Property Description

Nestled in the highly sought-after Centerport private Huntington Beach Community Association and located within the award-winning Harborfields Central School District, this is a rare opportunity to own one of the North Shore’s most captivating waterview homes. Offering breathtaking panoramic views of Centerport Harbor and beyond, this charming circa-1930 beach cottage combines timeless character with thoughtful modern upgrades.

Filled with natural light and coastal charm, this meticulously maintained 2-bedroom, 1-bath home welcomes you with gleaming hardwood floors, an inviting living space with a classic wood-burning fireplace—perfect for cozy evenings year-round. The newly rebuilt eat-in kitchen is beautifully appointed with custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a gas range, creating the perfect blend of style and functionality.

Enter through the kitchen slider onto an elevated deck where spectacular harbor views create the ultimate setting for morning coffee, outdoor dining, or sunset relaxation. Also on the main level are two comfortable bedrooms, a brand-new full bath, a small space for an office which leads into a spacious, charming three-season room ideal as a reading nook, or creative space.

The full lower-level basement offers abundant storage and future possibilities. Just a few hundred feet from the private Huntington Beach Community beach, boating, and waterfront recreation (HBCA dues only $350 annually), this turnkey Centerport beach cottage offers both immediate enjoyment and exceptional expansion potential—whether as an intimate weekend retreat, year-round residence, or the foundation for your dream North Shore waterfront home for under $1MM. Truly rare.

Low taxes of just $8,278, with additional savings possible through STAR.

A truly special Long Island waterfront opportunity —where every day feels like a vacation.
