While New York City deserves plenty of design attention, it’s widely known that Long Island, the Gold Coast, and the Hamptons hold many of the state’s most fabulous residences. And, in these picturesque coastal areas, it’s all about the views. Many times, homeowners and design teams there craft residences with a sharp focus on framing breathtaking landscapes and emphasizing indoor-outdoor living. You can’t do this without high-quality, elegant windows and doors, which is where North Shore Window comes in.
For over 25 years, this high-end local business has been a trusted resource for premium window and door solutions for the most discerning homeowners, architects, designers, and builders. Their luxury product offerings and close relationships with leading brands—such as Marvin, Alvio, Loewen, Euroline Steel and Select Door—along with their white-glove service easily meets the architectural demands and refined tastes of the East End.
From large-scale new builds to historic renovations, North Shore Window brings precision and deep knowledge to each project. Here are 5 homes where their expertise shines, having helped top design professionals execute their visions.
1. A Shingle-Style Stunner in Quogue, NY
Products Featured: Marvin Ultimate windows and doors.
Client Goals: The client was adamant about the overall flow and feeling throughout the home. They wanted to bring the outside in while providing space and privacy for each bedroom suite so visitors can bask in serenity.
North Shore Window quote: “This special project was a gift to be a part of, located in Quogue nestled in the Bay of Quantuck overlooking Dune Road. The Marvin Ultimate line was a great compliment to the design and build. With the expansive views and the very traditional intent, we wanted to make sure we enhanced the residence’s sophisticated Hamptons spirit. The product chosen for this home was able to keep the classic lines and traditional features very pronounced throughout each room.”

2. An Architect’s Own Abode in Orient Point, NY
Products Featured: Loewen French doors, casements, awnings, and picture windows (sash set).
Client Goals: Bill Ryall of Ryall Sheridan Carroll Architects brought in North Shore Window to replace the original windows and doors on his treasured North Fork home, which were severely failing. He wanted an all-wood, narrow frame product. It was important to reinvent the original wood look and stay clear of popular, new aluminum-clad products.
North Shore Window quote:“Loewen was used for their superior Douglas Fir construction and narrow site lines to maximize and sustain the lush, green views for years to come. Loewen windows fit the structure’s warmth and design perfectly. Since the new units were installed, the client has experienced a much quieter home as well. The loud winds off the water and farm fields are no longer, and we hear his cats are loving the updates, too.”

3. An Elegant Family Getaway in Westhampton Beach, NY
Products Featured: Marvin windows and doors, Centor screens.
Client Goals: The client’s main objective was to create a special beach house experience they could cherish with loved ones for years to come.
North Shore Window quote: “This new build with expansive views of the Quantuck Bay and Dune Road is truly magical. The clients have a large family and tons of guests arriving throughout the season, so we wanted to make sure everyone’s needs were met. We used lift and slide/multi slides to provide each guest with incredible waterfront vistas and indoor-outdoor living. The Marvin products matched with the Centor screens is a wonderful combination. People can slide open walls of glass and while keeping the screens closed to enjoy the sea breeze or evening sunsets from the interiors.”

4. A Sleek New Build in Kings Point, NY
Products Featured: Alvio windows and doors.
Client Goals: The primary goal was to use as much glass as possible. As you walk through the house each and every room has a feeling of being immersed in the outdoors.
North Shore Window quote: “This project was a ground-up build for a prestigious client in the Kings point area. We were tasked with providing oversized glass and minimal sight lines. Truly, the design was built around the 10’ x 10’ windows. The Alvio products we supplied are a main focal point of the home and appreciated in each room.”
Design Professionals: Bluesky Development
5. A Splendid and Sturdy Haven in Long Beach, NY
Products Featured: Loewen windows and doors.
Client Goals: The clients wanted to purchase beautiful windows that would stand the test to time. Their home sits within walking distance to the ocean, which is a coveted but harsh environment that demands strong materials.
North Shore Window quote: “At this newly designed project in the heart of Atlantic Beach, the ocean views are the star. Narrow profile Loewen units were used to bring in as much of the scenery as possible. To foster a transitional coastal feel, the interiors showcase white oak windows and doors, while the exterior is aluminum clad and on-trend. Known for its design impact, this Loewen window and door package provides a high level of luxury and a polished look inside and out.”
