If you want a house with an outdoor fireplace

The outdoor fireplace on this two-acre property is on a patio made of Orchard stone (a naturally porous stone than doesn't hold heat), where there is a built-in barbecue.

The property, which abuts a 39-acre preserve, has a separate building with an indoor gunite pool, a spa bathroom, a sauna and a guest room. There are two walls of sliding-glass doors that open as well as a retractable roof. "Everything is directed to the backyard," the listing agent says.

The nine-room house - a 1990 postmodern - features a new kitchen designed in part with custom cabinets, a mosaic backsplash, granite countertops and multiple refrigerators and dishwashers. The house has four bedrooms and three full baths and three half-baths. Deborah Hauser, Daniel Gale Sotheby's International Realty, Cold Spring Harbor, 631-692-6770
