Orient & Orient Point Homes for Sale

Orient is the last hamlet on the North Fork and the most deliberately preserved. The village is a designated historic district of eighteenth and nineteenth-century houses, the surrounding farmland is largely protected, and there is no commercial strip to speak of — the effect is of somewhere that stopped changing a hundred years ago and intends to keep it that way.

Orient Beach State Park runs out along a sand spit into Gardiners Bay, and at Orient Point the Cross Sound Ferry crosses to New London, Connecticut — eighty minutes, cars aboard, which makes New England considerably more accessible from here than from anywhere else on Long Island. Orient and Orient Point are separate MLS areas and both are listed below.
