There's a good number of canal-front homes, too -- some with bulkheads and floating docks, adds resident Lois Fogal of Century 21 AA Realty, noting the area is popular for its waterfront dining.

Residents have easy access to a few major roadways and highways, including the Seaford-Oyster Bay Expressway. Shops, services and eateries can be found along Merrick Road, as well as on Jerusalem Avenue, Hicksville Road and Sunrise Highway.

Buyers can find a mix of housing styles, including Colonials, Capes, split-levels, ranches and high-ranches. Waterfront prices can range from the mid- to upper-$300,000s to the $900,000s.
