About Seaford
Seaford was Seaman’s Neck before it took the name of a town in East Sussex, and it stayed farmland until Sunrise Highway arrived in 1929 and tripled the population inside a generation. What is left is a compact hamlet organized around water: the canal grid of Seaford Harbor, Seaford Creek running out to the Great South Bay, and the 259 acres of Cedar Creek Park, where the Ellen Farrant bikeway runs four and a half miles to the Jones Beach path. The Babylon Branch reaches Penn Station in under an hour. A third of Seaford’s houses sit close enough to the water that a lender requires flood coverage.
Finding a residence in Seaford
We search Seaford on your behalf
We are not publishing our own listings here at present, and we would rather say so than fill the page.

Non-public opportunities are subject to seller authorization and availability.
Tell us what you are looking for in Seaford and you will hear from us within 24 hours.

Tell us what the residence has to make possible, and we will tell you honestly whether it exists here at the price you have in mind — and what it would take if it does not.

The window to challenge your assessment is short, and it is the same every year
- The window to challenge your assessment opens in January
- In Nassau the filing period runs from early January to the statutory deadline of March 1, and the grievance goes to the Assessment Review Commission. The Commission has extended that date in recent years, to March 31 for the 2027/28 roll, but each extension is announced annually and is not something to count on. It costs nothing to file, and the work worth doing now is gathering what comparable houses actually sold for. Confirm the current date with the Commission before you rely on it.
Filing dates are set by statute and computed from the rule rather than quoted from a past year. Confirm the current date with the assessor before you rely on it.
