$3M waterfront home on Long Island offers East End living with a Nantucket vibe

This unique home at 127 Senix Avenue in Center Moriches offers south-of-the-highway waterfront living without the Hamptons crowds. The property, asking $2,990,000, sits on Moriches Bay, anchored by a classic circa 1890 Nantucket-style home. In addition to renovated interiors, a quaint guest house, a boathouse, and an in-ground pool, verdant grounds make this a dream vacation residence.

The two-acre property, protected by Senix Creek, features 180 feet of water frontage and a private dock. Swimming, boating, or just ocean-gazing can be an all-day, everyday activity without leaving home.

The six-bedroom, four-bath main residence has a casual Nantucket feel, while offering every modern convenience. Thorough renovations join timeless interiors with gracious architectural details like oversized rooms and high ceilings, tasteful moldings, and built-ins. Big windows mean tranquil water views in every direction.

The home’s main level is anchored by a spacious gourmet kitchen. This sunny gathering spot is chef-ready, with an oversized center island, wood cabinetry, granite counters, and top-of-the-line appliances.

Six large bedrooms mean plenty of accommodations for family and friends. Bedrooms offer water views, warm wood floors, and the comfort of central air conditioning.

A luxurious primary bedroom includes a sitting room and an en-suite bath. It’s the perfect spot to gaze out over the bay at the end of the day.

The home’s top floor offers charming rooms with vaulted ceilings. Up here you’ll find sleeping quarters, a full bath–and a bonus billiards/game room.

With a grand, sweeping driveway as an entry point, the secure property includes a separate carriage house with a bedroom and bath. This charming guest house opens onto an outdoor bar overlooking the pool.

There’s even room for a tennis court on the two-acre grounds. This picture-perfect waterfront compound is a rare quiet retreat just minutes from the Hamptons.
