Steeped in the history of Orient, this exceptional Craftsman-style residence occupies a remarkable setting along historic Main Road, once known as King’s Highway, directly across from the entrance to Orient Beach State Park. Originally purchased by a member of the pioneering Latham farming family, the home was thoughtfully expanded in the 1920s with the addition of its signature wide front porch and interior improvements. In 1938, the family donated the land across the street that would become the entrance to today’s Orient Beach State Park, forever connecting this property to one of the North Fork’s most treasured destinations.

Architecturally, the home showcases timeless Craftsman character with distinctive three part windows across the front facade, each crowned with elegant lozenge paned transoms. The welcoming front entrance, framed by classic sidelights, opens to interiors where original woodwork, period doors, and handcrafted details remain beautifully intact. Modern updates to the large country kitchen, bathrooms, natural gas heating, and central air provide today’s comforts while preserving the home’s historic integrity.

The property’s story extends beyond the main residence. A historic building from the famed Orient Point Inn, a resort established in 1672, was relocated to the backyard in the early twentieth century. Once serving as the inn’s men’s rooms and kitchen building, it now anchors the grounds as a fascinating reminder of Orient’s maritime heritage.

Life here is defined by both history and location. Relax on the expansive front porch where seasonal water views, cool coastal breezes, and the distant sound of ferry horns create an unmistakable North Fork atmosphere. The original wood-burning fireplace, gracious front and rear staircases, and oversized country kitchen invite gatherings both large and small.

Protected open space bordering one side of the property, paired with a classic neighboring farmhouse and historic barn on the other, preserves the peaceful character that has defined Orient for generations. Just moments away are Orient Beach State Park, Duryea’s Marina and Restaurant, the Cross Sound Ferry, and Orient Point County Park with its iconic lighthouse. Whether exploring by bicycle, spending the day on the beach, or simply enjoying the quiet rhythm of this waterfront community with some of the best fishing off of Plum Gut, every day feels connected to the rich history and natural beauty that make Orient one of Long Island’s most treasured destinations.

This is more than a historic home. It is an opportunity to become the next steward of a property that has helped shape the story of Orient for generations

Welcome to 550 Madison Avenue in Greenport, a thoughtfully designed New Construction farmhouse that feels comfortable from the moment you arrive. The covered front porch is more than an architectural detail. There is actually room for a chair and side table, creating the perfect spot for a quiet morning coffee.

Inside, wide 6-inch oak floors connect the bright, open living spaces. The powder room is conveniently located near the front entrance, but it is tucked far enough away from the open living room, dining area, and kitchen to give everyone a little privacy when the house is full.

The custom kitchen design brings together the features buyers keep asking for, including a paneled refrigerator, a full pantry closet, open shelving, generous cabinetry, and a kitchen sink positioned beneath a window overlooking the backyard. Even doing the dishes comes with a view of the established maple trees.

A full glass slider in the dining area fills the back of the home with natural light and creates an easy connection to the outdoor entertaining spaces and grill. The backyard views can also be enjoyed from the living room, making the surrounding landscape feel like part of the interior design.

Upstairs, the primary bedroom features a peaceful en-suite bathroom with distinctive tile flooring and calm, carefully selected finishes. Even the first-floor powder room has beautiful wallpaper, adding personality and making this New Construction home feel intentional rather than predictable.

The fully fenced backyard is surrounded by established maple trees, creating a quiet and private setting that feels like a hidden corner of Greenport. The newly installed stone patio includes an outdoor cushioned conversation area, a separate outdoor dining patio, and a dedicated fire pit for evenings under the trees. There is also room to explore the possibility of adding a pool without making the yard feel crowded.

The location brings the North Fork lifestyle within easy reach. The Greenport LIRR station and Hampton Jitney stop are approximately half a mile away for convenient transportation to New York City. Aldo’s Coffee is about a three-minute bike ride or a ten-minute walk, with Greenport Village shops, restaurants, waterfront destinations, and local beaches all close enough to enjoy without always getting back into the car.

New Construction, a custom kitchen, paneled appliances, wide oak floors, en-suite bathrooms, a fenced backyard, mature trees, outdoor entertaining spaces, and easy access to Greenport Village. This might be the one you have been waiting for. You really need to come see it. In the evening it sparks with fireflies to capture summer vibes in Greenport Village.

What stands out about this home is how established and inviting it already feels. Mature trees and thoughtful landscaping surround the property, creating a beautiful setting from the moment you arrive. The covered front porch is a perfect place to sit and take in the changing colors of spring and summer, including the striking blue blossoms of the mature Vitex that become a highlight of the landscape each season.

