A quiet, relaxing vibe

Although Manorville’s name may sound prim and proper, it was born out of an act of rebellion. The hamlet was originally part of Manor St. George, a name honoring the British monarchy. In the mid-1800s, in an act of defiance against the British he’d fought against during the Revolutionary War, the local Long Island Rail Road station agent vandalized his depot’s sign by painting over all but “Manor.” This new, unofficial name stuck for decades until the hamlet officially changed its name with the Manorville post office’s opening in 1907. Today, Manorville has grown, but its tree-shaded streets are still known for their peacefulness. “It’s friendly, it’s quiet,” says Roseann Prussen, a Realtor with Signature Premier Properties with 14 years of experience selling here. “It’s a very relaxed feel, almost like you’re on vacation. But you’re not on vacation – because this is your home, this is where your children will grow up.”

Homes on wooded streets starting at $500,000

“It’s a little bit more rural in nature, so you have larger yards, generally speaking. That’s a big draw,” says Thomas McGiveron, a licensed associate real estate broker with Signature Premier Properties who has sold here for 15 years. According to McGiveron, properties are often over half an acre, though some with 3 to 5 acres are also easy to find. All that space allows the neighborhood’s colonial homes to be bigger, often having between four and six bedrooms. “You can live in a house for 20 or 30 years as a growing family and still be comfortable,” Prussen says. Home prices start at $500,000 and climb to around $1.2 million. “You’ve got a lot of new construction going on too,” Prussen says. “New construction is a little better than 2 acres of property, and it’s going for about $850,000 or more depending on what you want to add to it.” Greenwood Village, a 55-plus community, is a major exception, with one-bedroom ranch-style homes on much smaller plots starting at $80,000. Two-bedroom homes there range from $150,000 to $300,000.

Hiking through pine barrens, visiting zoos and amusement parks

“There’s a lot going on, whether it’s going to the park, swimming, kayaking, boating – you have everything here,” Prussen says. The Long Island State Pine Barrens Preserve is popular for hiking, mountain biking and horseback riding. The Peconic River runs through Robert Cushman Murphy County Park’s 2,200 acres, making it a go-to hiking, fishing and kayaking spot. Beginners can find guided hikes most weekends. Two country clubs, one with a public golf course, are also located in the neighborhood. One of two little zoos in Manorville, The Long Island Game Farm Wildlife Park & Children’s Zoo is popular for its petting zoo and pony rides alongside exhibits featuring giraffes, zebras and kangaroos. Scott’s Pointe is also just 4 miles away. “It’s very big,” Prussen says of the amusement park. “It has indoor wave pools and an outdoor lake with floating docks on it. It has live bands, two restaurants, two bars, a laser tag room for kids and it has go-kart races going on in the back now.” The truly adventurous may head to the Long Island Skydiving Center, which is nearby. For a calmer experience, some residents choose to walk around the grounds of The Shrine of the Lady of Our Island. “Whether you’re religious or not, the grounds are beautiful,” McGiveron says. “It’s a really nice place to walk around and they have the shrine there to the Virgin Mary. It’s peaceful.” Manorville is affectionately called the gateway to the Hamptons. While it's 26 miles from the famous summer getaway, it’s less than 8 miles from Wading River Beach on the North Shore and about 11 miles to Westhampton Beach on the South Shore.

Dining and shopping on Eastport Manor Road

Locals sit down for Italian classics at Pennachio’s and treat themselves to boba at the cheerfully pink, plushie-filled Tandy’s Bubbles. The dog-friendly Long Island Farm Brewery is packed on the weekends, as it’s a favorite spot for friends to meet up for drinks, live music and food from the rotating cast of food trucks out front. “It’s also conveniently located to the Tanger Outlets not even 15 minutes away,” McGiveron says. “About 20 minutes away, you have the North Fork, so if you’re into wining and vineyards, that’s also close by.” King Kullen and CVS provide essentials close to home.

Access to I-495, Sunrise HIghway

Although the LIRR’s Manorville Station has long since closed, McGiveron says the neighborhood’s easy access to main highways is one of its best features. Interstate 495, Eastport Manor Road, also known as County Road 111, and Sunrise Highway form three of its borders, with William Floyd Parkway just a couple of minutes away.

Manorville is a pretty rural, quiet town in Manorville. Everyone is nice and friendly and houses and neighborhoods are very clean and beautiful. We have a few farms and a pretty small shopping center but we are very close to the Hamptons and other towns making it easy to go different places. One of the newest schools on the island with good teachers.

Manorville is a calm, safe neighborhood with a rising hispanic population. With the local highschool being Eastport South Manor, students seem moderately happy, but it definitely lacks school spirit. There are a few restaurant/dinner choices. Limited job opportunities, and usually need to travel east or west for jobs.
