Just a short drive south of Atlantic Avenue to the water's edge in South Freeport brings you to a wide and attractive cul-de-sac, home to a stately redwood and teak splanch with a grandeur all its own. From its relatively maintenance free landscape design, to the paver walk and driveway, to the stately double teak doors, the concept is at one with its environment and oh so pleasing to the eye.
As the door swings inward, you're greeted by a wide, tiled foyer offering glimpses of the magical spaces to come. Hosting gatherings, whatever time of year is a facile endeavor, the home lending itself to entertaining in style, with easy access to entrancing outdoor spaces at every turn. Magnificent water views, huge multi level decking and 75 feet of bulkheading, make this home a boater's dream. Prefer to just soak up the sun, with a cold drink at your side? Just stretch out on a lounge and allow nature's paintbrush to gently lull you into a sense of serenity.

Priced at $699,000, this one-of-a-kind, incredibly spacious splanch offers 4 generously proportioned bedrooms, the master suite, almost decadent in nature with its elegant master bath. You'll luxuriate in your whirlpool built for two as the sounds of the sea gently remind you of your good fortune to live here. With counterspace fit for a king and queen, opulent gold plated faucets, chandeliers to cast a warm glow and a heated towel rack to indulge you on those cold winter mornings, you might be inclined to linger just a little longer than necessary in this skylit room. And if all this, and a separate marble shower weren't enough, why not sit for a few moments, sipping a glass of wine on your private screened in deck, allowing the bay breezes to gently wash over you.
Though you might feel tempted to spend all your spare time in and around your home, the area offers many options for wiling away the hours on a lazy Sunday. The Nautical Mile with it's charming shops, wonderful seaside restaurants and all things maritime, it is a magnet for locals and visitors alike.
Occupying space adjacent to the Woodcleft Canal, on Woodcleft Avenue, you might enjoy walking along the esplanade or stopping for a quick bite at one of the street side eateries while tapping your toes to the music of one of the bands. For a serious meal, the options are many and the fare varied. Here is a comprehensive look at the restaurants of the Nautical Mile.
Another local attraction for area residents is Freeport's Waterfront Park. A quiet oasis with wonderful water views, easy parking and a playground for the children, it attracts its fair share of visitors on a sunny summer day.
Before you leave this bucolic setting, why not take one final look at the future in store for you. To see it in person, just give Geri Sonkin a call at 516-425-6098 and experience it for yourself.
