A Cape Cod-style waterfront rental in Rocky Point is up for $2,950.

The 1,200-square-foot property, offering three bedrooms and two bathrooms, is 70 feet up on a bluff and steps to the beach. It features a deck with sunset views and sounds of waves to sleep with.

“It’s in a parklike setting, very private, and then really the house is very cozy and welcoming,” says owner Chris Wiencek.

Although the house was built in 1930, its previous owner took the house down to the studs and completely rebuilt it around 1990. And just earlier this year, Wiencek has remodeled the kitchen area. The furnished home now features a washer/dryer, vaulted ceilings, central air conditioning and baseboard heater. Although the house is not brand-new, it’s a vintage charmer, says Wiencek.

The lease is from September 2020 to May 2021. That makes the rental suitable for visiting academics at nearby institutes such as Stony Brook University or Brookhaven National Laboratory. Restaurants and Stop & Shop are within a 10-minute drive.

Utilities and yard maintenance are not included. Pets are not allowed. There is no garage. The home is in the Rocky Point school district.
