A 2008 re-design by a prominent local architect and dramatic, quality expansion yielded a picturesque craftsman-inspired residence, clad in cedar. Gorgeous Andersen windows and heavy trimwork enhance the front facade. A tin roof front porch provides a spot for rocking back and forth, and enjoying the briny sea breeze coming off of Port Jefferson Harbor - just a stone's throw away. Truly an "open concept" home, from all points, you enter into a double height living area with an overlook-style loft breezeway above. The living area then opens directly into the rear kitchen and dining area. Maple cabinetry, stainless appliances, and the unique touch of copper countertops - plus rear French sliders out to a raised deck - are all features of the kitchen. The dining area is flanked by an additional wall of windows. Just recently revised, the fireplace has been wrapped in limestone and tapped into natural gas, and is crowned by a centuries old barnwood mantle. It stands as a focal point for the main level. Brazilian cherry floors are consistent throughout both levels. A tiled mud area with additional yard access and powder room leads into an oversized front garage. One can head up or down a level via a dynamic staircase with more craftsman detail. Vaulted 13x16' sleeping quarters, multiple closets - inclusive of a 13'x4.5' walk-in, and a fully appointed ensuite with a soaking tub & walk-in shower with dual shower heads comprise the primary suite. Enjoy views from the northwest corner of the room, wrapped in windows. Two additional rooms overlooking the backyard and an updated full bathroom round out the second level. The lower level provides walkout access to a sunken rear patio and multiple egress-style windows, plus a generous living area accented by shiplap, hi-hat lighting, and recently added wood-look tile. A glass paneled door leads to an ideal spot for a bedroom - with a cedar walk-in - set apart from the upper level rooms, a home office, or bonus space. A full bathroom, laundry room, and utility access are all present in the basement. Additional noteworthy points include a new central air conditioning system, a new hot water heater, and a high capacity cesspool system. A secondary patio area plus lawn space sets the scene for summer fun. Patio space totals to over 1,000 sq ft. The Incorporated Village of Poquott is a gem of a community, affording residents exclusive access to three private beaches on Port Jefferson & Setauket Harbors, a village dock, boat ramp, acres of parkland, a tennis court, kayak racks, multiple playgrounds, and private security/code enforcement. An active association sponsors a fantastic social calendar of events and activities throughout the year. California Park, with many of the aforementioned amenities, is just down the block - in eyesight of 40 Chestnut. Port Jefferson Village, just 4 minutes to the east by car, is a maritime locale offering restaurants, boutiques, multiple marinas, tons of events and activities, a ferry line that makes travel to New England a breeze, and more. Stony Brook University and Hospital, world renowned institutions, lie just 8 minutes to the west - and the idyllic, quaint waterfront business district of Stony Brook Village is just beyond. Poquott is zoned for attendance at Setauket Elementary, Gelinas Junior High, and Ward Melville High School, with the renowned Three Village School District. Residents are also afforded access to all Town of Brookhaven amenities.
