Ninety-three-year-old Pulitzer Prize-winning editorial cartoonist and Village Voice veteran Jules Feiffer and his wife, JZ Holden, are listing their Shelter Island home for $1.2 million.

Feiffer — who is also the illustrator of Gimme’s favorite childhood book, “The Phantom Tollbooth” moved to Shelter Island full time in 2017. 

The charming, shingle-style traditional home at 5 Emerson Lane, built in 2016, sits on just over half an acre.

It features three bedrooms, two baths, wood floors, a fireplace and serene views, as it borders 45 acres of preserved land.

There’s also a water-filtration system, a patio, and room for a pool.
