Shelter Island Harborfront Classic

Set on 2.3+/- acres with 285′ of waterfront on Coecles Harbor, this handsome traditional possesses a restored, protected private boat basin, one of just three left on Shelter Island. The illuminated fieldstone walk to the front door crosses a bridge over a pond inhabited by koi, frogs and perennials. Intricate woodwork, reminiscent of the Gilded Age, is throughout the home, with the layout conducive to large gatherings, while maintaining a sense of privacy. The sunlit double height foyer leads to a spacious living room with a wet bar, fireplace and panoramic water views. An all-season sunroom off the living room overlooks the harbor, pond and hydrangeas, with doors to a 500+/- sq. ft. waterside entertainment deck. The kitchen is conveniently placed between the formal living room and the family room-dining area, with a breakfast bar, Smallbone cabinetry, double ovens, and Thermador and Viking appliances. The family room-dining area has a wall of windows, fireplace, and French doors to the grounds. A first floor library, which can be used for overflow guests, has a full bath. On the second floor there is a guest wing with three spacious bedroom suites with vaulted ceilings, two of them with water views. The master bedroom has its own staircase, vaulted ceilings, fireplace, mahogany deck with soaring water views, and spa-like bath with teak soaking tub, double sinks, dressing and vanity areas. For boaters, there is a fully equipped dock with electric and water, along with a secondary, deeded deep-water association day-dock. The park-like setting offers established trees and scenic vistas from every vantage point; indeed, the rugged western point of the property is dramatic and inspiring, while on the opposite point, there is a 75-foot stretch of sandy beach. The outer portion of the property features a wrought iron shore front gazebo, complete with lighting, the site of many memorable celebrations. Association tennis is just across the lane.
