Single-family homes in the Rocky Point Union Free School District sold for a median of $535,000 (typically $465,000–$635,000) across 203 recorded sales between Oct 6, 2025 and Oct 1, 2026, up 2.9% on the 12 months before. This home's $449,000 list price sits in the entry single-family tier for the Rocky Point Union Free School District.
ZIP 11789 has about 2.5 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 $9,947 a year, this home's property tax is in line with the roughly $10,000 typical for Rocky Point Union Free 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.
