Waterfront & private beach Scandinavian style house near Bellport, NY


Scandinavian-style house, private beach near Bellport, NY

A few steps outside the front door is our private sandy beach on Long Island’s Great South Bay – perfect for swimming, kayaking, and fishing in warm clean waters.

A huge nature preserve surrounds this property to the east. From the elevated wraparound deck, you will see breathtaking views of waving reeds, birdlife, pristine shoreline and a vast sky. That deck also provides front-row seats to the summer sailing regattas from Bellport’s yacht club.

This unique vacation home has overlooked its bay for 100 years and has been lovingly renovated with a Scandinavian flair.

The result is comfortable, casual, efficient and fully modern – while maintaining its authentic seaside feel.

New York City is only 60 miles away – but you’ll feel like you’re in a different universe. This is the last house on a short shoreline road that connects to a quiet family neighborhood.

You will have privacy, quiet, and direct access to water and nature. No traffic. No nearby noise. Just the gentle lapping of waves.

You will also be a short drive (or bike ride) from the charming town of Bellport –restaurants, library, groceries and the shopping fun of quirky boutiques.

Interior arrangements:

• The upper level bedroom has a king-sized bed, its own bathroom, and unique views. Lounge area with comfortable chairs and TV.
• The second bedroom, with queen-sized bed, is on the ground floor.
• The twin trundle daybed sits in the ground-floor alcove, shielded by a privacy partition.
• The second bathroom is on the lower level.
• The entryway has a full-size daybed -- perfect for relaxing as the sea breeze drifts in through screens. Lower level living room with TV.
• A large patio / deck sits just outside the kitchen on the ground floor – perfect for charcoal grilling and outdoor dining.

This unique getaway is available for longer stays and all year around, including holidays. Early bookings prevent disappointment. Contact me for additional information.

Thank you for your interest.

Bay Vacation
We loved the location and the decks. We enjoyed the sunrise, sunset and moon rise on the same day and multiple days. Kayaking was easy and enjoyable from the bay. Upper floor was great as was the well-stocked kitchen. We enjoyed the charcoal grill and the back deck for dinners. First floor was a little musty but ok. Weather was perfect so we had windows open during the entire stay. Larger bed and door would have been good for the third bedroom but it worked for us.

Perfect spot for a very relaxing weekend
The owner was gracious and the home was well laid out and organized with everything you'd want for a relaxing weekend of sun and sea breeze. It was extremely private and we thoroughly enjoyed the water access as well as the sea breeze and sun on the wrap around deck. Great place!! Loved it.

Family long weekend meet up
This was a nice property for our family gathering, all of us coming in from different parts of the north east. We enjoyed meals on the back deck and enjoyed sunsets from the top deck. Kitchen had all the amenities we needed and the grill on the deck worked great. Anita met me at check in and walked through the property. The private beach across the street was nice. The bugs were annoying so bring your bug spray (also supplied by Anita). Loved the privacy at the end of the street. Listing and pictures are accurate and we enjoyed our time!!

What a great vacation rental
This was a great place for our visit. We were there, not to vacation, but visit a sick family member, so unfortunately, we didn't get to take much advantage of the bbq, kayaks, etc. We did get to take a quick swim in the bay and it was lovely and had a couple walks along the beach. It is definitely an older home, in a very humid area, so some of the doors are hard to open or close, but that is to be expected. Anita was there to meet us and explain where things were and was so open to taking any questions during our stay. Plenty of dishes, cooking utensils, etc.; the fridge was spotlessly clean; dishwasher is old, but works. A/C in each room, not only kept the place cool, but let everyone keep their room to their liking. Pillows were the best I've ever slept on and the beds were very comfortable. We loved the upstairs porch and never saw so many dragonflies in my life. Also had deer in the yard one morning. Just a sweet, comfortable, traditional beach house. I'd stay again and longer if I could.

Great location right on the water with amazing views. Quiet but easily accessible to surrounding fun. House was great. Slight sulfur taste to water but I brushed my teeth with it no problem. Also showering was fine. I didn’t detect any smell of the house. It was fun.

Unforgettable Weekend
We had a wonderful time at this magical place. The seaside air is amazing and the views of sea, sky, and wetlands are extraordinary. The house is cozy and well-stocked with comfortable bedding, ample kitchen utensils, and various toys for floating or paddling in the Great South Bay. We especially loved the upstairs living/sleeping area. It is full sunlight and fresh air, affords panoramic views, and provides a deeply relaxing atmosphere for a good night’s sleep. We watched the sun rise and set from the wraparound deck on this level, while listening to the gentle waves of the bay lapping at the beach. If you can pull yourself away from all this, the village of Bellport is charming, and there is a terrific fish market in Mastic. Anita is a wonderful and responsive host and this private oasis is a great place to unwind and recharge. It really embodies the Scandinavian concept of “hygge”. We didn’t want to leave and can’t wait to return!

