Away From it All! Bright, generous and well located 5-bedroom/3.5 Heights house
The house has just been renovated from top to bottom. A 10/15 minute walk from the North Ferry (you can take LIRR or the Jitney right to the ferry) and about another 10/15 minute walk the opposite direction down a dirt road to Sunset (Crescent) Beach. The kitchen is well equipped with double oven Viking range, Bosch and Fischer Pykel appliances, as well as all the equipment for cooking. Also has a large Weber grill on the deck. House boasts both a (massive) living room and family room and an equally massive dining room that seats 14. The house has five bedrooms, including a master bedroom with a king size bed, two bedrooms with queen size beds, another room with twin beds (I have straps that convert them to a king ) and a room with bunk beds that can be pulled apart. There are two large fire places and central AC. There are swings, a jungle gym and plenty of yard games (corn hole, bocce, croquet), ping pong and board games. You will also have access to a beach cabana and access to the Heights Beach Club. Beautiful horizon views, especially in winter, when you have a view of the creek and Dering Harbor. Short walk down to Shelter Island Heights restaurants and stores.

No pool no problem. No water view no problem. Great house fully equipped in the kitchen and elsewhere Great location with nice walks into the the village for a snack, dinner, shopping or just a nice stroll among the old Victorian homes in the heights. A hospitable and responsive host is an added blessing. Enjoy.
We are just back from a glorious August week at this lovely house. We were already excited by the pictures and early conversations with the lovely owner, but the reality was even better!
The house is large and comfortably and so well appointed (e.g., lovely soap, all the cooking stuff you could ever need, tons of games, beach accessories, hammocks, seating aplenty everywhere, fresh flowers, etc.). The location is spot-on -- you can walk to town and also to a number of beaches, but you are on a quiet street with limited traffic and a huge backyard.
We were two families with four very small children between us and the house was the perfect size. Everyone had plenty of space to do their own thing and to be together.
I cannot say enough good things about this spot and about Rob who was such a gracious and easy host during every interaction.
The house is beautiful, well maintained and private. It had everything we needed. Our whole family - at every age - was so comfortable and able to relax completely. The location is perfect near restaurants and beaches, and an easy walk into town. Perfect spot on a perfect island.
Highly recommend! Outstanding, beautiful house! Our family was in town for a wedding and very happy we stayed here: Private & tranquil setting, spacious, clean & tastefully renovated, everything needed is there—plentiful & top quality, lots of group gathering spaces with ample & comfy seating, bedrooms comfy w/good closet & bath. Great Location: close to everything, 10-15 minute walk to town/restaurants/North Ferry/public golf course. Owner Rob is easy to deal with, responsive, accommodating and kindly welcomed us with a bottle of wine. Can’t wait to return! Highly recommend.
