Picture a rural drive through farm fields and vineyards to a short ferry boat ride from Greenport’s harbor, then a scenic meander along Shelter Island’s picturesque coves. Continue passing through a golf course and arrive at your home in Hay Beach, across the street from a sandy shoreline with a magnificent sunset and bay views directly in front of your home.
This could be you this year.
The 1900 sq ft 3+ bedroom 3 bath shingled home is 100% turn-key renovated on a shy acre with a recently built 16 x 40’ heated salt-water Gunite pool in a sprawling sundrenched yard. Once inside, soaring double-height 20 ft ceilings meet you at the front door in a welcoming foyer.
A recent thorough transformation included new oak floors, new stair balustrade, newel posts and handrails, and three stunning new baths, and a fully reimagined modern kitchen. The luminous loft-like open plan great room features a wall of glass with French doors to the backyard deck and a hearth-sized wood-burning fireplace anchoring a spacious (yet cozy) living room and dining area. The recently completed kitchen boasts premium Bertazzoni appliances and a generous 10.5-foot prep island with seating, ideal for both casual meals and mingling with guests.
On the ground floor, a large bonus room with an adjacent full bath functions as an extra 4th bedroom with a walk-in closet and ample room for a home office.
Upstairs are 2 well-sized guest bedrooms, one with water views, which share a hall bathroom. Connected by a bridge overlooking the living room and foyer is the sexy primary suite, which has water views and a superb spa bath with a rain showerhead and body sprays.
The unfinished lower level is partially above grade and presents as an easy future conversion to additional living space with a fireplace and plenty of natural light via windows and glass sliders offering access to the grassy backyard.
This exceptional home combines tranquil living with proximity to many sandy beaches, Dering Harbor Village, and Gardiners Bay Country Club, providing an ideal setting to enjoy all the unique attractions Shelter Island offers.
