About This Home

Luxury Redefined in Massapequa Shores, a striking statement of modern luxury, this extraordinary home recently reimagined from the ground up, where uncompromising craftsmanship, cutting-edge technology, and resort-inspired living converge. Every detail has been meticulously curated, from the elegant porcelain tile flooring that flows throughout the main level to rich hardwood floors upstairs. Behind the walls, virtually every major system is brand new, including all plumbing and electrical lines, a new 200-amp electrical service, a state-of-the-art HVAC system with all new ductwork, and a Navien combination boiler and water heater. At the heart of the home is a spectacular designer kitchen featuring premium Thermador built-in appliances, an oversized walk-in pantry with a 150-bottle wine refrigerator, and seamless flow for entertaining. The luxurious primary suite offers a spa-inspired bath with radiant heated floors, a spacious walk-in closet, and a true private retreat. Designed for effortless living, the home also features radiant heated flooring throughout the first level, a gas fireplace, whole-home water filtration, complete smart home automation for lighting, audio, video and climate, plus an integrated alarm and camera system. The Florida room extends the living space year-round with its own mini-split heating and cooling system and is already equipped with plumbing for a future wet bar. A full attic provides bonus space for abundant storage. With four spacious bedrooms, three beautifully appointed full baths, generous closets throughout, and every luxury imaginable, this is more than a home—it's a showcase of exceptional design and craftsmanship in one of Massapequa Shores' most desirable neighborhoods. Step outside to your own private resort, all surrounded by elegant marble pavers. Every inch has been thoughtfully planned, every finish carefully selected, and every detail executed to the highest standard.
