About this home
Set on 1.5 acres of level, flat property in St. James, this home offers a private and peaceful retreat while remaining conveniently close to everyday amenities. The expansive parcel presents potential for subdivision (buyer to verify), including the possibility of a flag lot or alternate access from Lt. John A. Olsen Lane with approved easement.
Lovingly maintained by the same owners for over 25 years, the home features numerous updates including double cesspools (approx. 2 years), burner (approx. 3 years), kitchen appliances (approx. 2 years), and new commercial-grade flooring throughout—extra thick and scratch-resistant. Two beautifully updated baths (under 3 years), including an upstairs bath with radiant heated floors, add to the home’s appeal. Additional improvements include an updated eat-in kitchen and a 40-year roof with approximately 20 years remaining.
The home includes a legal garage conversion with a private entrance, ideal for extended family, with potential for a legal accessory apartment with proper permits. An oversized driveway provides ample parking and easily accommodates an RV, boat, or trailer.
A large unfinished basement with both interior and exterior entrances offers endless possibilities and features a wood-burning stove, allowing heat to naturally rise throughout the home.
Enjoy the convenience of a recreational park just across the street, complete with tennis, volleyball and basketball courts, soccer field, playground, and water park—offering activities for every age.
Located in the desirable Smithtown School District and just minutes from fine dining, shopping, and local conveniences,
