Sands Point, NY Overview

Sands Point is a village located at the northernmost tip of the Cow Neck Peninsula on the North Shore of Long Island.  It was originally a sparsely settled summer resort with a lot of farmland.  The name of the village came from Captain John Sands, who arrived from Block Island in 1695.  Originally three families owned Sands Point, the Sands, Cornwells and Vanderbilts.  In 1910 Daniel Guggenheim bought his 216-acre Hempstead House, formerly Castle Gould.  His son Harry Guggenheim, later erected his estate Falaise nearby. Today, the estate is part of the Sands Point Preserve.  The village is made up of turn-of-the-century mansions and sprawling ranch homes.  Many properties are waterfront with beautiful views of the New York City skyline and Long Island Sound.  It is strictly a residential village and contains no commercial establishments.  It’s proximity to Manhattan is ideal for commuters who may drive to Manhattan on the Long Island Expressway, or take the Long Island Rail Road from Port Washington.
