The Greens at Half Hollow

The Greens at Half Hollow is a premier 55+ gated country club community spread across approximately 400 rolling acres in Melville, on Long Island's North Shore. Developed by the Benjamin Organization and Kabro Associates, the community is home to roughly 1,200 residences and is fully built out. Homes span three distinct product types: two-bedroom condominium units from about 1,040 to 1,140 square feet, attached townhouses grouped in quads, and larger semi-attached villas ranging from roughly 1,940 to 3,200 square feet with 2-car garages, some with basements and many with golf course or pond views. Mediterranean-inspired courtyard entries, vaulted ceilings, and eat-in kitchens are signatures of the attached home styles. The centerpiece of community life is a 30,000-square-foot clubhouse that houses a full fitness center, indoor pool, saunas, card rooms, media room, library, on-site restaurant, bar/lounge, and a 6,000-square-foot multi-purpose grand ballroom that hosts live performances, holiday parties, and resident events throughout the year. Outside, residents enjoy an Olympic-size heated outdoor pool, four tennis courts, walking and biking trails, and scenic ponds woven through the grounds. The 18-hole Buddy Johnson-designed executive golf course — completed in 2003 at par 60, about 4,100 yards — sits at the heart of the property, with a pro shop and driving range on site. Golf membership is optional, not mandatory, but every homeowner is a mandatory social member of the country club, which has historically been operated separately from the HOA. Security is a major draw: two manned gates (the main gatehouse on Old South Path Road) provide 24-hour monitored access. Social life is built around men's and women's clubs, card games, musical performances, tennis leagues, golf groups, an annual holiday fair, and frequent clubhouse gatherings — giving the community a genuine country-club-within-a-neighborhood feel. Location is a strong suit. The community sits right between the Long Island Expressway (Exit 50) and Northern State Parkway (Exit 40S) near the Route 110 corridor, putting major shopping, restaurants, beaches, county parks, and Huntington village amenities minutes away. Manhattan is about 30 miles west via LIE, with LIRR service from Huntington station reaching Penn Station in roughly an hour. A portion of units participate in the Long Island Housing Partnership affordable housing program for income-qualified 55+ buyers, giving the community a modest price spread alongside its luxury villa stock.
