Stately Postmodern Brick Colonial, Tall Oaks, Oyster Bay Cove. Poised on two exquisitely manicured acres within the storied enclave of Tall Oaks, this majestic almost 6,200 sq.ft brick colonial stands as a masterwork of scale and sophistication, gracefully sited within the coveted Cold Spring Harbor School District. A dramatic two-story entry foyer sets the tone, opening onto a sun-drenched, free-flowing floor plan where oversized rooms and soaring floor-to-ceiling windows frame the surrounding landscape like living art. Rich hardwood floors unfurl throughout six sumptuous bedrooms and six-and-a-half baths, each detail composed with quiet refinement. The main-floor primary suite is a study in indulgent privacy — a serene retreat appointed with a spa-caliber bath offering both soaking tub and glass-enclosed shower, with direct access to the pool and grounds beyond, and an adjoining annex effortlessly adaptable as a nursery, study, or private fitness room. Five additional en-suite bedrooms lend graceful accommodation to family and guests, while a mezzanine level reveals its own secluded en-suite bedroom paired with a generous sitting room - an inspired retreat for extended stays. Beyond, the grounds unfold in quiet splendor: an inground saltwater pool, sweeping patios, and a built-in BBQ set the stage for effortless, elegant entertaining amid lush, professionally curated gardens. Below, a capacious finished lower level opens through full sliders to the side yard, with additional unfinished space affording abundant storage. An extraordinary residence, distinguished by pedigree and place, in one of the North Shore's most rarefied addresses.

Listing by Neena Chowdhary• Daniel Gale Sothebys Intl Rlty
Syosset Woods, located between Jericho Turnpike and the Long Island Expressway, is a residential and wooded Syosset neighborhood with curving cul-de-sacs and mature tree canopy. The streets read as late-20th-century colonials and split-levels set back behind broad lawns and layered landscaping. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Jericho Turnpike corridor near Berry Hill Road, where independent eateries, small professional storefronts, and everyday errands create a steady hum. Community touchstones include the Syosset-Woodbury Community Park, the Syosset Public Library, and the Syosset/Woodbury Music Fair. Trail-like park paths and pocket greenspaces shape a calm, outdoors-forward routine. The Syosset LIRR station anchors regional connections while keeping the interior streets quiet.
