A charming cedar shake exterior envelops this turn-of-the-century Southampton, NY, home in the heart of the art village. “It’s an idyllic retreat that blends old world charms and modern conveniences,” says Hamptons Luxury Lifestyle Broker Adam Hofer of Douglas Elliman in Southampton.
Enter the gates to a circular driveway leading up to the manicured entrance. White oak flooring and original millwork frame the wide entry hall with French doors to the living room. “This home is perfect, whether you’re hosting a soirée in the living room or preparing a family dinner in the beautiful and spacious chef’s kitchen,” says Hofer.
Nestled within the prestigious Art Village enclave, traditional architecture and meticulous craftsmanship give a sense of refinement to the carefully preserved home, which has undergone recent renovations to bring modern conveniences and functionality to the space.
A serene home office with soft natural light and lots of built-in bookshelves makes working remotely convenient, while five bedrooms, all with en suite bathrooms, provide luxurious accommodations for family and friends on weekends.
In the kitchen top-of-the-line appliances including a Wolf range with double ovens and a Sub-Zero refrigerator, provide all the tools for the home chef. A large island in ocean blue with white quartz countertop is the focal point of the room and perfect for hosting or meal prep. It looks out to the living room, which has a large fireplace original to the home and walks out to a spacious covered porch.
A few steps from the porch, you can bask in the summer sun by the heated gunite pool with a spa, or play lawn games on the expansive, level yard. There’s ample space for a pool house and tennis courts, should you wish to add them.
The beach, along with the village’s galleries and restaurants, are just a bike ride away. “The property is obviously great for anyone who loves an older, soulful home, but it’s also a great opportunity to get a house and property this size so close to the beach and village at this price, so there’s real value, too,” says Hofer, adding that the “charm and soul” of traditional Hamptons architecture “can’t always be duplicated in a beachy modern home.”
