Discover the ultimate waterfront lifestyle in this expansive 2,300+ sq. ft. home, perfectly positioned on a half-acre overlooking Mudd Creek. Featuring direct bulkhead and docking access, you are just a short boat ride away from the open waters of Moriches Bay and the Moriches Inlet. This residence is designed with both character and flexibility in mind, highlighted by hardwood floors, terra cotta tiling, and an abundance of natural light throughout. On the main level, a cozy den anchored by a wood-burning fireplace leads to a spacious living and dining combo. Dramatic vaulted ceilings and large windows frame the water views, with sliding glass doors opening directly to the rear deck. On the upper level, a second-floor great room features soaring ceilings and balcony access. The primary suite offers a "Jack & Jill" entrance to the expansive main bath and its own private entrance to the water-view balcony. Currently configured with 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths, the layout includes a dedicated home office/bonus room that can easily serve as a 4th bedroom. Includes a partially finished basement and an attached 1-car garage, offering significant storage or the potential for additional finished space. The grounds feature an in-ground pool and ample room for entertaining against a scenic creek-side backdrop. While the home, pool, and dock require some TLC and repairs, the potential is unmatched. Recent tax grievances are estimated to save approximately $4,800 per year, making this an even smarter investment. Bring your vision, add your finishing touches, and transform this house into the waterfront retreat you've always imagined. (Some exterior photos have been digitally enhanced using AI to remove snow)
