About this property

RARE FIND: IMMACULATE COTTAGE at start of the North Fork Wine Country

Work, vacation or stay for an extended retreat, living in a secluded and intimate cottage on a private estate is like no other. Situated at the start of Wine Country on Long Island’s North Fork, this 2 bed/2 en-suite bath cottage is immaculately appointed and indeed a RARE FIND!!!! And still an easy commute to Manhattan if needed, for those who haven’t fully returned to the office and are continuing to mostly work from home.

Fully renovated cottage features 2 good size bedrooms (king & queen bed), each with their own private en-suite bathrooms with marble finishes. The cottage is fully furnished with designer touches throughout, original and limited edition art hang on the walls, hardwood flooring, fully equipped kitchen/dining area. Dedicated WiFi connection and Smart TV (Sling, Paramount Plus and other streaming services included).

Added bonus - newly installed universal Electric Vehicle Charger. So if you drive a Tesla or other EV, you’ll be fully charged to be out and about exploring the beautiful North Fork.

Guest Cottage overlooks the very pretty stables and is nestled within a private estate on ~3acres. The estate is surrounded by a 150+ acre preserve, so it’s not only charming but offers total tranquility and privacy... an escape from the world around.
Green grass, peace, quiet, beautiful surroundings, the cottage is walking distance to the beach, hiking trails for bird watching and many other amenities. Sit by the local duck pond after picking up your morning coffee or smoothie from Brekky cafe, order take out at Mesquite or North Tavern, pick up Clam Chowder, lobster roll or fresh fish from Blue Water Fish or dine overlooking the beach and Long Island Sound at Zagat rated La Plage; this area of Wading River is not widely known and so much to do all within walking distance.

First settled in the 1600’s, Wading River is home to many historic houses and the area around is also a foodie’s delight. The guest house is easily accessible to zagat rated restaurants like La Plage, local cafe’s for your morning coffee, fresh fruit and vegetables from the multiple local farmer’s markets, butchers, award winning wineries, bakers making fruit pies with fruit grown in local orchards, cheese and charcuterie stores, and not to mention a 10,000 square foot full service spa at the local East Winds along with public golf courses.

And if you need your fix for the Hamptons, then Southampton, Bridgehampton, Sag Harbor is a short drive away, as is the rest of the North Fork, along with the seaside village of Port Jefferson.

But honestly, once you’re here, you’ll most likely want to stay and relax as everything is within a few minutes walk or drive. And not to mention that Wholefoods delivers.

BBQ outside on the lawn with the charcoal grill, or curl up with a good book on the deck chairs and blanket under the mature trees.

Ideally suited for couples who want a longer stay and wish to combine working remotely with a vacation feel. Minimum stay 28 days only.

Note: Gas, Electricity and WiFi are an additional charge

A Peaceful Oasis!
I had a wonderful stay at Julie-Ann's cottage situated on her beautiful property surrounded by nature and quiet. I am from CA and needed a long-term rental to call "home" while visiting some family in NY and her home couldn't have offered a more perfect match. I stayed at the cottage for about 1.5 months, spending my days mostly working remotely and relaxing in the sun. The place was clean, well-stocked with all of the needed essentials, and came with a very informative notebook to guide me around the neighborhood. Julie-Ann walked me through the space, just so I knew where to find everything yet from that point, she was never intrusive on my space of the preserve and I barely ran into her (the main house is a short walk away). In fact, I went out of my way to chat with her periodically because she is so lovely and welcoming! Wading River is a lovely pocket of Long Island and the cottage is just a 15 min walk to the beach at the end of the road. From a logistical perspective, there was ample parking for my rented car, an extra full-size fridge in garage for food storage, all tools needed for cooking, a washer/dryer that I used quite a bit, and fast internet with streaming services. I enjoyed my stay so much that I hope to return next time I'm in town visiting my family. My only complaint is that I couldn't stay longer!

Perfect in every aspect, hard to find oasis
I cannot say enough praises for this place. It an oasis in nature, but of a classy and tastefully furnished kind, run impeccably by competent, thoughtful and kind owner. There is nothing that is not perfect about this (guest) house, Including it’s location, equipment and care that goes into every detail and is visible inside and outside the property. We felt truly at home at Julie-Ann’s guest house, and highly recommend it.

All we hoped for and more
We were truly impressed with this rental in every respect. Starting from responsive, responsible and simply lovely owner, to sparkling clean apartment which is essentially a house just for your very own self and your family, to everything you need for working remotely as well as enjoying a deserved break. This property is set in middle of an immaculate estate, surrounded by trees and grass, always well maintained. We highly recommend.
