Fortune, harmony, and prosperity await you at this rare find in the heart of Great Neck Gardens. This 1951 classic blends a distinct mid-century modern feel with contemporary convenience. While it retains the thoughtful, original proportions of its era, a substantial 2006 renovation brought the home up to speed for today's lifestyles. With 3,381 square feet, five bedrooms (convertible to seven) and four full bathrooms, this home offers the scale and comfort you’ve been looking for.
Brand new wood floors on the first floor create a fresh, updated feel while preserving its historic character. The main level is designed for both grand entertaining and everyday living, featuring a spacious formal dining room for special occasions (or to be converted into a bedroom!). The home's elegant showcase living room has a central hearth mantle with wood burning fireplace: a timeless gathering place. The space flows seamlessly into a bright breakfast nook and an open chef's kitchen with massive sliding door windows and an advantageous orientation to the backyard. The second floor provides a private retreat in the master suite, which features striking 12-foot ceilings, a massive walk-in closet, and a deep, romantic soaking tub in the ensuite master bath. The second floor also offers 4 more bedrooms plus a serene guest wing that opens to an unfinished sundeck, ready for personalization to the future buyer's specifications. The home's top floor is a highly versatile space that offers endless possibilities as an optional media room, a home office, teenager penthouse, or a private gym, all supported by an expansive crawl space with five separate dedicated openings for ample storage.
The home's 8,500 square foot lot is perfectly sized to offer a private, tranquil outdoor retreat. The backyard is ideal for all seasons, offering an inviting patio space for summer activities with a massive open lawn area surrounding the home's lot. The grounds are properly manicured with a clean and organized look that's easy on the eyes. The fully equipped laundry room also doubles as a mudroom as it serves to connect the garage to the kitchen and living area. The two-car garage and large driveway easily fit 6 total cars with room for more. The exterior, which features outdoor motion sensor lights, has been recently refreshed with new grouting, roof drainage, and gutters. The property also boasts reinforced aluminum on the bay windows and a recently replaced hot water tank, ensuring the home is not only pleasant but also meticulously maintained. Its curb appeal is heightened by its prized position on a corner lot which is a highly-regarded feature that offers elevated architectural presence, increased natural light, and potential for greater value over time. The flow of natural light throughout the entire property encourages positive energy and calm feelings.
