Virtually Staged
Where Elegance Meets Comfort.
The Hamlet of Oakdale, New York is located in Suffolk County’s Town of Islip. Villa Del Sol is beautifully set in the locale of Idle Hour, the historic former 900-acre estate of railroad mogul and financier William Kissam Vanderbilt. Situated along the Connetquot River, the area is known for its natural beauty, luxurious estates, proximity to marinas, golf, water sports, sandy beaches and nature preserves.
A gated circular drive arrives at a landscaped forecourt introducing this stately five-bedroom estate. The residence is perfectly situated on a generous acre featuring mature plantings and lush green lawns. A magnificent interpretation of Beaux-Arts architecture, the stucco facade is adorned with attractive sculptural detailing and arch-topped windows. Punctuated by classically inspired dormers and chimneys, rooflines with various elevations add interest to the design. A columned covered portico welcomes guests.
Double mahogany doors open to a light-filled and spacious floor plan with beautifully proportioned rooms rich in architectural details. Beautiful decorative custom moldings tailor each room and distinguish the interiors. Emphasis is placed on symmetry, spacious scale and refinement in every detail. The double height foyer features two grand columns and comfortable radiant heat that travels through a gallery hall from which principal rooms are accessed. A second level bridge hallway with a lovely scrollwork railing overlooks the foyer on one side and the voluminous formal living room on the other. The living room features a spectacular bowed wall of glass that soars from floor to double height ceiling. It frames garden and nature preserve views in the distance. Large in scale, the room has many possibilities for seating arrangements. Intricate moldings add refinement to the space. Adjacent to the foyer, a sitting room has a raised fireplace and wainscoting. A coffered ceiling and fireplace with a marble surround are featured in the handsome office. The spacious and light-filled billiard/game room has access to the gardens and a stairway to the second level. A bedroom suite features a multipurpose sitting room with access to the gardens. The sitting room can easily be set up as a work from home or homework room. On the opposite side of the foyer, a well-appointed den has a sleek fireplace. This space can be used as a relaxed reception room for visitors. Setting the stage for wonderful gatherings and entertaining, the formal dining room has a refined ambiance with detailed hand painted crown moldings.
