For the first time in 60 years, one of Sag Harbor Village’s most historic homes, the c. 1865 Captain John Phillips House, is on the market for $13.75 million. And it looks lovelier than ever.
Set on a private, half-acre corner lot at 92 Bay Street, the shingled six-bedroom, seven-bath residence was carefully reimagined by architect Ricardo Romo-Leroux, who thoughtfully preserved the home’s 19th-century character while expanding the floor plan and incorporating handcrafted finishes, including Venetian plaster, limewashed walls and custom millwork throughout.
A center hallway opens onto the main level’s generous entertaining spaces, including a sunroom with wet bar and a stylish eat-in chef’s kitchen outfitted with exposed timber beams, custom cabinetry, oversized island and a La Cornue range. Three en-suite bedrooms share the top floor; the lower level, which opens to the backyard, includes two guest suites, a wine cellar, media room and a sybaritic wellness center with gym, sauna, steam shower and cold plunge. Out back, clipped boxwood hedges, crepe myrtles and mature shade trees frame the shingled, one-car garage as well as the dining terrace, fire pit and heated gunite pool and cabana, creating a secluded garden retreat mere steps from the marina, Havens Beach and Main Street.
“What makes 92 Bay so special is that the renovation has preserved the character of the original house while bringing it completely up to date,” says listing agent Dana Trotter of The Agency. “The quality of the craftsmanship and attention to detail is exceptional, and the corner setting gives you a sense of privacy and space that’s hard to find in the heart of Sag Harbor Village.”
