1930’s GEORGIAN-STYLE HOME FOR SALE ON LONG ISLAND

A beautiful 7000 sq ft red brick mansion in Woodbury, on the North Shore of Long Island, is up for sale for $2.4MM and includes a tennis court and a pond. The home is on 2 manicured acres, has a large courtyard, gardens and a graveled drive. It is tucked behind stone walls. Trees and hedges shield the house from view. There are oak floors, 12’ vaulted ceilings and crown moldings. There are 7 bedrooms and 7 baths, 4 fireplaces, a climate controlled wine cellar and 4-car garage. This stately and elegant home was built in 1935. Home sales are up almost 9% from last year in price. The home is in the small hamlet within Oyster Bay, but there were only 6 sales in the 11797 zip code, down 40% from the previous year from February to April. Average income in the town is $120,000/year. Sounds like a good price for a beautiful historic home!
