5 Luxury New York Homes from Shelter Island to Brooklyn

Along the shoreline of the East End, this offering speaks to a modern Hamptons lifestyle shaped as much by setting as by sensibility. The listing frames a rare spring window to secure a premier residence within some of the region’s most sought-after enclaves, tracing a coastal arc from the quiet luxury of Wading River to the coveted pockets of Hampton Bays. From its Remsenburg address, the mood is calm and coastal, with an emphasis on strategic location and the understated ease that defines life near the water. The language here is deliberately focused on place—on the pull of the shoreline and the rhythm of an East End day—rather than a checklist of interiors. It’s a home positioned for those who value privacy, proximity, and the simple pleasure of living where the coast is part of the everyday.

Along the water’s edge at One Domino Square in Brooklyn, this southwest corner residence frames sweeping views of the Manhattan and Brooklyn skylines through a refined modern lens.

Three spacious bedrooms include a primary suite with custom closets and a spa-like ensuite, complete with a double vanity, standing shower, and a separate soaking tub. Life extends well beyond the front door with four floors of amenities, from hot and cold plunges to indoor and outdoor pools, a full-service fitness center, a playroom, and landscaped grilling terraces. With Domino Park as your backyard, the waterfront rhythm feels built into every day.

Down a long driveway on 1.1 acres, this custom-built Shelter Island retreat balances privacy with an easy, resort-like flow.

Radiant flooring runs throughout, paired with a Sonos sound system and a two-story, light-filled great room anchored by an indoor/outdoor stone fireplace. In the Chef’s kitchen, custom-built cabinetry and granite counters meet walls of glass, while large sliders extend daily living to a wrap-around mahogany deck overlooking greenery, a gunite pool, and a slate patio. A barn-style 4-car garage adds impressive versatility, with a second-floor apartment featuring a full kitchen and open living/dining plan. Close to Shelter Island Heights, the North Ferry, golf, tennis, hiking, and bay beaches.

Along the Gold Coast in Lloyd Harbor, this one-of-a-kind contemporary colonial pairs luxury finishes with a state-of-the-art Control4 smart-home system that manages televisions, thermostats, security, lighting, and every window shade.

Two primary suites offer flexibility, including one with cathedral ceilings, a fireplace, and a private balcony overlooking the property. The lower level adds room to spread out, with sliding glass doors to the rear yard, plus a gym and an upgraded home theater with a 4K projector and 115-inch screen. Indoors, a newly installed sauna features a custom glass enclosure and floor-to-ceiling travertine. Outside, manicured gardens unfold around heated saltwater pool and hot tub areas, an outdoor kitchen, and a gas-powered fire pit—made effortless with whole-property solar power and EV-ready charging.
