It's quite charming! Does it still exist?

I can't confirm.

Hey, I've lived in Bay Shore nearly my entire life, and though I can't be sure it's the exact same home, this house does look awfully like one in the O'Connee Estates area. I think on Gardiner Lane.

Fun fact: Gardiner Lane, Gardiner's Park and Gardiner Manor Elementary School in Bay Shore are all named after famous resident First Lady Julia Gardiner Tyler.

I lived at 17 Garner Lane and you are right, this house is on that street.
