Private Colonial Retreat on 3.2 Acres in the Village of Centre Island Behind the gates of one of the North Shore’s most exclusive enclaves, this newly renovated four-bedroom Colonial sits on 3.2 enchanting, fully fenced acres. It offers a rare blend of privacy, tranquility, and refined living. The Village of Centre Island is an intimate community of just 174 households and fewer than 450 residents, and this home lets you enjoy the quiet that so few places still offer. Inside, the main rooms frame sweeping property views, so the beauty of the grounds is always in sight. The home has been extensively renovated with a designer’s culinary kitchen made for both everyday living and effortless entertaining, plus beautifully updated bathrooms throughout. Outside, a sparkling heated pool invites long summer afternoons and evening swims, set within grounds that are completely enclosed for peace of mind. Maintenance-free Hardie Plank siding and AZEK trim, a new driveway, and well water complete the package. This is a home you can simply move into and enjoy. Life here moves at a gentler pace. The renowned Seawanhaka Corinthian Yacht Club, celebrated for its storied sailing tradition, is within walking distance, and a public beach is just steps away. A private police force and a single point of entry give the village an exceptional sense of security and seclusion. The charming nearby towns of Bayville and Locust Valley are minutes away, with fine dining, boutique shopping, and welcoming community gathering spots. A private sanctuary that is quiet, secure, and beautifully renewed. Opportunities like this are rare. Contact us today to arrange an exclusive preview.

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.
