About this home

This 1840s home on two acres with a two-story barn enjoys a magical view of Conscience Bay, preserved by protected marshlands. The old house, with eyebrow windows and two fireplaces, preserved the peace and quiet of the woods when it was completely renovated and enlarged in 2023. Renovations include Marvin windows, a new roof and cedar shingles, a new state-of-the-art septic system, and a new kitchen and bath. A new heat pump HVAC and hot water system was installed in January 2026. The electric bill averages $210/ month. The home has 200-amp electrical service with buried utility lines. The house currently has three bedrooms but could easily be converted to the original four, at the sellers' expense. A raised kitchen garden next to the screened porch complements perennial flower gardens. The garden irrigation system extends to new trees, rhododendrons, and hydrangeas. The owners can list which plants bloom from early spring. The barn is believed to have been built in the 1850s. The owners at that time, James and Anna Howell, are buried in the Presbyterian Cemetery across from the Emma Clark Library. Residents of Old Field enjoy access to the private "Residents Only" Whitehall Beach just south of the Old Field Lighthouse. West Meadow Beach (2 miles), Stony Brook University (6 miles), and the Long Island Railroad (2 miles)are within biking distance. Port Jefferson, with its many restaurants, harbor, and special events, and the Bridgeport Ferry to Connecticut, is just 4 miles away. Located in the highly regarded Three Village School District, this special offering in Old Field combines timeless character with modern updates in a truly serene setting.
