This Classic Estate is the Crown Jewel of Long Island’s North Shore
Somerset was built in 1935 and was modelled after the Governor's Palace in Williamsburg, Virginia.
With its classic Colonial Revival facade, the 7-bedroom, 5+1 bathroom residence has serious curb appeal, set back on a long, private drive and overlooking Long Island Sound.
The interiors are equally grand, featuring classic proportions and intricate finishes throughout its fine, formal rooms with stone pediments and fireplaces.
The elegant residence has a spiral, central staircase (perfect for grand entrances), a bright conservatory room, and an impressive panelled wine cellar.
The waterfront estate spans 11 acres of grounds and neighbours a woodland nature preserve, offering tranquillity, privacy, and an abundance of dreamy, pastoral landscapes.
Tucked away in the tiny village of Nissequogue on the island’s famed North Shore, Somerset comes with 700 feet of frontage on the shoreline, recently reinforced with a newly constructed seawall.
