Property Description

Nestled in the heart of historic Douglas Manor, 6 Knollwood Avenue is a rare gem with a fascinating past and exceptional setting. Originally built as a freestanding carriage house with a full apartment for a driver, this distinctive residence blends old-world charm with a surprisingly open, airy interior. Set on an unusually deep lot that stretches from Knollwood Avenue through to Richmond Road, the property enjoys a wide, landscaped front lawn with sweeping views of Little Neck Bay and the Throgs Neck Bridge — a picturesque vantage that adds to its storybook appeal. Just one house in from the waterfront, this home was once part of a larger estate whose main residence still sits directly on the shoreline next door. Inside, the main level offers a bright, open floor plan that’s unexpected for a home of this vintage. A spacious living room flows easily into a generous dining area with plenty of space for relaxing or a work-from-home corner. The kitchen awaits your personal vision and is complemented by a handy pantry tucked under the staircase. Upstairs are three comfortable bedrooms, all together on the same level. The primary bedroom enjoys views of Little Neck Bay, while two additional bedrooms feature charming built-ins — cozy beds, bookcases, and drawers that add both character and functionality. A large full bath and a built-in hallway bookcase complete the upper floor. At the rear, the lot narrows gracefully to a detached two-car garage and driveway on Richmond Road — an uncommon configuration in Douglas Manor that offers added convenience and privacy. Mature trees and garden beds surround the home, creating a peaceful retreat just steps from the waterfront, the Douglaston Club, and the LIRR. A piece of neighborhood history with timeless curb appeal and endless potential to make your own — welcome to 6 Knollwood Avenue.
