Matinecock, LI $5.495 million
Built in 1980 and “recently redesigned, enlarged and renovated,” this “magnificent” and still “European-inspired” brick home in Nassau County features “every amenity” — yes, apparently, every single one — within its more than 10,000 square feet of living space and 5 acres of “stunning,” “park-like” property. There are six bedrooms and 6 1/2 bathrooms, as well as a “grand” foyer, a “gourmet” eat-in kitchen, fireplaces in the living room and library and a home office adjoining the master suite. Outside, it gets even more resort-like: a gunite pool with a “pavilion” and a stone patio, a Har-Tru tennis court and a putting green. Agents: Barbara Catalano and Marianna Kirikian, Daniel Gale Sotheby’s, 516-384-9237 and 516-650-5270

How big is this “trophy penthouse”? So big that it needs two buildings to contain it. More specifically, that’s 4,600 square feet of interior space — and another 2,300 square feet of “landscaped” rooftop terrace — “sweeping across” adjacent prewar condo buildings on North Moore Street. In an act of “architectural splendor” that preserves the early 1900s “ambiance” and also offers modern-day luxury, the loft is arranged as a duplex with four bedrooms, 3 1/2 bathrooms and two woodburning fireplaces beneath “soaring” ceilings. There are actually three kitchens, too: Besides the primary “restaurant-grade” kitchen, there’s an open kitchen in the library and another one, “fully equipped,” out on the terrace, making it easy to take the party outside.

Water Mill, LI $23.9 million
Don’t let the words “summer cottage” fool you — after all, a summer cottage built in the 1920s on Mecox Bay like this one ain’t some cabin in the woods. With 300 feet of “pristine” waterfront on the bay, this “extraordinary” Hamptons estate covers 4 acres of “lawn, lush landscaping and flowering gardens.” Oh, and there’s also a 50-foot-long pool and a private dock for your dinghy or speedboat. The three-story Traditional-style house (yeah, some cottage) has been “fully updated” and includes seven bedrooms and six bathrooms. With high, beamed ceilings and large windows in every room, the “spectacular” views stretch to the Atlantic Ocean.
