For those who dream of the classic Hamptons home outfitted in shingles and lush with native flora, this Amagansett spot offers all that and more. Featured in several publications and designed by architect James D’Auria, the expansive home is a dream summer retreat. And, as one would expect in the East End, it’s priced that way. The current owners are looking to sell, and are asking almost $11 million for the property.
Perched next to the Deborah Ann Light Preserve, almost 200 acres of land leased out to local farmers, the property’s beautiful scenery almost rivals the home itself. Two acres of rolling greens, long grasses, hydrangeas and other blooms, and tall trees create a private setting where anyone can feel worlds away from stress.
When it comes to the home itself, a new owner will gain 4,800 square feet of living space for sumptuous Hamptons hosting. The interior is bright and airy, especially the great room with floor-to-ceiling windows. The design by James D’Auria revolved around creating great open spaces, and the sellers have maintained his vision. An adjacent kitchen and dining room are modern and updated, anchored by a central island for easy entertaining. The first floor is mainly for entertaining, but holds one of the guest bedrooms. The primary suite and another three additional bedrooms sit on the second floor.
It wouldn’t be a home in the Hamptons without ample outdoor living areas, and this home is ready for all your alfresco lounging. A stunning pool and nearby spa sit around a beautiful patio. Further down the property is a fire pit, set on the flat lawn and looking like an elegant campfire.
Natascha Tillmans of Sotheby’s International Realty holds the listing.
