LIMA will become famous soon enoughLIMA will become famous soon enough
I think it was woodhull landing road, dead end.. last year .. sound beach ...

Watched a girl playin with heroin, possibly 21, looked as if she may have had a kid, a small van pull up and some more drug playing, then some locals took a walk down to the beach at which point i noted to myself, how this is rampant all over....

So now this is sound beach... Like i said people do not pay attention, or they simply do not know what to look for.

Look for yourself and pay attention... i have and can find this EVERYWHERE.

Not to judge people, but 3 of the later to stroll by wouldn't probably be seen as the crowd to be with.

No problem, but check Lake Panamoka and Wading River too.

Good point and thats a sad story but it doesent change the fact that Sound Beach blows Mastic away by any measure imaginable.

Its a much better buy.

Sound Beach is effing Mayberry.

You got me Walter.

Are we back to the Tides debate

I think those neighborhoods may be too expensive for op since he was shopping Mastic.

Heres my steal of the week...walk to beach too.
Rocky Point, NY, 11778 - MLS ID#2195078 - Single Family Home real estate - REALTOR.com®
Sound beach was sold for $15 lots back in the 30's, same type community as many of the beach communities out here...city people owned the houses and rented them... many have been sold with the super bs inflated prices the RE pulled off though...


That steal of the week is 1000 sq ft, @195K ...
You could find another steal for less with more sq ft

I love the levit houses sinai/coram/pjeff....all sheetrock bs construction for $450K+

Since Woodhull Landing Rd is the border of Sound Beach and Miller Place...who knows which side of the "ghetto" the druggies come from...

I will agree with Crooks here, I would buy in Sound Beach / Rocky Point over Mastic Beach any day. Better schools, safer area, etc.
