Is this the Hamptons? It could be—but it’s so much better. Set behind the gates of Long Island’s only Gold Coast community with guards on duty 24 hours a day, 1 Pembroke Drive is a pristine 1.25-acre estate offering exceptional privacy, security and resort-style living, with sweeping views of Long Island Sound. The residence encompasses approximately 8,200 square feet of finished living space across three levels, all connected by a private elevator. The 2,550-square-foot main level is designed for entertaining, while the 2,900-square-foot second floor provides expansive private living space. The 2,750-square-foot lower level is dedicated to recreation and wellness, with a private gym, massage room, billiard and game space, entertainment center and wine cellar. A courtyard entrance creates an impressive arrival and accommodates parking for eight cars, with room for eight additional vehicles along the side—an uncommon advantage for large-scale entertaining. Outside, approximately 2,100 square feet of tiered decking overlooks the grounds, with a graceful spiral staircase connecting the upper and lower levels. Approximately 1,400 square feet of covered outdoor living space features wainscoted ceilings and ceiling fans, creating an inviting setting for dining and entertaining from spring through fall. Expansive decks and balconies capture beautiful Long Island Sound views and sunsets. At the heart of the property, approximately 2,750 square feet of patio surrounds a spectacular 60-by-16-foot saltwater Gunite pool and Jacuzzi. An outdoor kitchen and pool house complete the setting, creating a private resort within the estate. The pool house offers direct access to the massage room, wine cellar and fitness studio, connected by a striking spiral staircase that rises to a top-floor loft with sweeping views of the Sound. The property borders more than two acres of common land, with mature trees framing the grounds and providing remarkable privacy and a sense of permanence. Beyond the estate itself, residents enjoy the amenities of the exclusive Legend Beach Club and Marina, including a private clubhouse, beach, marina, mooring rights, Indoor tennis courts, pickle ball & basketball. Boat and seaplane access offer another level of convenience, while Glen Cove’s revitalized downtown and Manhattan remain within easy reach.
