This builder's own home sits proudly atop a hill overlooking Hylan Boulevard, offering views of Great Kills Harbor and a rare sense of privacy. Living here means embracing the best of Staten Island's coastal charm — you're just a short walk to the marina, where you can dock your boat and stroll home after a day on the water. The location is unbeatable: close to shopping, dining, and transportation, making it a commuter's dream while still feeling worlds away from the bustle below. The home's original Tongue and Groove framework and foundation were carefully preserved, honoring its craftsmanship and history. Every other element was completely renovated — from wiring and plumbing to insulation and finishes — resulting in a modern, open-concept layout that's perfect for entertaining. The low-maintenance yard, finished entirely in concrete and pavers, provides a clean, polished outdoor space ideal for gatherings or quiet evenings. With approximately 2,700 square feet, this measurement does not include the fully finished basement, which features a private walk-in entrance from the side and opens onto its own secluded patio. This versatile space offers complete privacy and is ideal for hosting guests, creating a recreation area, or enjoying peaceful downtime. The third floor is exceptionally spacious and includes a large private deck, offering elevated views and a tranquil retreat. Whether used as a guest suite, home office, or lounge, it's a space that feels both expansive and intimate. This home combines timeless structure with modern luxury — a showcase of thoughtful design, craftsmanship, and location. It's perfect for those who value privacy, convenience, and the beauty of harbor-side living.
