Upstairs, the accessory apartment offers even more living space with its own kitchen, two bedrooms, full bathroom, and an impressive oversized living room highlighted by cathedral ceilings. This separate living arrangement provides tremendous flexibility for extended household living or rental income.

Location is another major highlight. Baldwin and Baldwin Harbor provide a true South Shore lifestyle, with direct connections to the area's bays and waterways and numerous parks and recreational opportunities. Nearby favorites include Baldwin Park, offering extensive outdoor recreation, and Silver Lake Park for peaceful outdoor enjoyment. Everyday shopping and conveniences are also close by at Baldwin Harbor Shopping Center, along with restaurants, supermarkets, local shops and services throughout Grand Avenue and Atlantic Avenue.
Commuters will appreciate convenient access to the Baldwin LIRR station, located at Sunrise Highway and Grand Avenue. Baldwin is approximately 21 miles east of Manhattan, and the LIRR's Babylon Branch provides direct rail service toward Manhattan, making New York City easily accessible while still enjoying the space and waterfront character of Long Island's South Shore.
