Welcome to this beautifully maintained ranch set on a generous, fully fenced lot in the heart of Islip. From the moment you pull up the long private driveway to the attached one-car garage, you'll appreciate the classic curb appeal — shake siding, brick accents, and a manicured front lawn shaded by mature trees. Step inside to a bright, open layout with gleaming hardwood floors and recessed lighting throughout the main living areas. The spacious living room flows into a formal dining area with ceiling fan, which opens directly to the updated eat-in kitchen. The kitchen features crisp white cabinetry, butcher block countertops, stone tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances including a gas range, dishwasher, and French-door refrigerator, plus a breakfast bar and sliding glass doors to the rear deck. A second den/family room with its own private entry offers flexible space for guests, a home office, or extended family. The home offers multiple generously sized bedrooms, including a primary suite with ample closet space, along with additional bedrooms served by a full bath with tub/shower and a convenient half bath with vanity. Rooms are freshly painted and move-in ready, with hardwood and carpeted options throughout. Outside is where this property truly shines. A large composite deck with gazebo overlooks an expansive paver patio — perfect for entertaining — leading to a sprawling, level lawn enclosed by white vinyl fencing. A separate covered patio area, raised garden beds, a children's playset, and an oversized storage shed with windows complete the picture. There's room here for everything. Additional features include central air, forced air heat, a full attached garage with workshop area and generator storage, and a prime location close to schools, shopping, parkways, the LIRR, and Islip's beaches and marinas. A rare opportunity to own a spacious, updated home with an entertainer's yard in a convenient Islip location. Won't last!

Listing by Justin LaSalla• Vantage Realty Partners
Islip, located between Great South Bay and the Connetquot River State Park Preserve, is a waterfront and suburban Brentwood neighborhood with salt-air marinas and leafy parkland. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Main Street near Islip Avenue, where low-slung storefronts, cafés, and local services set a steady, walkable rhythm. Architectural cues lean toward mid-century ranches and Cape-style homes, with pockets of newer infill along wider arterials. Islip’s shoreline geography shapes weekends around docks, bay views, and boat traffic. Community pillars include the Bayard Cutting Arboretum, the historic Islip Art Museum, and the Sayville Ferry Service for Fire Island days. Rail service at Islip station adds a commuter cadence without overpowering the residential feel.
