Once the original estate to August Heckscher, this 80 acre private beach community located on a fabulous peninsula in Huntington Bay is truly paradise found. This 5 bedroom Colonial was originally built in the 1930's, updated and expanded through the decades, you will be impressed by its size and flow when you walk through the doors. A wall of French doors along the back of the house lead you to a fabulous and large covered porch with enchanting views of the rear yard, peaceful harbor and westen sunsets. A fantastic place to enjoy a morning yoga session, afternoon ice tea, or a game of backgammon. The open floor plan is spacious yet charming.
