Tucked away on four spectacular acres overlooking a tranquil freshwater pond, this extraordinary Cold Spring Harbor estate offers a rare balance of complete seclusion and effortless convenience. Hidden behind a gated entrance and surrounded by nature, the property evokes the feeling of a private country retreat while remaining just moments from the charming village, harbor, acclaimed schools, and every amenity that makes Cold Spring Harbor one of Long Island's most coveted communities. Extensively rebuilt and expanded in 2019, the residence seamlessly blends timeless architecture with sophisticated modern design. A dramatic two-story foyer welcomes you into the heart of the home, offering stunning sight lines through the residence to the resort-like pool and picturesque grounds beyond. The magnificent two-story great room is centered around an impressive floor-to-ceiling stone wood-burning fireplace and flows effortlessly into the open-concept living and dining spaces, designer kitchen, and elegant bar area. Expansive windows flood the interiors with natural light while framing breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape. Designed for both grand entertaining and comfortable everyday living, the home offers an exceptional collection of gathering spaces. A dedicated first-floor media room with a 4K projector delivers an immersive cinematic experience, while the inviting billiard room features its own stone fireplace, reclaimed barn wood walls and beams, creating the perfect setting for entertaining. Modern conveniences include a Sonos sound system with integrated speakers in the kitchen, great room, and pool area, providing effortless indoor-outdoor enjoyment. The thoughtfully designed second level showcases rich walnut flooring throughout and is highlighted by the luxurious primary suite. A private sanctuary featuring soaring vaulted ceilings, oversized walk-in closets, a private balcony, and a spa-inspired en suite bath complete with a soaking tub, sauna, and refined finishes with the addition of seasonal water views of the harbor make this retreat truly exceptional. Five additional bedrooms and a conveniently located laundry room complete the second floor. Two of the secondary bedrooms are tucked away in their own private wing, separated by an inviting sitting area and served by a private rear staircase, creating an ideal layout for guests, extended family, or multigenerational living while preserving comfort and privacy. The outdoor living experience is equally impressive. A saltwater Gunite pool with a sunken spa is surrounded by lush landscaping and expansive entertaining spaces, offering the ultimate setting for relaxation. Gentle natural springs wind through the property, adding a peaceful soundtrack to this remarkable setting. A breezeway with double electric entry doors enhances both convenience and security to inner courtyard and three-car garage. Finished with a classic cedar shingle roof and crafted with exceptional attention to detail throughout, this remarkable estate presents an exceedingly rare opportunity to own one of the North Shore's most private and captivating residences. Here, the sounds of flowing springs, the beauty of the freshwater pond, and an unparalleled sense of privacy create the feeling of being a world away yet the vibrant waterfront village and everyday conveniences of Cold Spring Harbor remain just minutes from your gate.
Long Island, located between New York Harbor and the Atlantic Ocean, is a coastal and suburban New York neighborhood with barrier beaches and commuter rail hubs. The neighborhood’s energy concentrates around the Jamaica Station complex, where LIRR platforms, bus bays, and street-level storefronts create a constant current of movement. Housing shifts from compact prewar village centers to postwar capes and split-levels, with marinas and bayfront parks shaping daily routines. Jones Beach State Park and the Long Island Aquarium serve as signature day-trip anchors. The Paramount in Huntington and the Nassau County Museum of Art add a cultural throughline beyond the shoreline. Farm stands, delis, and small main streets stitch together a landscape defined by parkways, dunes, and bays.
