Welcome to this spacious and distinctive 3/4-bedroom, 2-bath ranch located in the desirable Baywood section of Bay Shore. This is not your typical cookie-cutter home—offering approximately 1,744 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space with a flexible and inviting layout. The home features a sun-filled living room and a formal dining room perfect for entertaining, and an eat-in kitchen ready for everyday living. Some rooms have hardwood flooring. Sliding glass doors from the dining room open to a private patio with a charming wood portico—ideal for indoor/outdoor enjoyment. The generously sized primary bedroom offers a walk-in closet, and both full bathrooms are well-appointed, including one that has been recently renovated. A versatile family room with its own separate entrance provides the option for a 4th bedroom, guest suite, or home office—tailored to fit your lifestyle. Additional highlights include an updated oil heating system (approximately 7 years old) with efficient 2-zone heating, two 100-amp electric panels, and leased solar panels to help offset energy costs. Pull down staircase to the attic, great for additional storage. Set on approximately 1/3 acre, this property is located on a beautiful tree-lined block, offering both space and privacy. Please note there is no basement; however, a crawl space provides additional utility. Taxes are listed without the STAR exemption.
