About Me

Small photo of Kevin DurstI am a native New Yorker, and moved to Long Island in 1991.  I have sought out historical and note-worthy points of interest. Long Island offers beautiful seaside vistas and picturesque downtowns. Many downtown villages on Long Island have rich histories, New England architecural style, great shops, galleries and restaurants.  The area is abundant with public gardens and parks to enjoy with family and friends. My love of older architecture, landscape, history, photography and trivia inspired me to author my first book, Glitter That Was Once Gold: Long Island Gold Coast Trivia.  I believe the older, classic properties give Long Island towns and villages their character and charm.

Long Island has so much to offer all within a one hour ride to Manhattan and all it has to offer, and just a short ride from the Hamptons and the vineyards.   Classic Long Island homes are all over the Island whether you want to be in close proimity to the beautiful State Parks and beaches or the championship golf courses,

I am a professional real estate agent specializing in Long Island New York properties, but have a passion for the older classical properties.  Want to see "My Long Island?"
