About this property

'The Gate House'on Beach front Estate with Dockage. Walk to Village .

Located on a family-owned waterfront estate, The Gate House, a cozy 2-story, 2-bedroom cottage, is only steps away from the tranquil waters of the Peconic bay. 'one of the last saltwater farms,' the estate is not only picturesque, but is also an exemplary model of a traditional working farm.

Lots of natural light makes the house wonderfully cheerful, and gentle breezes from the water keep the house naturally cool. The intimate slate patio and sprawling lawn make for a great place to entertain friends and family. Stroll along the estate's expansive private beach or have a picnic overlooking the water. The beautiful tree-filled grounds complete the pristine view of the bay and Shelter Island, making the estate an artist’s paradise for all seasons. With room to roam and nature to explore, the property is both kid- and pet-friendly. The Gate House is peaceful and secluded, yet within easy walking distance to downtown Greenport Village, offering the best of both worlds.

With a strong nautical history, Greenport is a water-lover’s paradise and the perfect destination for sailing, boating, fishing, swimming, kayaking, birdwatching

While downtown in the village of Greenport, explore the local boutiques and stores. Take advantage of the history-rich Railroad, Stirling-Ireland House, and East End Seaport museums. Ride the antique carousel, or take a tour of the harbor on The Glory, an electric launch. Sample the local bounty from land and sea in a variety of restaurants offering casual fare to award-winning dining. Tour the over 42 vineyards located here on the North Fork. Discover the art galleries featuring local and international artists who represent the contemporary to the classic. So much tucked into one square mile, and all conveniently within walking distance!

Greenport, a short distance from Manhattan, Connecticut, and the Hamptons means you don’t have to go far to get away. Enjoy a casual drive from the city, or let the LIRR or Hampton Jitney carry you here stress free. Either way there is something for everyone, so come and experience what makes Greenport charming and unique. For additional information about Greenport and all it has to offer, please visit the official village website supported by the Greenport BID. Make sure to enter Greenport Village in your search.

Cherry Lane Farm also offers additional accommodations that when combined can be perfect for family gatherings. Please visit listing #167288--“Cottage on Waterfront Estate” or main house listing 234929

We had a great time at the beach! The communication was easy, the house was as advertised with wonderful views and lots of privacy and quiet, and we were easy walking distance into the village of Greenport.

The property is beautiful and so peaceful! Pat was a pleasure to work with . You can tell he loves his property and its rich history. The Gate House while humble was spotless and had everything we needed. The outdoor sitting area with the grill also had everything we needed and a spectacular view! Where else are you going to get a private beach , right down the street from downtown Greenport! We are looking forward to going back.

Pat was the perfect host and our time on Long Island wouldn't have been complete with our stay at Cherry Lane Farms! From phenomenal local recommendations to the most amazing private beach, I can't recommend this spot more! It was perfect for our family and young child to rest, explore, and have the perfect getaway!

This is a lovely, small property, comfy beds, full kitchen, dining room, living room, outdoor patio with a grill and a stones throw from the beach and the bay. Convenient to town and good restaurants. Clean, well tended, and the host couldn’t have been more welcoming and easy to reach. My wife and I were looking for a solitary getaway for a weekend and got just what we had hoped for.

The house is spacious, nicely furnished and charming with views as well as access to the water with a nice outdoor table, chairs and an umbrella for sitting outside. Our host Patrick was extremely responsive and a delight to meet.Although it did not present an issue for us; there is only one bathroom on the main floor with the bedrooms upstairs. Not surprising for an older home but helpful to know.One of the most appealing features is the quiet; the house is located on a farm at the end of a road and you neither hear nor see neighbors. It was an ideal location from which to explore the lovely town of Greenport.

My husband and I stayed in Pat's beach house for a long weekend of wine tasting and exploring. This property is water front with well maintained, clean historic buildings. We love Greenport and visit every year, so we were excited to find a place in walking distance to town but off the beaten path and on the water! The owner Pat is a wonderful host. He is quite the historian and is happy to share stories of his wonderful property and the town. The little house we rented sleeps 4, there's is another house that also sleeps 4, and the main house sleeps 10, should you have a large group. Plenty of parking. Highly recommend!
