Offering 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, and a spacious layout, this home presents an exceptional opportunity for buyers looking to renovate, personalize, and build lasting value. The dramatic vaulted living room creates an impressive sense of volume, while hardwood floors throughout much of the main level provide a timeless foundation for your vision. The kitchen and bathrooms are ready for updating, giving the next owner the chance to design a home that reflects their own style without paying a premium for someone else's finishes. A full basement offers additional space for recreation, storage, or future possibilities. Outside, the generous backyard provides room to entertain, relax, or expand your outdoor living, while mature trees and established landscaping add character to the property. With a solid layout, strong architectural bones, and endless potential, 249 Bay Shore Road is an opportunity to create something truly special.
Brightwaters Farm, located between Brightwaters Village and Bay Shore’s Main Street corridor, is a residential and waterfront-adjacent Bay Shore neighborhood with tree-lined blocks and a low-key, coastal feel. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Brightwaters Village Green and the nearby stretch of Montauk Highway where sidewalks, storefronts, and marina-bound traffic set the pace. Housing reads as classic Long Island—Cape Cods, Colonials, and well-kept mid-century homes—on calm streets that funnel toward the Great South Bay. Local rituals orbit Brightwaters Inn for dinner, Captain Bill’s for bayside seafood, and the Bay Shore Historical Society for a sense of place. Shoreline views and small-boat culture shape daily rhythms, while downtown Bay Shore adds coffee, galleries, and late-night bites. The result feels polished and relaxed, with water, parks, and walkable pockets doing the heavy lifting.
