The accident happened at about 4:20 a.m. on Round Swamp Road in Plainview.
The driver apparently took a turn too fast, veered off the road, careened onto a lawn and slammed into the house.
A passenger in the car was killed.
Three other people in the car suffered non-life-threatening injuries and are recovering at a local hospital.
Four people were inside the home at the time, a husband and wife and their two young children. None were injured.
The identity of the victim has not yet been released.
