House proud
Situated on a village lot, this cedar-shake home with its brick front walkway, courtyard-style backyard and manageable scale has a cozy townhouse feel. William Raveis listing agent Nicholas Planamento calls it “simple and perfect,” evoking a Brooklyn vibe. Previous renovations updated the home, which was lightly used as a weekend home by its current owners.
What’s the plan?
A covered front doorway leads into a light-filled living room with built-in shelves, which in turn leads into the eat-in kitchen. The second level is devoted to two bedrooms, which share access to a full bathroom. The home has the original wide-planked floors in most rooms. The unfinished basement is used for the mechanicals and storage.
What’s cooking?
The eat-in kitchen is bright and offers access to the backyard patio through a windowed door. It features stainless-steel appliances, wood-painted cabinetry and butcher-block counters. From here, you can access a laundry closet and a full bathroom.
What else?
There is outdoor dining and a BBQ area on the brick courtyard/patio and a firepit area within the landscaped back yard. The barn-red outbuilding is currently used for storage and has potential to be creatively adapted for overflow entertaining. There is an outdoor shower and a one-car garage.
Agent’s callout
“This is an incredible opportunity to be on the North Fork, in a village where a car is not needed, on a lot of minimal lawn care and maintenance and near marinas—all well under $1 million.”
Location, location, location
Planamento says the beauty of this home is that its neighborhood of Founder’s Landing hugs the bay and offers a water lifestyle that is much larger than the physical space of the house. “You’re right at the bay and at the center is the Founder’s Landing Wharf House, which you can rent by the day if you live in the district. You can also keep a boat at the marina.”
The home is .6 miles to the Founder’s Landing Park and about the same distance to the Southold station of the Long Island Rail Road. Town Creek and other public space managed by the Southold Park District is .2 miles away and available for use by tax paying residents of the Southold Park District.
