Known as the Snapple house, 1245 Veeder Drive has stood as one of Hewlett Bay Parks most coveted addresses for decades — an 11,031-square-foot waterfront estate on two private acres across a rare double lot that simply cannot be recreated in today's market.
Originally built by one of the founders of Snapple, the property bears the mark of serious construction: a hand-laid slate roof, architecture by Norman Wax, and execution by Qualico Contracting. The result is a home built without compromise — and held for over three decades by the same family.
Inside, the residence spans three levels with elevator access and is organized around water views and entertainment. A dedicated entertaining wing includes a bar and temperature-controlled wine cellar. The primary suite is positioned toward the harbor, with dual walk-in closets and a spa bath with soaking tub and sauna. Five bedrooms in total.
The grounds are what set this property apart. The full two acres — across a genuine double lot, a combination nearly impossible to assemble in Hewlett Bay Park — extend to the water with a private dock with 240 feet of frontage, manicured lawns, and formal gardens. A separate poolside cabana operates as a self-contained retreat, with a full kitchen, changing rooms, bathroom, and sauna.
Properties like this do not come to market. When they do, they do not come back.
