Community Profile
The picturesque harborside village of Northport attracts plenty of visitors while maintaining a sense of serenity.
The thriving heart of the village is along Main Street, with its shops, restaurants and churches. But nearby, park benches overlooking Northport Harbor provide opportunities to relax, read and watch the boats.
Much of Northport's terrain is hilly. Neighborhoods feature a variety of home styles, including cottages, capes, ranches, split- levels, Colonials, contemporaries and Victorians. Waterfront condominiums range from $700,000 to $1.5 million.
There is a small apartment complex on Main Street, and other rental opportunities can be found.
