Lower Price Spacious Waterfront Property on Shelter Island

Back in the 80's my parents were sailing to Block Island and anchored in Shelter Island for a few nights and fell alive with the place. They bought land with one of the best views on all of Shelter Island and build a home where everyone, no matter which bedroom awakens to a beautiful water view. My parents collected art, they have great taste. And in my opinion the best and most valuable artwork they ever purchased is the view from their deck. I'm an artist too and I have been photographing Dickerson Creek for decades. I never tire of it. Everyday and throughout the day the composition and the light change. It's like a new stunning landscape painting is produced again again all day, every day. It still takes my breath away 30 years later. My children learned to kayak, paddle board and catch crabs, fish and clams in this creek. They learned to swim in the greatest swimming hole on Shelter Island just across the creek at the end of Wade's beach. The yard is perfect for badminton, bbq's, a firepit, and slip-n-slide. It's also a perfect spot on the road to set up a lemonade stand. It's basically just a perfect spot.

Shelter Island is about the water. This house is about the water and the memories that you will have and create on this special spot on this special island. When I was a kid I begged my parents to build a pool at the house. My father said, "Look outside. There's no need for a pool, it would be a distraction." He was right. Why waste any time with a pool when you are on a beach, there's crabs to chase and beaches to explore.

Location. Location. Location. And a well loved home.
