Miraculously, no one was seriously hurt.

Estefany DeJesus, 30, was speeding southbound on Birchgrove Drive when she lost control of her silver SUV, with it jumping the curb and crashing into a home on Nostrand Avenue shortly after 2 a.m., the Suffolk County Police Department said in a press release.

Photos from the scene show first responders examining the wreckage, with the front half of the vehicle inside the house and the back half sticking out with the rear wheels above the ground.

Police said no one inside the house was injured, while DeJesus was taken to South Shore University Hospital for evaluation — and facing charges of driving while intoxicated.

DeJesus of Central Islip was awaiting arraignment in First District Court on Sunday.
