Filled with natural light and designed for effortless entertaining, Longhaven pairs refined interiors with the serenity of a private lakeside setting, all within easy reach of Mineola. Main Residence At the heart of manicured gardens and sweeping lawns, the 4300 sq ft house overlooks the pool and private spring-fed lake which are framed by mature pine, oak and southern magnolia trees. A sunroom opens to the pool terrace and lawns descending gently to the boat house and water’s edge.

Throughout the home, thoughtful renovations honour its heritage, preserving original hardwood floors, period fixtures, classic tilework and decorative details that define Longhaven’s enduring sense of style. Guest Accommodation and Estate Buildings At the lake’s edge, a charming 420 sq ft lake cabin provides an inviting private retreat, complete with a bathroom and additional guest sleeping accommodation.
