The Sea Captain's Home is a sprawling, well-preserved, 4-bedroom-plus Italianate Victorian, featuring large rooms, tall ceilings and striking detail, on a natural 3/4 acre property. Built in 1860, the house is a lovely combination of the gorgeous architectural detail of the time, and the modern amenities of today.
Situated between Greenport and Orient, in the quiet hamlet of East Marion, this peaceful spot is surrounded by farmland, with open fields behind, and wild coastline minutes away. Greenport is a five-minute drive, and any number of local beaches, from the quiet sandy bay beach a half mile away, to the the more dramatic sound beach at the end of Rocky Point Road, can easily be reached by bike. Sep's farm stand, Angel's country store, the now-legendary lavender fields and the Hampton Jitney stop are all a short walk away.
When you're back from the beach, vineyards, shopping, or from a great meal at one of the many restaurants of the North Fork, you can hang out, relax and watch a movie on the smart TV, play music on the Sonos. Cook on the 6-burner Wolf restaurant stove and enjoy meals in the huge dining room. Or have a long soak in one of the deep clawfoot tubs When the day's over, the beds are all super comfortable with new linens, and the whole house is air conditioned.
You can also grill in the large backyard filled with shade trees, next to acres of open land for peace, privacy, and a great view.... especially at sunset. It stays cool in summer back there, perfect for reading in one of the six lounge chairs, or taking a snooze in the hammock. The cedar table on the brick patio seats 10 comfortably. And don't miss the outdoor in a hidden away in a little private garden.
We offer all of the comforts of a modern home, but with a little something rustic left from days gone by.

About the host
Hosted by Maria & Joe
New York natives who love Long Island and love the North Fork. We are both creative types, and so we appreciate the craftsmanship that went into the creation of this unique home. We love it with all our hearts.
Why they chose this property
Truly built by a wealthy sea captain in 1860, it was owned by the same fishing family until the late 1970's. We are only the fourth owners of this classic home, which has since been updated with modern amenities - yet with the rustic charm of the 1800s left intact. The North Fork is like no other place in the world, and we have been to many! The fishing and farming cultures have engendered a work ethic and an appreciation of nature in the people of the area that we really love.
