About this home
Timeless charm meets modern living in this iconic 1904 Craftsman home in the heart of Stony Brook. Set on nearly an acre of beautifully landscaped grounds, this six-bedroom, five-bath residence blends original architectural detail with tasteful updates throughout.
Inside, you’ll find quarter-sawn oak woodwork, inlaid cherry, white oak, and maple floors, 10-foot ceilings, multiple fireplaces, and beautifully preserved features like pocket doors, a grand staircase, and original millwork. The kitchen has been thoughtfully modernized with granite counters, stainless steel appliances, and a center island—while maintaining the home’s historic soul.
Longtime locals may recognize this beloved property as “The Paint Box,” a name that evokes its rich past and presence in the community. Step outside to a true backyard retreat complete with a heated in-ground pool, natural rock waterfall, private pickleball court, and mature landscaping that offers both color and privacy.
The detached carriage house is a legal structure as a garage; however, there is no CO for office and second floor apartment.
Located in the sought-after Three Village School District and close to Stony Brook University, hospitals, and local amenities.
