Tiny Rocky Point cottage jams big living into small space, hits LI market for $399K

Somehow, they managed to find room for two bedrooms.

A tiny, cozy-looking bungalow that just hit the market in Rocky Point packs a pair of bedrooms into just 596 square feet, set on a relatively spacious 7,800-square-foot property.

The home at 229 Locust Drive is listed for $399,000.

Built in 1940, the one-bathroom, cottage-style residence has been updated with new luxury vinyl flooring, new cabinets, a fresh coat of paint and new windows, according to the listing at Keller Williams Realty. Additionally, the roof is just over two years old.

While compact-looking from the outside, the home features a functional layout that appears to maximize practically every inch of available space. The listing describes the property as “clean, cozy, comfortable and move-in ready,” with “so many possibilities to grow at your own convenience.”

The property’s oversized lot gives potential buyers room the ability to expand or simply enjoy the big yard.

Buyers would also have the opportunity to join the North Shore Beach Property Owners Association, providing access to nearby private beaches along the Long Island Sound.
