Ask a questionAbout Deborah Belford de Furia
I have been coming out to Fire Island since I was a child in the early '70's. Now my children enjoy Fire Island summers. Even though we live in Italy, we make the trip back to the beach every summer. There is nowhere like it in the world. It is our paradise.
Deborah Belford de Furia purchased this Cottage in 1972
Why Deborah Belford de Furia chose Seaview
This house was passed down to us by my mother. It is our home and we cherish it. It is a true beach house, a cozy cottage with lots of character just steps away from the ocean. We wouldn't want any other house.
What makes this Cottage unique
The beach is literally 100 steps from our front door. No cars. A place where everyone can roam free safely. It is in Seaview, where there are lifeguards, less-crowded beaches, access to the Seaview bay beach with playground and pool (and swimming lessons), baseball field, and a quieter atmosphere than many other communities on the island. Enjoy the beach morning and night with others who share the same love of peace and quiet and nature.
