Welcome to Captain Dykes Home, a rare piece of Three Village history set on .52 acres. With King’s Board wide-plank floors underfoot and five fireplaces (currently non-working, needs liner) that once warmed its rooms, this residence carries the charm and craftsmanship of another era. The home’s flexible layout offers 3–4 bedrooms, including a first-floor option, along with three full bathrooms. The primary suite includes its own private bath, while a formal dining room and first-floor laundry add both character and convenience. Over the years, thoughtful updates have been made to preserve comfort without compromising authenticity. The gas furnace has been updated and central air with humidifier were added in 2023, a new gas water heater in 2025, cesspool in 2021, and Andersen windows throughout. Outdoors, modern living meets timeless style with a newly built rear covered porch and an impressive 18' x 38' saltwater inground pool with concrete walls, liner, stadium steps (2022), and a dedicated pool house—creating a setting as welcoming today as it was generations ago. Nestled in the Historic Three Village area, the home is part of the acclaimed Three Village School District and just minutes from Stony Brook University and Hospital. Nearby nature trails, parks, shopping, dining, and easy highway access all add to its appeal. With true taxes of $10,953, this home offers a unique opportunity to own a piece of history while enjoying modern comforts in a sought-after community.
