Owner Jack Morse purchased the 5-acre property in 1980. Morse created the pool house from a series of greenhouses. He was inspired by "having three kids" to turn it into an old-fashioned ice cream parlor that's a replica of the one on Main Street in Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida. A playhouse that he built for his daughter is a copy of the seven dwarfs' house in Snow White.
The earliest portion of the property's six-bedroom home dates back to the late 1700s, with other portions added later. Morse renovated the kitchen and family room and added a second floor master bath and dressing room. There's also a one-bedroom guest cottage.
The property, which also features a pond, is in the Locust Valley school district and has annual taxes of $54,265.
It's listed with Julie Accetta of Douglas Elliman Real Estate.
