10 Tradewinds Dr, Bayville, NY 11709

From its picturesque half-acre setting to its adroitly appointed, spacious, sun-drenched interior, this exquisite 3, 077-square-foot home radiates the love of nature's beauty and individual inspiration. Located in Cat Hollow on a secluded parcel in an area of generously sized properties, this enchanting artist's home has a touch of contemporary style yet enough traditional features to appeal to any style you might call your own. Just a half mile from public beachfront and marina on Mill Neck Creek, you will love feeling a part of the intimate, "small-town", North Shore village of Bayville and feel like you are on vacation year-round being part of what is known as the Locust Valley area, the new closer-in alternative to the Hamptons. When your guests arrive, they will be mesmerized by the exquisitely maintained beds, hedgerows and lawn accented by towering trees and flowering shrubs framing your stunning home with highly pitched, skylit roof. A wide drive leads wends to the attached two car garage. Here, steps ascend to a spacious, partly covered rear deck overlooking a breathtaking rear property with emerald lawns meandering through neatly trimmed flowerbeds edging walls of lush woodland, and room for a pool. A charming, covered front porch welcomes you into a foyer with coat closet and striking staircase. It is open to a bright and airy living room with soaring skylit ceiling and a wall of nearly floor-length casement windows overlooking the front garden.
