A one-of-a-kind residence in the Incorporated Village of Huntington Bay offers a rare transitional design, where the openness and clean lines of mid-century living are softened by the warmth and artistry of traditional craft. A Belgian-block circular drive sweeps past lush, layered gardens to a crisp white brick facade, and the moment you step inside, light and character greet you in equal measure.
The living spaces feel bright and architectural. A vaulted ceiling, clerestory windows and a wall of glass fill the rooms with sun, while an oversized fireplace with a hand-carved mantel and a built-in bar make entertaining effortless. Hand-carved paneling from the Astor Estate brings a rare richness to the dining room, which opens to a balcony overlooking the property.
The kitchen with wood cabinetry and granite counters opens to a lovely brick-walled courtyard, a private spot for morning coffee or a quiet moment outdoors. Flexible bedroom suites, a private lower-level retreat and an all-season solarium give the floor plan room to flex around how you actually live.
The grounds are lush and layered and in bloom across the seasons. A hand-painted poolside mural by noted Long Island artist Hans Gabali turns the setting into something you will not find anywhere else. Framed by mature maples and seasonal blooms, the whole property reads like a private park, with a heated in-ground pool and hot tub at its heart.
The community offers the added privacy of private roads and its own police. Minutes to Huntington’s beaches, town and marinas, and within an hour of Manhattan, this is a rare offering for a buyer who values character, light and a life close to the water.
