East End

The thriving backyard spans 200 feet of West Neck Harbor waterfront, packing in a pool, a private dock, stone patios, and multiple areas to just lay back and take it all in.
What We Love: Recent renovations added dozens of new windows and doors to the property, uncovering views of the harbor and the Peconic Bay from the kitchen, the living room, the barn/three-car garage/guest apartment—from every single room.

Inside, there’s a family room with 17-foot ceilings, a southern-exposure solarium, three bedrooms, and two-and-a-half bathrooms.
