Real LI

This Huntington Bay home once belonged to George B. Cortelyou, who was a cabinet member for President Theodore Roosevelt. Cortelyou often entertained Roosevelt, an Oyster Bay neighbor, and other dignataries at the 1880 house. The 8,000-square-foot home is located on almost 3 acres on the highest point of Huntington Bay. There are nine bedrooms, five baths and four half-baths. The asking price is $3.999 million. "It's a huge house," says Jody Schmid, who is listing the property on behalf of the Huntington office of Prudential Douglas Elliman. "The landscaping is magnificent."
