Rosegate is an enchanting mini estate that harkens back to golden age of the North Shore of Long Island. This architectural gem has been thoughtfully expanded over the years into a stately 7-bedroom Colonial, set on 2.85 acres of lush, storybook grounds. Every inch of Rosegate exudes character and charm from its Ludowici style roof to its diamond trellis ivy covered walls. Step through the front entrance, and you’re greeted by exquisite hand-painted murals that set the tone for the artistry and elegance within. The sun-drenched living room and formal dining room, with their graceful proportions and classic design, provide an exceptional setting for entertaining, while timeless details like wood-pegged and parquet floors along with elegant archways elevate every space. For those seeking quiet retreat, the library leads to a cozy bedroom (or office) with a beamed ceiling and French doors that open to the serene pool area. A touch of convenience and sophistication, the home also features an elevator for easy access to the second-floor primary suite. A separate guest wing with three bedrooms and a full bath offers privacy and comfort for visitors. The outdoors are a masterpiece in their own right. The gated front garden with whitewashed brick sitting walls and specimen plantings is highlighted by a charming center fountain. The rear garden, with its sweeping lawn, showcases a sparkling Gunite pool surrounded by a bluestone patio—perfect for summer gatherings. A charming greenhouse by the 3 car garage completes this idyllic retreat. Steeped in history yet updated with modern comforts, Rosegate is more than a home—it’s a timeless escape that captures the heart and imagination.
Oyster Bay, located between Cold Spring Harbor and Bayville, is a waterfront and historic Glen Cove neighborhood with a working harbor and leafy, estate-era streetscapes. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Audrey Avenue at Spring Street, where coffee counters, independent boutiques, and old-school storefronts set a walkable, small-town cadence. The Oyster Bay Railroad Museum, the Oyster Bay Historical Society’s Earle-Wightman House, and the Planting Fields Arboretum State Historic Park act as cultural anchors. Shingle-style homes and classic Colonials mix with village-era cottages near the shore. Waterfront paths and marinas frame daily routines with salt-air views. Beaches and preserves shape the landscape from cove to bluff.
