About this property
A Gold Coast Legacy Estate: Along the storied bluffs of Lloyd Harbor's Gold Coast, where private drives wind through centuries-old trees and the water stretches endlessly toward the horizon, Fort Hill rises as one of the North Shore's most iconic waterfront estates. Welcome to 31 Fort Hill Drive, 28,000 square feet of architectural gravitas set across 10 secluded acres, with 870 feet of private beachfront and a deep-water dock. From its elevated perch, panoramic views of the Long Island Sound unfold in every direction: sunrise mists, sailboats at golden hour, winter tides crashing below. The perspective is cinematic. The privacy absolute. Originally built in 1910 and masterfully restored to its original glory, this Victorian Revival masterpiece is both historic landmark and modern sanctuary. Thirteen bedrooms, ten full baths, and four half baths are artfully distributed throughout grandly scaled living spaces designed for legacy living and world-class entertaining. A luminous solarium captures the changing light of the Sound. A stately wood-paneled library offers quiet retreat. An exquisitely detailed ballroom: rare in scale and craftsmanship, stands ready for unforgettable evenings. Seven fireplaces, intricate millwork, and curated architectural detail evoke an era when homes were built not merely to inhabit, but to endure. The fully renovated gourmet kitchen anchors the residence with contemporary precision: integrating seamlessly into formal dining rooms and intimate gathering spaces. Staff quarters, a 16-car garage with guest apartment suites above, and flexible rooms for theater, wellness, or gallery use ensure the estate functions as effortlessly as it impresses. Outdoors, three acres of curated formal gardens and a greenhouse create a private botanical world: lush lawns, sweeping terraces, and moments of serene seclusion. A squash court, expansive grounds, and private shoreline complete a compound that is as rare as it is commanding. Set within moments to Huntington Village and the train to Manhattan, Fort Hill is not simply a home. It is a generational estate - where American history, architectural pedigree, and natural beauty converge. By appointment only.

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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- How are water, sewer or septic, and power provided?Waterfront septic systems and wells can have extra rules and inspections.
- How do you reach the property by road year-round, and who maintains that road?Some waterfront roads are private, seasonal or shared.
- 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.
