Nestled in the heart of Shelter Island Heights, this delightful 1874 classic is within close proximity to the ferry, fine dining, shops, and the beach. Perched on a gentle hill with winding paths bordered by ferns, pachysandra, and tall cedars, the home boasts a wrap-around rocking chair porch and a lattice-covered rear porch, perfect for al fresco dining and relaxation. Step through the double doors into a formal front entry foyer, featuring a handsome staircase with decorative railings and spindles. The spacious living room, located to the left, spans nearly the entire depth of the home and includes a central fireplace. Adjacent to the living room is a first-floor bedroom with newly installed ductless heat and air conditioning. Another set of vintage glass-paneled double doors lead to a hallway connecting to a spacious kitchen and breakfast area, as well as a powder room, both also equipped with new ductless heat and air conditioning. Doors from this area open to the front porch and rear veranda, where the washer and dryer are conveniently located. The second floor features four additional bedrooms, each with its own unique character and raised ceiling heights. The front bedroom includes a screened door to a Juliet balcony and a walk-in closet with two windows, while the bedroom at the end of the long hallway offers vaulted ceilings, unique peek-a-boo windows set within the eaves with built-in screens and small latched doors. Two full baths are along the second floor hallway. The wood floors on the main floor have been recently sanded and stained, while the second-floor wood floors have been freshly painted. The interior woodwork and walls have been patched and painted, ensuring a move-in-ready experience. A driveway leads to the side entrance, for easy off-street parking. This vintage Heights home awaits you, offering both historical charm and modern comforts.
