7 Swartout Place, Amityville
MLS® # 896819
Wake up every morning to canal views and the quiet rhythm of waterfront living — this is the lifestyle waiting for you at 1 Central Avenue in the heart of Amityville Village. Set canal-front with direct water access and a boat slip, this character-rich Cape Cod offers one of the most coveted waterfront experiences on the South Shore of Long Island. Whether you're dreaming of a home where you can step off your dock and onto the water, or simply sip your morning coffee watching the canal from your rooftop deck, this property delivers that and so much more.
Built in 1949 and full of original charm, the home spans 2,186 square feet across two levels and greets you with the kind of architectural details that simply can't be replicated — exposed beams, original stone floors with radiant heat, French doors, elegant archways, crown molding, and built-ins surrounding a wood-burning fireplace in the sunken living room. A second fireplace in the primary bedroom adds warmth and intimacy to a suite that also features two closets, a bonus room perfect as a dressing room or walk-in, and private access to a brand new rooftop deck with Trex decking overlooking the canal. The updated upstairs bathroom is a true retreat, featuring a stunning steam shower. Hardwood floors, granite counters, an eat-in kitchen, and formal dining room round out an interior that balances timeless character with everyday comfort.
Beyond your own private waterfront oasis, the location is truly special. Amityville Village is a beloved South Shore community known for its charming downtown, dining, boutique shops, local breweries, and a vibrant year-round social scene — all just moments from your door. Commuters will appreciate the easy access to the Long Island Rail Road, and outdoor enthusiasts will love being minutes from Great South Bay, local marinas, and the best boating the South Shore has to offer. This is the kind of home and lifestyle people search for years — a rare opportunity to own a piece of waterfront Amityville with all the village amenities to match.
