This is a spacious studio basement apartment located in the beautiful historic neighborhood of Stony Brook. This is a spacious studio basement apartment connected to our private home with private outside entrance. Car park spaces available. There is a large living and dining space with a full size home theater (including surround sound and cable television). The bedroom area features a comfortable Queen sized bed with attached bathroom. There is a small kitchenette/bar area equipped with a microwave, fridge, bar sink, electric kettle, toaster and Keurig coffee machine (with tea and coffee provided). The main house features a large back patio, BBQ and swimming pool, which guests can enjoy during the warmer months! The house is set off the main road in a lovely secluded and wooded area- a little oasis for you to enjoy. Guests are allowed to enjoy the shared spaces of the backyard (with swimming pool, patio and BBQ), parking spaces and can have access to washing and drying facilities on the main property. The access to the apartment is private and the amount of interaction we have with you is entirely up to you. The outside areas are shared with the main house occupants, however if you would like to have your privacy you can definitely have that here! We will be available whenever you need to assist you with your stay, or to provide excellent recommendations on where to go for a good glass of wine and a meal. We are located a five minute (maybe even less!) drive away from Stony Brook University and Stony Brook train station. The house is a five to ten minute walk to the lovely historic Stony Brook Village featuring a number of top quality restaurants and cafés. It is a five-minute walk through the lush Avalon Park featuring walking trails through the woods and meadows. There is a large shopping mall, Loewe’s Cinema and Wholefoods, Trader Joe and Stop and Shop supermarkets located a 10-minute drive away. The house is located five minutes away from Stony Brook LIRR train station. There is a car rental place located opposite the station in the Getty Garage gas station (next to the 7-11). With prior arrangement, we are happy to collect you from the station where possible. We have cats and a dog who stay in the main house. The animals are not permitted inside the apartment and so they should not bother you however they do use the backyard. We are happy to keep the animals in doors at your reasonable request.
