Situated on serene Academy Lane in the heart of Bellport Village's Historic District, The Bellport House is an eclectic 1850s cedar-shingle Bellport original that seamlessly blends rustic charm and modern simplicity. Reimagined by its current owner-a celebrated AD100 architect and interior designer-this home reflects a deep appreciation for history and craftsmanship. Its distinctive character has been recognized in publications such as The New York Times and Remodelista. While honoring its 19th-century origins, this home has been completely updated to meet modern standards. Recent upgrades include new plumbing, wiring, and cedar roof, ensuring the property is both beautiful and functional for today's living. Original wood paneling and unexpected design touches throughout create a warm yet distinctive atmosphere that feels truly unique. The spacious and bright living room serves as the heart of the home, featuring exposed beams, a wood-burning Rumford fireplace, and French doors that open to a screened porch. This seamless connection to the pool and yard beyond creates an effortless flow for entertaining or enjoying the peaceful setting. A functional and stylish kitchen, equipped with high-end appliances, balances simplicity with flair. Adjacent to the kitchen, the spacious dining area provides a serene space for gatherings. Off the dining area, the sun porch offers tranquil views of the 60-foot heated gunite saltwater lap pool, making it an ideal spot to relax and enjoy the surrounding natural beauty. Upstairs, the primary bedroom suite is a serene retreat featuring a wood-burning fireplace, a private screened-in porch overlooking the backyard, and an ensuite bathroom with an original 100-year-old soaking tub, a beautiful nod to the home's storied past. Two additional guest bedrooms complete this level, offering comfortable and stylish accommodations. A standout feature of the property is the screened porch, set apart from the house. With its serene views and airy ambiance, this space offers endless possibilities, including outdoor dining, entertaining, or creating your own private retreat. Adding to the home's charm is a historic barn, a beautifully preserved structure that speaks to the property's 19th-century origins. This home is located a very short distance from downtown Bellport Village, where you can explore charming shops, art galleries, and the vibrant cultural scene, including the local theater. The nearby residents-only ferry to Ho-Hum Beach ensures easy access to sandy shores and leisurely days by the water.
