"Between every two pine trees is a doorway to a new world" ~John Muir. Located on the highly sought-after south end of Long Island, this 3+1 bedroom, 4-bath home offers a rare blend of privacy, space, and year-round resort-style living. Set across from the forested trails of Van Vliet Park with no front neighbours and a 100x150 lot, it's an ideal retreat for nature lovers, entertainers, and families alike. The main floor balances comfort and versatility, featuring a traditional living room with a gas line roughed in for a future fireplace, and a sunken family room warmed by a cozy gas fireplace. Upstairs, youll find three spacious bedrooms, including a king-sized primary retreat with double closets and its own private 2-piece ensuite, because sometimes, peace and personal space are non-negotiable. The secondary bedrooms are generously sized and share a full bath, offering flexibility for families, guests, or a home office setup with room to breathe. Downstairs, the fully finished basement includes a full bath and an ideal space for guests, teens, or that long-awaited home gym or studio. Step outside and exhale. The backyard is a true escape: a fully fenced saltwater pool (32x16, new liner 2019) with interlock surround and slide, a 7-person hot tub, and generous green space, all fully enclosed for privacy and peace of mind. Big-ticket updates include a new furnace, A/C, and hot water tank (2024), and a fully replaced septic system (2018). Add in a double garage, Bell Fibe internet, and a community that balances rural charm with city convenience, and you've found the kind of home that doesn't come around often, nor stick around long.
