Experience a rare opportunity to own one of Nissequogue’s most private and prestigious luxury compounds, set in the heart of the sought-after Short Beach enclave. Surrounded by a protected wildlife sanctuary, this extraordinary estate includes two separate parcels: an approximately 8,500-square-foot... custom-built residence with a two-bedroom guest cottage on 2.49 acres, and an adjacent 2-acre vacant buildable lot available separately or as part of a combined 4.49-acre offering. The flexibility of purchasing one or both parcels presents an unparalleled opportunity for private compound living or investment. Designed with Feng Shui principles and a rare south-facing orientation, the home was built in 2011 and intentionally planned to welcome abundant natural light, positive energy, and harmonious flow throughout. Walls of panoramic windows imported from Germany provide breathtaking views of the lush surroundings, offering privacy, tranquility, and effortless indoor-outdoor living. The main residence features six spacious en-suite bedrooms, each with its own gas fireplace, private balcony, and elegant finishes. The primary suite is a true sanctuary, offering water views, a spa-style bathroom with a sun-filled round soaking tub, radiant heated floors, and a generous walk-in closet. The chef’s kitchen is outfitted with top-tier Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances, custom cabinetry, and a large center island, opening seamlessly into expansive formal and informal living and dining spaces ideal for entertaining. This estate is thoughtfully designed with sustainable and luxury features throughout. Radiant heating has been installed beneath all tile flooring for year-round comfort. Hot water is efficiently powered by solar energy, reducing long-term operating costs and supporting a greener lifestyle. The property also features a long recycled glass driveway, a spacious three-car garage with loft storage, and imported roof tiles from Spain that reflect both craftsmanship and longevity. The separate two-bedroom guest cottage includes its own kitchen and private entrance, making it ideal for extended family, in-laws, staff, or guests. Whether you need flexible multi-generational living or seek the perfect North Shore retreat, this residence offers unparalleled comfort and versatility. Zoned for horses, the acreage offers space for equestrian use, additional outbuildings, or recreational lifestyle enhancements. Located just minutes from Long Island Sound beaches, The Knox School, Stony Brook University and Hospital, and the Saint James LIRR station, this rare offering is only 60 miles from New York City while feeling a world away. The Village of Nissequogue is known for its expansive estates, natural preserves, and luxury waterfront lifestyle, making this home ideal for discerning buyers looking for elegance, land, and privacy. This listing is part of a 3-property portfolio that can be purchased individually or together. Options include the main residence and cottage on 2.49 acres for $5,299,000, the 2-acre vacant lot for $1,200,000, or both properties combined as a 4.49-acre private compound for $6,499,000. This listing reflects the 4.49-acre parcel with the residence, guest cottage and land. Properties are listed separately on MLS. Taxes include Village of Nissequogue. Continue reading
