Mattituck, LI $3.1 million
Though long seen as the antithesis to the Hamptons, the North Fork is embracing estate living . . . at least when it comes to this “elegant” country mansion on 5 “secluded” acres of “family compound” surrounded by the vineyards, wineries and horse farms that earned the region its quiet reputation. Built in 2004, this 7,200-square-foot home includes four bedrooms, 3½ bathrooms and plenty of “extra rooms,” as well as family, living and dining rooms that are “ideal for entertaining” (along with a kitchen that is “a chef’s dream”). Beyond, there is a pool house with its own kitchenette, a Gunite pool (of course), a separate garage (with space for guests) and more than 5,000 square feet of blue-stone terraces.

Brookville, LI $9.8 million
To get a sense of the grand standards of this Georgian manor known as “Broadhollow,” consider that it was originally designed to oversee an estate of 108 acres. (Now that’s broad.) True, about 100 of those acres have since been ceded to other owners and uses, but that still leaves you with plenty of space — and all the charm and cachet of the house, from the “elegant architectural details” to the distinction of its venerated past owners (some Vanderbilts among them). The 12 bedrooms and eight-plus bathrooms are impressive enough, but its entertaining rooms, like the “opulent” grand salon, black walnut library and “exquisite” dining room with Gracie murals, reflect the estate’s “timeless luxury.” Outside, you’ll find a swimming pool and a par-three golf hole.

One, two, three: This “one-of-a-kind” loft features two bedrooms and 2½ bathrooms on two levels, plus three 15-foot-tall Beaux Arts arched windows. Three, four, five and zero: The home offers a total of 3,450 square feet of space, with enough room to include a “state of the art” media room that opens onto its own private terrace. There’s also a full dining area, as well as a separate space with a refrigerated bar. The kitchen, meanwhile, should inspire you to greatness wherever you look, with its “top of the line” appliances, as well as a direct view of the Empire State Building.
