A three-bedroom main house and two-story, one-bedroom cottage generate more than $5,000 in monthly rental income for Irina Goldverg, who has owned the 6,000-square-foot Port Washington property since 2010, she says. Tenants, she says, appreciate the fact that both structures, built in 1935 and listed together for $930,000, look and feel like stand-alone homes. “I think we all like unique, cozy, warm places, and this property is a perfect example of that,” Goldverg says. “Everyone who has lived there says they feel like they are at home.”

Views of Great Patchogue Lake greet visitors to a BOGO property in Patchogue, listed for $599,000 by Stephanie Bryson of Marylou Swan Realty. Owner Gloria Burton says the cottage originally served as housing for early-20th century millworkers, preceding construction of the two-bedroom main house. As she prepares to depart her home of 60 years, Burton says she will miss the neighborhood.
