Orient – Set high above the Long Island Sound in the storied enclave known as The Hill, this rare offering captures the essence of classic Orient living. Authentic, timeless, and grand in scale, the home showcases architectural details including five fireplaces, elegant 16-over-1 windows, and a front entry framed by original sidelights. The 1.3-acre grounds unfold across rolling terrain with mature landscaping, stonework, and meandering garden paths. A sparkling swimming pool sits tucked into the landscape, creating a private retreat. Inside, generous rooms and a waterside screened porch invite gatherings large and small, all set against the backdrop of unforgettable sunsets. The home offers space, character, and endless potential. Cherished by the same family for 65 years, it now awaits its next steward. Properties of this caliber and in this location are exceedingly rare. It doesn’t get more quintessentially North Fork than this. A truly special Orient opportunity.
Rare and truly spectacular, this protected water view setting is one of Orient’s most exceptional offerings. Perched atop the historic hill of the former Mount Pleasant Hotel — once a beloved East End vacation retreat — this remarkable property captures the very essence of North Fork coastal living. Set on 2.87 acres (.87 on Munn Lane combined with 2.0 acres at 20400 Main Road) stretching from Munn Lane to the shoreline of the Great Peconic Bay, the property enjoys sweeping, unobstructed water views — including Bug Light and the Orient Yacht Club — direct bay frontage, and unforgettable sunrises and sunsets that paint the sky in every season. Originally dating to the 1940s, the spacious, quintessential North Fork cape-style home offers 4 bedrooms and 2 baths with generous living space and timeless charm, plus a walk-out basement with garage providing storage, workshop space, or future finishing potential. Whether you envision restoring its classic character, thoughtfully updating and expanding to maximize the panoramic views, or creating a waterfront compound, the setting offers extraordinary flexibility and long-term value. Imagine mornings spent with coffee overlooking the bay as sailboats drift by, afternoons kayaking or paddleboarding from your own shoreline, and evenings gathered with friends for sunset dinners under open skies. With ample acreage and privacy, there is room for gardens, a pool, entertaining terraces, or simply quiet moments surrounded by coastal breezes and the soothing sound of the water. Located in the North Fork’s easternmost hamlet, Orient is cherished for its maritime heritage, preserved farmland, beaches, boating, wineries, farm stands, and ferry access to New England — a peaceful coastal escape sought by buyers seeking privacy, nature, and authenticity. Here, life moves at a different pace — where beach walks, vineyard afternoons, and sunset evenings along the shore become part of your everyday rhythm.
You have to come back and see this house with me because it’s got that real “grandma’s classic 1940s winter weekend” energy in the best way that has been on the short list feeling. Picture this: it’s snowing outside, and we’re posted up in the big living room with the granite fireplace going. Knotty pine paneling, bookshelves built in on both sides of the hearth, and that warm glow that makes you feel settled. We’ve got Monopoly spread out on the coffee table, a huge bowl of popcorn (the legit kind made on the stove), and a record playing… then playing again… then somehow playing again because that’s what happens in houses like this. And of course there’s always that one person in our group who breaks out a slide projector, vacation slides from back in the day with the vintage clothing, the hair styles, taking in the moments. This house just fits that vibe perfectly. Then you walk into the sunroom and it changes gears: slate floors under your feet, water views straight out toward the beach, and it becomes the reading and lounging zone. Newspapers, magazines, tuna melts, tomato and rice soup. It’s basically the best relaxing room. Outside, it’s the kind of winter that makes you want to actually do stuff: we can go sledding down Munn Lane, then heading to the Causeway beach to see what the sea rolled in, perfect for seaglass collecting. That whole shoreline exploration where you come back with cold cheeks and a pocket full of little treasures. The layout is great too, wood floors through most of the house, and there’s that first-floor bedroom space (or den) with water views across the street that ties the whole country home feeling. It’s cozy, practical, and somehow still feels special. And the garage… three bays, but it doesn’t feel like “just a garage.” It feels like a workshop where projects are always in motion. The kind of place where sleds, bikes, paddleboards, clam rakes, fishing poles, beach chairs, and coolers all have a home. Here’s the kicker: it comes with two pieces of land, including the waterfront property across the street. So those water views? Protected. There’s about 50 feet of sandy beach, and the path to the water is right across the street, perfect for kayaking or paddleboarding in the summer. And sitting on the hill, the elevation is high enough that you’re not sitting stressing about flood issues. In the summer you’re up on the hill watching fireworks in Orient Village, with views from the living room, sunroom, and that main-floor bedroom/den. It’s peaceful, authentic, and it feels connected to the real local story—ice boat racing off Narrow River Road, oyster farming, clamming, fishing… all of it. This is what relaxation looks like when “country” means coastal, classic, and this is what we wanted.
