Arts and Crafts Bungalow

Discover a charming slice of history with this delightful 1920s Arts and Crafts Bungalow, nestled in the heart of Lake Ronkonkoma. The home was built by Arthur Terry and his wife Jessie, as a summer residence. But In the 1930s, Jessie’s son William Pinkham and his wife Zoe Barnett modified the home into a full-time residence. William and Zoe were prominent in New York theater, where Zoe was a featured actress in musical comedy. She created the role of La Bellabruna for Schubert’s “Blossom Time” in which she starred from 1921 to 1924. Some of her theatrical costumes can be found in the Lake Ronkonkoma Historical Museum. This 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home boasts 1800 square feet of living space, seamlessly blending vintage charm with modern amenities. Step inside and be captivated by the authentic character, featuring beamed ceilings, original built-ins, diamond-paned windows, and gleaming wood floors throughout. The cozy stone fireplace serves as a focal point, perfect for those chilly evenings when you want to curl up with a good book. The kitchen, updated in 2015, offers a harmonious blend of contemporary functionality and period-appropriate aesthetics. The primary bedroom, located on the first floor, provides a quiet retreat, while two additional bedrooms offer versatility for family members or guests. Outside, the property truly shines with its generous lot size and outdoor space, providing ample room for gardening, entertaining, or simply enjoying the fresh air. An additional unimproved lot offers exciting possibilities for creating your own private oasis, perhaps even with a pool.