Inside, the home has an easy, open flow with wood floors, a spacious hallway leading to the bedrooms, and a living room and kitchen that connect naturally for everyday living and entertaining. Just off the garage, the laundry room and mudroom create a practical drop zone for shoes, bags, beach gear and everything else that helps keep the main living spaces organized.

The fenced backyard has its own personality, with an outdoor fire pit, established vegetable gardens, a huge fig tree and an additional garden shed for tools, bikes and outdoor storage. It is the kind of yard that already feels lived in, cared for and ready to enjoy.

Location adds another layer to the lifestyle. Iconic 67 Steps Beach is within walking distance for those incredible sunsets over Long Island Sound, while Greenport's coffee shops, restaurants and village destinations are close enough that grabbing your morning coffee does not always have to involve getting in the car.

It is a home that combines comfortable everyday living with gardens, outdoor spaces and one of the things that makes Greenport so special: the ability to enjoy the beach, the village and the North Fork lifestyle right outside your door.

The first thing I noticed about this house was actually the side entrance. There’s this casual mudroom entry with pieces of driftwood collected from the beach tucked around the railings, and it immediately gives the house that relaxed coastal cottage feeling.
Inside, the morning light is probably one of my favorite things. The corner dining nook has windows on both sides, so the sunlight just pours into the room. From there, everything connects. The dining area opens visually to the kitchen, where the sink sits under a window looking out toward the outdoor dining table, and the living room is right there too. You can literally be cooking, sitting at the table or relaxing on the sofa and still see the TV. It’s a really comfortable layout for everyday living.
The two bedrooms are nicely separated into the sleeping side of the house with the full bathroom nearby. The larger bedroom easily accommodates a king size bed, and the second works perfectly with a queen, so it feels much more like a year round home than just a little summer cottage.
But the backyard might be where I would spend most of my time. A deck runs along the length of the house with room for outdoor dining and seating, then there’s another spot with double lounge chairs where you could disappear with a book or just sit there and do absolutely nothing, which honestly sounds pretty good. At night, string lights run through the trees and completely change the atmosphere around the fire pit, with seating for six or more. Between the established plantings, mature trees and detached two-car garage, the backyard feels private, comfortable and finished.
Then you discover Conkling Point Beach.
The association provides access to this beautiful 2.5 acre crescent shaped sandbar just a few doors away. It has sandy beach, open water views toward The Pridwin and Sunset Beach on Shelter Island, and some incredible spots to settle in with your beach chairs beneath the windswept trees. With the breeze coming off the water and the sun dropping across the horizon, it can honestly feel like you found your own little island.
What makes the location work so well is that you get that quiet beach community atmosphere without feeling removed from everything. Greenport Village is about a 10 minute drive away, while Goldsmith’s Marina and Southold Fish Market are even closer.
It’s the kind of house that feels easy. Morning coffee in the sunny dining nook, dinner outside on the deck, a walk down to the beach, then back home to the fire pit under the lights.

Built in 1910, this classic Greenport Village farmhouse offers something that is becoming increasingly hard to find in the Village by having an extra wide, extra deep lot with the space to truly create the backyard lifestyle you have been wanting. With an outdoor fireplace under the stars, long summer dinners, gardens, entertaining space, and afternoons spent soaking up the sun before heading down to 6th Street Beach at the end of the road to cool off with the breeze off the water.
Inside, the home retains original woodwork and that inviting farmhouse feel. With a surprisingly adaptable floor plan this house has an open layout. The front living room flows through the dining room and into the large farmhouse kitchen, creating a direct sightline all the way to the backyard. Morning light fills the kitchen, which opens naturally to the outdoor space and makes the yard a great space for outdoor dinners after having lunch at the beach.
A generously sized bedroom on the main floor is in demand, while the second level offers an excellent opportunity to create a modern primary en-suite. That adaptability is one of the property's strongest features. Many homes from the early 1900s have floor plans that can be difficult to rework, but this home offers a layout and lot size that provide far more freedom to personalize and improve.
Then there is the location. From here, Greenport Village is yours to enjoy, with easy access to the movie theater, IGA, restaurants, shops, Mitchell Park and Marina, the waterfront, and the energy that makes this Village such a special place.
For someone who appreciates original character but wants the opportunity to create a home around today's lifestyle, this is an exciting chance to reimagine a classic Greenport farmhouse and make it entirely your own.
