Welcome to 28 Shore Road—A rare waterfront gem in the heart of historic Douglas Manor. This stately Queen Anne Victorian blends timeless architectural detail with thoughtful modern updates throughout. Set on a quarter-acre corner lot with sweeping views of Little Neck Bay, the home features 6 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, and a layout that perfectly balances grandeur and warmth. Original hardwood floors, stained glass windows, 10’ ceilings, and intricate moldings showcase the home’s character, while the chef’s kitchen—with Sub-Zero refrigerator, AGA range, and radiant-heated floors—caters beautifully to modern living. Ideal for entertaining, the home includes a formal dining room with a Mercer-tiled fireplace, a sun-drenched conservatory with bay views, and a spacious wraparound porch perfect for hosting get-togethers by the water. Upstairs, the serene primary suite features a spa-like bath, walk-in closet, fireplace, and a cozy built-in window seat. The third floor offers even more space for guests, home offices, or creative pursuits. You'll also enjoy front-row seats to breathtaking sunsets over the bay—visible from nearly every room in the house. Additional highlights include a full basement with excellent storage, a detached two-story garage with loft, and mature landscaping surrounding the property. Located in the waterfront enclave of Douglas Manor—one of New York City’s only private historic districts—residents enjoy exclusive access to a yacht club, mooring rights, a vibrant boating lifestyle, and quick access to the LIRR at Douglaston Station, making the Manhattan commute both fast and convenient. With scenic shoreline and quiet tree-lined streets, this home offers more than just historic beauty—it’s a lifestyle.

R1-1
Low-Density Non-Contextual Residence District
R1 districts are leafy, low-density neighborhoods of large, single-family detached homes on spacious lots. Resembling many suburbs, these districts are mapped in a few areas of the city, such as Todt Hill (R1-1) in Staten Island, Jamaica Estates (R1-2) in Queens, and Fieldston (R1-2) in the Bronx. R1-2A is mapped in Forest Hills in Queens.; There are three R1 districts. Although new homes in R1-1 districts must be on larger and wider lots than homes in R1-2 and R1-2A districts, generous yard requirements and high open space ratio (OSR) or lot coverage regulations preserve the open space that characterizes all R1 districts. The floor area ratio (FAR) of 0.5 and the sizeable required lot area tend to produce big, roomy houses. The maximum height of buildings in R1-1 and R1-2 districts is not fixed but is governed by a sky exposure plane;; contextual regulations in R1-2A districts produce buildings that maintain neighborhood scale and character with a maximum perimeter wall of 25 feet, a maximum building height of 35 feet and a front yard as deep as a neighboring yard. Auto ownership rates are high and, as in other lower-density districts which are often distant from mass transit, one off-street parking space is required for each dwelling unit.
