5,080 square feet

House proud

Built in 2011, this Nantucket-style home is sited on 1.8 acres in Southold’s Paradise Point Community. It includes 994 feet of shoreline, a deep-water dock and expansive views on three sides across the bay to Shelter Island. The house optimizes its waterside location with views from the semi wrap-around deck and inside the home.

“The rooms all take advantage of the water views with transom windows and beautiful light coming in,” says Nancy Cervelli, who is co-listing the property with Barry Novick at Daniel Gale Sotheby’s International Realty. She said Paradise Point is a sought-after upscale community of homes on the bay.

What’s the plan?

A front foyer is flanked by a dining room and sitting room with a fireplace and adjacent office before leading to the 617-square-foot great room. Overlooking the back yard, the great room features double height windows, vaulted ceilings and a gas fireplace at the back of the house. A wrap-around deck along one side and the entire back overlooks the yard and pool. A 312-square-foot primary bedroom suite on this level included two walk-in closets and separate rooms for the bath and commode. On the second level, three generously sized bedrooms share a common sitting room/office and two hallway full bathrooms.

What’s cooking?

Overlooking the bay and pool, the 450-squre-foot chef’s kitchen is equipped with stainless-steel appliances and granite counters top the custom cabinetry. There’s ample space to create a casual dining in between the kitchen and great room.

What else?

“The foyer presents a dramatic and exquisite first impression to what follows,” says Cervelli, referencing the home’s high ceilings and “large gracious rooms.” On the ground level, a covered patio is poolside,

One cool thing

The home’s extreme privacy, protected boat basin and access to private waterfront is very hard to find in this area, as well as the luxury of having a waterside swimming pool. This home offers even more privacy with its location at the end of the street.

Agent’s callout 

This is about the location — it’s almost like its own little compound and is a very unusual configuration,” Cervelli says. 

Location, location, location

History buffs will appreciate the home’s proximity—4.2 miles from the town of Southold (pop. 6,286), the first English settlement on Long Island, founded in 1640. For nature- and water-enthusiasts, there are parks a ‘plenty! Basin Road is .1 mile to Paradise Point, the section of land jutting into the bay; 1.2 miles to Cedar Beach County Park, 1.3 miles to the 14-acre historic Shellfisher Preserve under the stewardship of the Peconic Land Trust.
