About the neighborhood
Gingerbread above the harbor
Above the North Ferry landing, Shelter Island Heights stacks Victorian cottages along curving hillside lanes, their steep gables trimmed in gingerbread woodwork from the hamlet's origins as a nineteenth-century summer colony. Many homes look toward the harbor or the Sound, and a natural amphitheater known as the Grove still sits at the center of the district.
The Heights works because it is walkable: a small commercial pocket of shops and restaurants, the Shelter Island Country Club, and Dering Harbor all sit within a stroll, and the ferry below connects to Greenport. Traditions endure, none more so than Illumination Night, when lanterns and porch lights glow across the historic cottages. Preservation rules are strict here, which is precisely what residents like about it.
