Setauket Meadows is a thoughtfully designed 55+ private retirement condominium community located in East Setauket on Long Island’s North Shore. The community consists of 150 residences across 32 individual buildings, set on 29 beautifully landscaped acres, offering a peaceful, low-density environment that blends privacy with an active lifestyle.
Designated as an Over-55 Private Retirement Community (PRC), Setauket Meadows benefits from significantly reduced property taxes compared to similarly sized single-family homes—an important financial advantage for homeowners planning long-term residence.

The Belle Terre and Poquot models are especially sought after, offering first-floor primary bedroom suites and dramatic 20-foot vaulted ceilings in the living and dining areas, creating an open and light-filled living space. These architectural designs received industry recognition and awards at the time of development.
Residents enjoy access to an expansive clubhouse featuring:
Heated indoor swimming pool
Fitness center

Outdoor amenities include a heated pool with patio, tennis and pickleball courts, putting green, bocce ball court, and shuffleboard, supporting both recreation and social connection.
Setauket Meadows is known for its balanced lifestyle, offering residents the option to engage in a robust calendar of social events or enjoy quiet, independent living. Activities are organized by an active resident-led social committee, allowing homeowners to choose their preferred level of involvement.
The community is overseen by a five-member volunteer Board of Directors, elected by residents, in partnership with a professional property management company. The result is a community that is exceptionally well-maintained, with clear attention to detail throughout the grounds and common areas.
