Property Description
In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the Pratt family—whose fortune was built on Standard Oil—transformed over 1,100 acres of Glen Cove into a network of grand summer estates, collectively known as “Dosoris Park.” At the center of this world was the Pratt Oval, a sprawling service compound complete with stables, workshops, offices, and facilities to support the family's mansions. While nearly all of those buildings have vanished, one striking survivor remains: the Clock Tower. Once part of the Pratt Oval's central service building, the tower now rises proudly from the grounds of 1 Ellen Court, making this home one of the most unique real estate offerings on Long Island.
Inside, the residence features sun-filled living spaces that flow effortlessly, designed for both everyday living and entertaining. Five bedrooms and three full baths create room for family or guests, with room to spare. Gather in the generous living and dining areas, or step outside to enjoy a private backyard oasis, complete with an in-ground pool and patio that invite summer relaxation.
What truly sets this property apart is the story it tells. Owning this home means more than acquiring square footage—it means becoming the steward of a rare architectural treasure, the last standing remnant of the Pratt Oval. The clock tower, visible from the grounds, is a conversation piece, a landmark, and a living connection to the Gilded Age grandeur that once defined this shoreline.
Located in Glen Cove, you'll enjoy proximity to Long Island's scenic preserves, sandy beaches, and cultural gems, while remaining within easy reach of New York City. Here, history and lifestyle combine seamlessly: the tranquil community of a residential cul-de-sac, the luxury of a poolside retreat, and the prestige of a private landmark that no other home can claim.
1 Ellen Court is more than a residence—it is history, heritage, and home. An offering like this comes once in a lifetime.
