CHERISH IS THE WORD ON SHELTER ISLAND. This sweet Shelter Island Heights gem, built in 1890 and featured in design magazines, is one of the very few Heights homes with the majority of its original details intact, unadulterated by modern hands. Step into the front parlour, from the double doors off the front veranda. Beyond are a formal dining room and side parlour. All three rooms offer plenty of natural sunlight from its many windows. The kitchen, essentially the only room recently updated, is both whimsical and efficient. The front and rear of the home have wonderfully sweet screened porches for relaxation, entertainment and peeking at the birds in the trees and shrubs throughout this park-like setting. The second floor has a master bedroom which extends from the front of the home to the rear, a real luxury for its day, as well as two additional spacious and sunny bedrooms, all with elevated ceilings. A hallway full bath, replete with exposed beadboard and original porcelain tub, is for use of all bedrooms. Just off the kitchen is a back porch with full bath. Steps from the porch is a studio with vaulted ceilings and barn doors. The grounds are mellifluous and invite one to wander through, meditate in its secret spots and enjoy fireflies dancing about. An outdoor dining area calls out for an summertime evening of grilling and fun times. Bordering parkland and located in an area with multi-million dollar homes, and within close proximity to Beach Club which is included with the home, this enchanting home is a rare gem that must be seen to be appreciated.View full listing information on corcoran.com
