The Architectural Narrative: A 2025 Coastal Vision
Nestled at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac within the exclusive Crescent on the Sound enclave, 110 Crescent Ct stands as a testament to the evolution of Long Island’s North Shore. Completed in 2025, this transitional-style residence is less a house and more a curated experience of light and texture. If the exterior—finished with some of the finest cedar and stonework available today—is the prologue, then the interior is the masterpiece. The home spans 4,659 square feet of sun-drenched space, anchored by six-inch rift and quartered white oak floors that glow under the massive spans of glass.
The kitchen is the conductor of this home’s orchestra, a high-performance space where handcrafted white oak cabinetry meets bold, dramatic granite surfaces. Equipped with a full suite of professional-grade Thermador appliances, it is designed for the host who demands both aesthetic perfection and culinary utility. Beyond the kitchen, nine-foot sliding glass doors erase the boundary between the Great Room and the expansive wraparound porches, creating a seamless transition to the outdoors where the Long Island Sound serves as an ever-changing living canvas.
A Walk Through History: From Clams to Counterintelligence
Wading River is not just a destination; it is a repository of American history. Long before the first colonial families arrived in 1671, the area was known to the Algonquian people as Pauquaconsuk, or “the place where we wade for thick, round-shelled clams.” This deep connection to the water remains the heartbeat of the community. In the late 19th century, the extension of the Long Island Rail Road transformed this sleepy farming hamlet into a coveted summer retreat for New York City’s elite, a legacy that 110 Crescent Ct continues into the modern era.
“Wading River evokes a historic charm with its New England-style village green and steepled churches, preserving a low-density character that is increasingly rare on Long Island.” — Local Historian Insight
Perhaps most intriguing is the town’s role in global affairs. During World War II, the nearby Benson House served as a clandestine base for the FBI, where double agents fed deceptive information to the Nazis. Today, that sense of quiet seclusion remains, though the “missions” are now focused on weekend escapes and sunset strolls along the rocky bluffs. [See more Wading River homes].
The Financials: A Market Outlier
The Wading River real estate market has seen a dramatic surge in recent years. As of late 2025, the median home price in the 11792 zip code hovered around $840,000, marking a staggering year-over-year appreciation of over 40% (Source: Redfin). At a listing price of $2,799,000, 110 Crescent Ct represents the upper echelon of this market—an ultra-luxury segment driven by the scarcity of new construction and private water access.
While the broader market remains a competitive “seller’s market,” inventory for high-end coastal estates is exceptionally tight. For the discerning investor, this property offers a rare “turn-key” opportunity in a town where historical preservation often limits new development. The price-per-square-foot of approximately $601 reflects the premium quality of construction and the invaluable deeded beach rights that accompany the title.
Lifestyle & Amenities: The North Fork’s Hidden Gate
Living at 110 Crescent Ct means having Wildwood State Park as your backyard. Spanning 600 acres of undeveloped hardwood forest, the park offers 11.5 miles of hiking and biking trails that terminate at high bluffs overlooking the Sound. For those who prefer a more refined outdoor experience, the property is just minutes from the world-class golf courses of Baiting Hollow and the gateway to the North Fork’s famous wine country, home to over 40 award-winning vineyards.
The community is anchored by the Shoreham-Wading River School District, which consistently ranks in the top 20% of New York State schools. With a student-teacher ratio of 11:1 and high proficiency rates in math and reading (Source: Niche/NY Dept of Education), the district is a primary draw for families seeking an elite educational environment without the density of western Suffolk County.
The Verdict: A Legacy Estate for the Modern Era
110 Crescent Ct is more than a coastal retreat; it is a bridge between Wading River’s storied past and its sophisticated future. It offers the privacy of a one-acre sanctuary with the social advantages of an exclusive Soundside community. From the primary suite’s private terrace—designed for watching the sunrise over the water—to the future-ready gunite pool site, every inch of this property has been engineered for a life of quiet excellence. For those seeking to claim a piece of the North Shore’s remaining pristine coastline, the search likely ends here.
