Home Details for 161 Wallace St

Welcome to this timeless oversized Victorian—rich with character, charm, and a warm old-world soul, beautifully blended with modern-day touches. This perfect balance of history and comfort sits proudly on a quarter-acre in the heart of the prestigious Freeport Estates section of the Village. Set on a wide, tree-lined street and just a short walk to the LIRR station, public transportation, shops, restaurants, and all conveniences, this location offers unbeatable connectivity. You’re also only three blocks from the Village police and fire stations for added peace of mind. The home is also just minutes from the world-famous Nautical Mile—Long Island’s legendary waterfront destination for dining, entertainment, and nightlife—and only two blocks from the gorgeous Freeport Jr. High School, adding outstanding convenience for families. A massive wrap-around front porch embraces the entire front of the home—an estate-like welcome that invites morning coffee, evening relaxation, and year-round enjoyment. The brand-new paver walkway and two-car-wide, four-car-long blacktop driveway stretch all the way to the rear of the 140-foot-deep property, leading to your 12 ft high gable-roof 1.5-car garage with carriage-style doors and a convenient side entrance. The fully fenced 6-foot vinyl enclosure creates complete privacy and security, setting the stage for the backyard paradise of your dreams. With a lot this deep, the possibilities are endless: a pool, outdoor kitchen, cabana, play area, firepit, a gazebo, or even a vegetable and herb garden—this property can truly host it all. Inside, natural light pours through oversized windows on every level. The home faces east, blessing you with warm, golden morning sun—perfect for coffee on the porch—and a quiet, calming retreat at the end of a long day. Featuring four separate exterior entrances, the layout is designed for flexibility and convenience. One side entrance leads directly into the kitchen and the full basement. Another rear door is perfectly positioned for guests to access the closely located first-floor full bath during cookouts, gatherings, or future pool days. The dining room is highlighted by a beautiful natural wood-burning fireplace—ideal for memorable entertaining and cozy evenings. Soaring 8-foot ceilings create a sense of openness and grandeur throughout the entire home. Just off the entrance foyer, the wide Victorian staircase leads to a spacious center hall opening to four generously sized bedrooms and an oversized family bathroom. From there, a walk-up third floor reveals an enormous high-ceiling attic—offering endless potential for expansion, storage, studio space, or anything you can imagine. Don’t miss the second staircase from the kitchen leading directly to the bedrooms—perfect for the early-morning coffee runner or late-night snack missions. This home truly has it all: unforgettable curb appeal, a spectacular wrap-around porch, incredible interior warmth, and a property deep enough to create any lifestyle you dream of. A rare Victorian treasure in one of Freeport’s most sought-after neighborhoods.
