About this property

Secluded Bluff-Top Retreat on the Long Island Sound Set 242 feet above the Long Island Sound behind a newly gated entrance and new stone pillars, 3172 Sound Avenue offers rare privacy, wide-open water views and access to a secluded beach. The approach located 1/2 mile from Sound Ave down Terry Farm Road with a raised tree canopy, the approach to the house feels magical. The Mediterranean-style stucco villa sits among manicured lawns and mature woods, with arched windows, wrought-iron balconies, covered loggias and wraparound Ipe decks on both levels facing west for sunsets over the water. Inside, the two-story great room is built around an indoor pool under a wall of arched clerestory windows. Enjoy a workout in the gym with an amazing waterview. The open kitchen has an oversized granite island, custom cabinetry, a Sub-Zero refrigerator and a restored BlueStar range, with a fireside sitting area and a dining area that looks straight out over the Sound. To wind the day down enjoy the Media Room for Movie Night, which features a new short-throw projector and a 120-inch home theater screen.The first-floor primary suite has its own sitting room and French doors to a private water-view deck. There are two more first-floor bedrooms and a bath. Upstairs there are an additional two bedrooms and two baths to give family and guests their own space. On the finished lower level there is a recreation room with a full bath and 2 additional living spaces. A three-floor elevator, recently rebuilt and serviced, serves every level. Over the past two years the home has been renovated top to bottom. Outside: a new 30-year architectural roof, refinished Ipe decks with new retractable awnings, improved new landscaping and hardscape, and a double pea-gravel drive. The house is built to run extremely efficiently. A 52-panel solar array works alongside four Bosch electric heat pumps with Wi-Fi thermostats and UV air purification, an on-demand water heater, radiant floor heat, and a fully foam-insulated, climate-controlled attic that houses the upstairs AC equipment and adds generous storage. Ceramic window tint cuts heat and glare, the pool runs on a Pentair ozone and UV system with an inline heater and robotic cleaner, and new electric fireplaces replace the old propane units. For peace of mind there is a whole-house Generac generator on a 2,000-gallon buried propane tank, a refurbished gas furnace, updated plumbing throughout, a new steam shower and new central Vacuflo. 2 tesla chargers. A greener and cleaner luxury turnkey waterfront home on the North Fork ready to move right in.

Questions to ask before you buy

Questions worth investigating for any waterfront property. They are not claims that this property has a problem or meets any condition.

  1. Who owns the shoreline and the land under the water, and are there easements or public-access rights along it?Ownership can stop at a high-water line, a survey line or a seawall. A title search and survey answer this, not the listing.
  2. Is a dock, slip, lift or mooring included, and do the rights transfer to you?Docks can be shared, leased, assigned by an association or held under a permit that does not automatically transfer.
  3. What permits exist for the dock, seawall or other shoreline structures, and what would new work require?Shoreline work is often regulated by local, state and federal agencies.
  4. How much does the water level change by season, by tide or by reservoir management?Depth at a dock in one season can differ a lot in another.
  5. What does flood insurance cost for this property, and what does the current flood map show?Get a quote from an insurer or agent. A flood zone is not a premium, and no zone does not mean no risk.
  6. What maintenance does the shoreline need (seawall, bulkhead, riprap, erosion), and what has been done recently?Shoreline structures are expensive to repair; ask for records and inspection reports.
  7. How are water, sewer or septic, and power provided?Waterfront septic systems and wells can have extra rules and inspections.
  8. How do you reach the property by road year-round, and who maintains that road?Some waterfront roads are private, seasonal or shared.
  9. What local rules apply: rentals, docks, boat lifts, fences, tree removal, setbacks?Rules come from the town, county, state, lake authority or association and vary widely.
