Welcome to Twin Peaks! What an incredible home. Built into a wooded hillside overlooking Mill Neck Bay and the village of Bayville, it features three amazing levels with spectacular views of sparkling waters and boats through the swaying trees. Every level has wonderful access to the outside from either spacious decks or a huge bi-level patio leading to a grassy lawn and playground. Its sunny and spacious floor plan includes four bedrooms, four baths, fabulous entertainment spaces on two levels, a gorgeous gourmet kitchen, a three-story staircase, a palatial primary suite, and more. Living in the northern section of Mill Neck, a peninsula forming the western shore of Oyster Bay, you will enjoy easy access to Oyster Bay Village with its Theodore Roosevelt Park and Beach, shopping district with delightful boutiques and restaurants, and train station with an hour commute to Manhattan. Mill Neck, home to many grand estates, offers you a scenic location close to golf courses, marinas, equestrian and hiking trails, and all the fun venues for which the Locust Valley area is now known as the “new Hamptons.” 

Guests arriving at your home may first think, “What a charming cottage.” But, like the tip of an iceberg, so much more lies beneath the top… nearly five-thousand-square-feet of exquisitely appointed living space, not counting the multiple levels of porches and patios. The first level is entered from the driveway into a sunny, skylit foyer with European Oak Cognac wood floors that extend throughout much of the home. Overlooking the lush front garden, a spacious guest suite, presently serving as a study, includes a private marble bath. To the rear of foyer, an open grouping of delightful and inviting spaces, separated only by differing ceiling heights, feature, at the far end, the living room with its dramatic sixteen-foot-high, architectural ceiling, an impressive gas or wood burning fireplace with soaring stacked stone chimney, and many windows including a towering triangular fanlight in the dramatic gable. With a lower, level ceiling, the adjoining, spacious dining area is ideal for entertaining and opens through double sliding atrium doors to an expansive mahogany deck, perfect for al fresco dining, sunning, or enjoying water views. Open to the dining room, the generous kitchen is a gourmet’s delight. You will love its old English ambiance illuminated by similar windows and ceiling to those in the living room. Richly stained custom wood cabinetry with granite countertop and hand-made tile backsplash wrap around a large center island with seating, sink and dishwasher. Features include a second, two-drawer, dishwasher next to a second sink overlooking the water, a wine cooler, Electrolux refrigerator (with in-door filtered water and ice), built-in oven and microwave/convection oven, and Viking six-burner cooktop with pot filler. A hall to the garage and service entrance opens to a custom-fitted mudroom with energy & water efficient Bosch® washer and dryer and pull downstairs to storage attic.
