Single-family homes in the Cold Spring Harbor Central School District sold for a median of $2,300,000 (typically $1,825,000–$2,900,000) across 68 recorded sales between Oct 7, 2025 and Sep 18, 2026, up 15% on the 12 months before. This home's $2,850,000 list price sits in the upper single-family tier for the Cold Spring Harbor Central School District.

ZIP 11724 has about 3.5 months of single family inventory — seller's market. Demand is outpacing supply, so homes sell quickly with firm pricing and limited room to negotiate.

At about $38,318 a year, this home's property tax runs roughly 32% above the $29,000 typical for Cold Spring Harbor Central School District. Suffolk bills combine town, school and special-district levies, so two homes at the same price in neighboring districts can carry materially different taxes. Exemptions such as STAR, Senior or Veteran move the number as well — a new owner's bill is often not the same as the seller's.
