Formerly known as the Park Store, this charming cottage was the sole community general store in the Reeves Park Beach neighborhood of Long Island’s Baiting Hollow from the 1940s to the 1980s. The compact one-bedroom-plus-sleeping-loft home, asking $595,000, has been renovated with many of its original details preserved. Located in a highly desirable Long Island Sound beach community, the property includes an equally compact separate studio.
The home has been painted in crisp, contrasting colors. A wide front porch provides outdoor living space all summer long.
The cottage interior features lofted ceilings and hardwood floors. An open living and dining space is served by a bright, rustic, updated kitchen. There’s also a full-sized washer and dryer, a split heating and air conditioning system, and an oversized water heating tank, and the home is fully insulated for all-season comfort.
A full bedroom is big enough for two queen beds. A charming renovated bath has a window and a walk-in shower. A king-sized sleeping loft can also be used for extra storage.
The newly-built custom studio has electricity and would be perfect as a home office, art studio, or yoga studio.
Tucked away in a private spot, the beach cottage is surrounded by landscaped lawns and mature American holly trees on a half-acre property with an in-ground, automated irrigation system. One of the home’s biggest perks: It’s just steps from a well-maintained oak bluff beach–and not far from North Fork wine country, golf courses, farm stands, and shops.
