A four-bedroom, 3½-bathroom split-level on a canal in East Rockaway is on the market for $1.279 million. Annual taxes are $25,253.
Built in 1954 and renovated in 2014, the 3,400-square-foot house has an updated dock and bulkhead with a large paver patio. Each level of the home has decks overlooking the water, including one with French doors off the primary bedroom.

“It’s a spectacular and unique waterfront property that gives you a feeling of being on vacation as soon as you walk through the door,” said listing agent Megan Branigan of Branch Real Estate Group in Sea Cliff. “The views from both the upper and lower decks are stunning and peaceful.”
The front of the home has a slate and brick walkway and entry next to an attached two-car garage. The kitchen includes high-end appliances and sits off the family room, which features a wall of floor-to-ceiling windows with canal views. The three full bathrooms are tiled.

Upstairs are three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The primary bedroom has cathedral ceilings. A downstairs den could be converted to a fifth bedroom or office.
Powerboats and water scooters are permitted in the canal, which connects to South Shore waterways. The home is in a flood zone and requires flood insurance, which costs the current owners about $3,900 a year, Branigan said.

Set on a 0.13-acre property that is professionally landscaped, the house is zoned for the Lynbrook Union Free School District and is an approximate 40-minute commute by train to Manhattan.
