Kings Point
A complete guide to living in Kings Point — real estate, dining, local life, and what makes this community worth knowing.
Incorporated Village · Town of North Hempstead · Nassau County
F. Scott Fitzgerald Country on the Long Island Sound
Kings Point is an incorporated village sitting on the Long Island Sound in Great Neck, Nassau County — F. Scott Fitzgerald country. The United States Merchant Marine Academy anchors the village, lending intellectual and cultural prestige. This is one of the most exclusive residential addresses on Long Island, with waterfront estates on Long Island Sound and a buyer profile that skews toward accomplished professionals, investors, and old-money families.
Homes here trade in the multiple millions. The waterfront is pristine. Village governance is white-glove. Zoning is protective. This is acquisition-level real estate — not a stepping stone, but a destination purchase for buyers making a significant wealth statement. The typical property changes hands once a decade or less frequently.
Kings Point competes primarily with Plandome and a handful of other ultra-exclusive Nassau County addresses. Buyers at this price point are comparing Great Neck addresses to the Hamptons, the North Fork, and multi-state luxury markets. Long Island positioning is almost incidental — the buyer profile is making a statement about themselves through the address and property quality.

The Merchant Marine Academy Anchor
The United States Merchant Marine Academy — one of the nation is most selective military academies — sits at the heart of Kings Point. The campus and the waterfront character it creates give Kings Point a distinctly prestigious positioning on the North Shore. This is not just expensive real estate; it is intellectually distinguished real estate. That matters to Kings Point buyers.

Market Intelligence
Off-market is standard. Properties at this price point rarely come through MLS. The Lenard Team is one of the few resources with relationships deep enough to access inventory at this level. Serious buyers should engage the team early and often.
Waterfront command top pricing. Every Kings Point property has water exposure. The value distinction is whether it is direct Sound waterfront with private beach access (top of market) or back-lot positioning with water views (still significant, but a meaningful discount).
Cross-shopping with Plandome and Hamptons. Kings Point buyers making decisions at this price point often compare Kings Point and Plandome (both Great Neck area, different micro-locations) to Hamptons properties and international markets. Long Island positioning is one variable among many.
Wealth statement, not lifestyle choice. Buyers at this price point are making a statement through the address, the academy association, and the quality of the property. The decision to buy in Kings Point is not primarily about walkability or amenities — it is about prestige, privacy, and waterfront positioning at the market peak.
