One of the rare Shelter Island Heights homes that is in original condition and sited in a lovely park-like setting with views of the grove adjacent to historic Union Chapel. Built in 1890, this summer cottage is bordered with tall privet and has French doors both on the first floor and the second floor, unifying the outdoors to the interiors. A spacious screened porch doubles as an outdoor living room in the summertime. Just inside the entry is the living room, which comprises the entire width of the front of the home, sitting parlor and formal dining room. The kitchen is in the rear overlooking the garden, and has an outdoor screened foyer with full bath, sitting area and serving for outdoor dining. The second floor features a master suite with cathedral ceilings, French doors with petite balcony, and dressing area. There are also two additional guest rooms, also with cathedral ceilings and hall bath with original ball and claw tub. Just outside the rear entry is a guest suite with reading and relaxation area. The grounds are exceptionally large for the Heights and invite one to wander and observe nature. Located on a quiet lane within stone's throw to ferry, this is Hamptons country living at its best. Square footage shown includes 300 +/- sq. ft. guesthouse. Penelope Moore, Lic Assoc Broker, 917-208-5519, info@penelope-moore.com.
