About the Listing KACA01 - 131553

Steeped in local history, this charming 5-bedroom residence—once an Inn and family farm—dates back to 1850 and was originally part of a six-acre estate. Today, it proudly rests on a rare and expansive .84-acre flat lot, offering endless opportunities for outdoor enjoyment, entertaining, or potential expansion. Recent clearing and landscaping have beautifully revealed the property’s natural character and park-like setting. Perfect for car enthusiasts, contractors, or multigenerational living (with proper permits), the grounds include an oversized detached two-car garage plus a spacious shed, formerly a chicken coop, ready to be restored or creatively repurposed. Inside, the flexible floor plan blends historic charm with functional living. The main level features a bedroom and full bath, ideal for guests or a possible formal dining room conversion. An enclosed sun porch adds inviting warmth—flooded with natural light and offering versatile space for a cozy sitting area or additional storage. Upstairs, you’ll find four generous bedrooms, including one with a walk-in cedar closet and another well-suited as a library, home office, or den. A second full bath has been tastefully updated with a whirlpool tub and separate shower. The secondary staircase adds both charm and convenience, providing easy access to the kitchen. Period details are thoughtfully preserved throughout, including original interior doors and hardware, intricate moldings, built-ins, and hardwood flooring, featuring wide-plank floors upstairs. Modern updates include gas heating and cooking, Andersen windows, vinyl siding, newer roof, 200-amp electric service, and in-ground sprinklers. Ideally located near I-495, shopping, train station, and MacArthur Airport, this property presents a rare opportunity to own a piece of Long Island’s history. Potential commercial use or subdivision (buyers to verify with the Town of Islip).
