Property Description

Beautifully renovated and completely move-in ready, this exceptional property checks every box—featuring a legal second-floor accessory apartment, a finished basement with private entrance, plenty of off street parking, and an oversized 100' x 140' lot (approximately one-third of an acre) in Half Hollow Hills East School District. Perfectly positioned to benefit from Melville's exciting Main Street revitalization, this home offers more than exceptional living—it places you in one of Long Island's most promising growth corridors. The planned transformation into a vibrant downtown with restaurants, boutique shopping, residential living, and community gathering spaces is expected to strengthen demand and support long-term property appreciation. Designed for today's lifestyle, the flexible floor plan features five spacious bedrooms, two beautifully updated full baths, new flooring, modern fixtures, efficient three-zone heating, and a fully finished basement with an outside entrance. This home adapts effortlessly to your needs. The legal second-floor accessory apartment provides immediate income potential or private living quarters, adding exceptional financial flexibility and long-term value. Outside, you'll find a deep 1.5-car garage with loft storage, an oversized driveway, and a fully fenced backyard with a 12-foot access gate—ideal for contractors, business owners, boats, RVs, trailers, or recreational equipment. Professionally landscaped grounds, an in-ground sprinkler system, a newer architectural roof, and remarkably low taxes further elevate this property's outstanding value. The expansive, level backyard offers endless possibilities to create your dream outdoor retreat or future expansion. Originally one of the area's early farmhouses, the home has been thoughtfully restored, preserving its unique character while offering all the modern comforts today's buyers expect. This home truly is The Complete Package.