A lot to love + a few things to know
This is a tough review to write. I wish I could give it 5 stars with so much to love: the fabulous location and house design -- a wrap-around deck on the waterfront where you can watch the sun and moon rise and set...a peaceful sanctuary is just what we were looking for. The house is clean, full of cool art and relics, and stocked with pretty much everything you need, except ice and water. We noticed that others here recommended bringing in your own water, and glad we did, as the well has a bad smell. But it wasn't really a problem. Anita, the host, is very responsive and cordial. The local neighbors were friendly and helpful. We even heard the local wild peacock the first night we arrived! The big issue with this home is the air quality. It is an old house by the sea, so I guess it's not a surprise that it has a musty smell. I thought we could get used to it, but several members of our family have asthma, so it became a real problem by Day 2. My husband didn't mind it, so, if you aren't sensitive to mold or have lung issues, then it probably won't bother you. We had to spend a lot of time on the deck, but that wasn't a problem since they have a bunch of really comfy chairs to lounge on. (We did notice the upper deck wobbles when you walk on it and that made me a bit nervous) The house is definitely in need of some TLC in terms of maintenance, but it is one of the coolest homes I have spent time in. Would be great for a group of friends or couples. I imagine the owners had a lot of fun in this home over the years -- I heard stories of a beach club and neighborhood clam bakes that harkens back to its glory days. The marshes and bay waters are beautiful and endless, though there's not much of a beach -- it feels more like a lake. The yard is nice and the kids played in the grass. We went to Fire Island to the beach to swim about 20 mins away. It was nice there and they have a bar/restaurant on the beach. All in all: a home with great bones, a great location but not great air quality, even with all the windows open on a cool, beautiful day. If you don't mind that, then you will love this unique home and nature sanctuary.

Disappointed & Bummed out
The views are wonderful! Home is stocked with all you could need to enjoy your stay. But the home is full of mold and the odor is unpleasant. And I am being nice. The water must be well water and needs attention because it smells like rotten eggs. And the showers have no water pressure at all. The home is damp and the A/C units in the windows make the home damper. The driveway and parking was an issue. I never leave bad reviews but for the amount of money I payed this home is not worth it. It was not comfortable and I am totally bummed out. And I am sorry to feel this way.

Magic
Our little getaway was magical courtesy of owner Anita who checked us in with her sweetheart pooch. My husband and our 13 yr old lab, Eva, enjoyed breathtaking sunrise to sunset views of the bay and fire island. Wonderful seafood from nearby Mastic. There was no reason to leave the house. We had friends in one night and rushed back from others in East Hampton to relax and enjoy our piece of heaven as the sun went down. We can’t wait to go back!

This was the cutest little home in Brookhaven; the views were beyond comprehension. It was a short distance to downtown area and grocery.

M family and I visited the Bellport area over Labor Day. The weather was great which meant we spent a lot of time on the deck. The views were awesome. The place was perfect for us as we grilled and relaxed . We had all the amenities we needed and the house was comfortable. Only issue is getting used to the shower water smell. It was a small issue. Anita was friendly and funny. Super host. Highly recommend.

A Magical Spot
This was our group's second stay at this special property - and we cannot wait to return again. Anita's home is truly a magical spot. The views, the home, the water - it is the exact place you want to go to escape for a few days, or over a week as we did. The home has so much character and is very comfortable for a group to stay in and also work from as needed. We enjoyed grilling, the decks, morning walks along the water, peace and quiet, and making meals in the kitchen. Anita is lovely host and reachable as needed. We will be back!

Gorgeous rustic oasis
It’s a beautiful beachfront property less than 1.5 hr drive from NYC. The views are unbelievable - we saw the sunrise in the morning over the wetlands and set in the evening over the Atlantic Ocean, Perseid Meteors at night, family of deers and bunnies and the ocean waves all day. Anita is extremely helpful and easy to communicate with and was always available throughout our stay. The location was convenient with a cute beach across the road and Downtown Bellport only 8 mins drive away. The only reason I take off one star is cause we did find a couple of things in the house inconvenient - the upper section has only one cooling unit and it wasn’t able to cool down effectively especially during the summer afternoons. Also we got a lot of bugs and mosquitoes during our stay probably cause of the rains

Stunning Views
The house was comfortable for 6 adults, with a nice deck for our family dinners and a gorgeous upstairs wrap around deck with sensational views of the sound and colorful sunsets. There were grassy areas on both sides of the house that were perfect for our two small dogs to play. Right across the street was a narrow, sandy beach which made for a pleasant walk , swim, or just to sit in a beach chair and enjoy the lapping waves. It was a quick trip to drive to the charming little town of Bellport. The owner was easy to get in touch with and the house was so well equipped that we never needed to call or text her with questions. I hope we can manage to go back again.

Beautiful spot
My family, including 3 dogs, thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this beautiful house. The property is surrounded by a stunning nature preserve which can be enjoyed from the wrap around upper floor balcony. The house was clean and well equipped and the upstairs was bright and offered great views. The one negative is definitely the water ( as others have mentioned) so plan on buying plenty of drinking water. This is a great spot for dogs - ours loved playing in the yard and running on the beach! Anita was quick to respond and very accommodating.
