Many families, both prominent and out of the spotlight, have cherished Hamptons getaways for summer fun. And, that includes the family of Emmy award-winning Drea de Matteo, best known for starring in The Sopranos. The celeb’s parents built this charming waterfront East Hampton house in 1992, just before she hit her stride as a famous actress. It was their summer home until they passed it on to the current seller, interior designer Whitney Noelle, last spring.
After a major renovation under Noelle’s skilled eye, the 3,677-square-foot pad at 26 Three Mile Harbor is freshened up and for sale. It beckons buyers with Calacatta stone in the kitchen, a Carrara marble fireplace and 14 French doors in the living room, and airy elegance as far as the eye can see. But, don’t overlook the $5.995 million price tag.
Though the open, coastal-chic main rooms entice, the home’s five bedrooms are where you find total tranquility. There are first and second-floor primary suites, each offering show-stopping water vistas, of course. Another second-floor guest sanctuary leads out to a vast deck while two more bedrooms share a balcony perched above the pool. While the home’s calming color palette of blues and grays and harbor views keep you pretty satisfied inside, there’s nothing like swimming off your own private dock to really soak up the waterfront lifestyle.
A home with few owners, famous ties, and many designer finishes could equal immense attention on the Hampton market. Dawn Neway, Diana Neway, and Marissa Simone of Douglas Elliman hold the listing.
