Real estate photographer and videographer in Fort Salonga, NY

Fort Salonga is a hamlet on the north shore that crosses the line between the Town of Huntington and the Town of Smithtown, with Northport to the west, Kings Park to the east, and East Northport to the southwest. It overlooks Long Island Sound, takes in Crab Meadow on the water, and is named for a Revolutionary War era British fort that colonial forces took after landing on the beach at Crab Meadow. Route 25A, called Fort Salonga Road here, runs east and west through it, and after the Civil War the local red clay supplied a brickworks that shipped by barge to New York City.

Most of the hamlet is residential and wooded. Larger houses sit on wooded lots set back from the road, some on bluffs above the Sound, alongside mid century ranches and capes and newer colonials. On lots like these the house is often hard to see from the street, and the approach, the tree cover, and the drop toward the water are what a buyer needs to see first.

On the ground

What listings in Fort Salonga tend to need

  • Houses set back on wooded lots, where the approach up the drive is worth a few seconds of video because the house cannot be seen from the road.
  • Bluff properties above the Sound, where an aerial shows the height of the bluff, any beach stairs, and the frontage.
  • Larger houses, where twilight gives the exterior its best frame and a full property tour gives the rooms the time they need.
  • Ranches and capes that have been expanded, where the floor plan shows how the addition joins the original house.

Questions

Questions we get about Fort Salonga

Is there a real estate photographer who covers Fort Salonga, NY?
Yes. Core Media Co. shoots listing photography, 2D floor plans, aerials, and listing video across Fort Salonga, on the Huntington side and the Smithtown side, from a studio at 523 Lake Avenue in Saint James.
Can you fly a drone over a bluff property in Fort Salonga?
Yes, on every package from Photos + Air upward, when the weather, the airspace, and local rules allow it, flown by an FAA Part 107 certified remote pilot. On a bluff lot the aerial is usually the frame that matters most, because it shows the height above the water and the beach below. Wind off the Sound can ground a flight, and we tell you before the shoot if it does.
Does it matter which town a Fort Salonga listing is in?
Not to us. The hamlet crosses the line between Huntington and Smithtown, and we work on either side on the same packages and at the same prices.
What does real estate photography cost in Fort Salonga?
Priced per listing, not per town: Photos $350, Photos + Floor Plan $395, Photos + Air $495, Full Package $695, and Signature $1,250. A larger house on a wooded or bluff lot is where Signature, with twilight and a full property tour, usually earns its place.
