Ultimate privacy can be found just five minutes from the heart of Sag Harbor Village at this handsome 4600+/- sq ft, 5-bedroom traditional shingled Hamptons home situated on a wonderfully open 1.38 acres. The approach, down a long driveway, sets the tone for what’s inside – spacious country living with high ceilings and room for everyone to spread out.
This is grand scale living with great flow in a surprisingly intimate home. An inviting front porch guides you in to a double-height foyer with a classical central staircase.
A front sitting room functions as a library/ TV den with 2 walls of built-ins and a gas fireplace, perfect for quiet reading in front of the bay window. The formal dining room is next to the kitchen.
At the rear of the home is a long Great Room with 2 sliders to the rear deck overlooking the pool. The open kitchen is always the heart of the home, and this one anchored by a professional Thermador 6 burner gas range and grill, 2 ovens, 2 dishwashers, an extra prep sink, 2 pantry closets and a casual dining area, terrific for holidays or any day at home with family and friends. The living room has a wood burning fireplace with a TV above it for cozy movie nights.
The first-floor bedroom can double as a home office and has a powder room next to it. At the rear of the home an oversized three-season room opens out to the mahogany deck with room for loungers and outdoor dining. There is a full pool bath and plenty of storage in the mudroom.
Upstairs the master suite has a gas fireplace and its own huge sun deck with hot tub overlooking the grounds. There is a generous guest suite and 2 guest bedrooms which share a jack-and-jill bath. The laundry room is located on this level.
The very sunny manicured yard is fully enclosed with a freeform heated pool, a second hot tub with room for 8, a firepit and an outdoor shower. Competitive sports enthusiasts will enjoy the basketball hoop and tennis wall.
The 600 sq ft bonus room above the 2-car garage can be finished for a very private home office or in-law suite. Even more space can be transformed in the lower level into a gym, movie room, wine room or anything else you can dream of.
The present owners have taken meticulous care of this move-in ready house and have enjoyed the A+ location in a peaceful neighborhood with beautiful traditional homes, wide streets and larger sized lots. With quick access to The Hamlet of Bridgehampton, ocean and bay beaches and Sag Harbor Village only a stone’s throw away this area can’t be beat. Year round the Village is bustling with restaurants, boutiques, gourmet markets, the cinema, various cultural events and activities.
