A house in the middle of Greenport.
Three bedrooms and a bath and a half across 1,800 square feet, on a tree-shaded block in the heart of Greenport Village. Built in 1934, the house keeps the proportions and the bones of its era — coffered ceilings, light wood floors, big windows that look into the gardens, and a wraparound front porch with a full-size fireplace.
From the front door, it's three minutes to Front Street, four to the harbor, and a quarter-mile to the beach. Restaurants, the village green, the marina, and the Shelter Island ferry are all within reach without a car. It's the rare Greenport address you actually use — for the morning paper, the Saturday market, dinner out — instead of one you only drive to.
The block in spring is its own argument for the home: cherry trees fully in bloom, the village quiet enough to hear them. Across two stories there's space for a family or two couples; behind the house, a flat rear lot with room for a small in-ground pool. Offered at $1,350,000 by Douglas Elliman.
