29525 Main Road · Orient

A rare agricultural estate on the North Fork.

Set back roughly 250 feet from Main Road in the coveted hamlet of Orient, this 17.4-acre estate offers what almost nothing on the North Fork still does: scale. Three contiguous parcels, twenty horse stalls, a former indoor riding arena with thirty-foot ceilings, and a recently renovated 4,578-square-foot multi-use building with architectural plans already in place to convert it to a residence.

The estate combines the rare combination of two buildable residential lots — a 2.5-acre parcel at the entrance and an elevated 3-acre lot at the rear with panoramic views of the Long Island Sound — with 11.9 acres of fully fenced equestrian land in between. A blank canvas for a single-buyer compound, a working farm, a vineyard, or a multi-residence family estate.

The Three Parcels

One estate. Three distinct opportunities.

Most North Fork land is already subdivided beyond use, or locked behind preservation easements that limit what an owner can do. This 17.4-acre property is the rare exception — a deliberate three-parcel structure where a buyer can build, board horses, farm, or do all three simultaneously.

Parcel 1
2.5
Acres · Residential Use
The entrance parcel.

The first parcel from Main Road — set back approximately 250 feet for privacy. Contains four distinctive buildings totaling roughly 11,000 sq ft, plus the existing architectural plans to convert the largest barn into a single-family residence.

  • Multi-Use Barn (residence-ready)4,578 sf
  • Concrete Block Storage Building5,015 sf
  • Storage Building1,485 sf
  • Quaint Cottage Storage
Parcel 2
11.9
Acres · Development Rights Sold
The equestrian heart.

Fully fenced and tree-lined, this is the property's working land — twenty horse stalls, a former indoor riding arena with cathedral ceilings, and four paddocks. Development rights have been sold to the Town, preserving the open landscape in perpetuity while keeping all current agricultural uses fully intact.

Parcel 3

Acres · Residential Building Lot
The elevated homesite.

A three-acre buildable parcel at the rear of the estate, set on rising ground with sweeping views over the equestrian fields and long-distance vistas to the Long Island Sound. The blank canvas for a primary residence, a guest house, or — combined with Parcel 1's barn conversion — a private compound.

The 4,578 SF Barn

A barn ready to become a home.

Recently renovated with new Andersen doors and windows, a fully framed interior ready for finishes, and a spacious second-floor loft spanning the building's full width. The seller commissioned architectural plans to convert this 4,578-square-foot structure into a single-family residence — those plans convey with the sale.

Complete the conversion as designed, modify it to your own taste, or use the existing footprint as the foundation for something different entirely. The work to bring it to a permittable shell is already done.

Equestrian Excellence

Twenty stalls. Thirty-foot ceilings. Cathedral light.

The 11.9-acre equestrian parcel is fully fenced with cross-fencing, tree-lined for shade, and includes a 5,015-square-foot stable facility with twenty professionally designed horse stalls and a 6,615-square-foot former indoor riding arena with cathedral ceilings reaching thirty feet.

Continue as a working horse facility, adapt for vineyards or organic produce, or use the open acreage for cattle, livestock, or simply uninterrupted privacy. The infrastructure is in place; the use is yours to define.

The Layout

Three parcels, front to back.

Read the property south-to-north and the structure becomes obvious. Main Road runs along the south edge. From the road, a long drive runs back through Parcel 1's working buildings — the barn and storage cluster — and then opens into Parcel 2's eleven-plus acres of horse country. At the far end, where the land starts to rise, Parcel 3 sits elevated above the equestrian fields with the kind of long views that don't come up for sale on the North Fork.

The sale conveys the entire property as a single transaction. Restrictions only apply to the middle parcel (development rights sold to the Town); both buildable lots are unrestricted single-and-separate parcels.

Architectural Plans Included

A residence, drawn and ready.

The seller commissioned full architectural plans from Vincent Benic Architect for converting the 4,578 SF multi-use barn into a single-family residence — first floor, second floor, all four elevations, and a north–south section. The complete drawing set conveys with the sale.

A drone-led video tour of the estate — the entrance from Main Road, the equestrian fields, the buildings, and the elevated rear lot with its view of the Sound. Roughly two minutes.

The North Fork

Where Orient begins.

29525 Main Road sits on the easternmost stretch of the North Fork — fifteen miles past the wineries and oyster farms of Cutchogue and Mattituck, where Main Road narrows and the land thins toward the Sound and the Bay. Orient itself remains one of the most undisturbed working hamlets on Long Island.

Within reach of the gate.

A working harbor, a state park, several beaches, and a Long Island Rail Road terminus — all within a few minutes' drive. Manhattan in two and a half hours by train; less by ferry-and-car via Connecticut.
