A Masterpiece of Modern Coastal Living on the North Fork of Long Island

September 2025

A four-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bath residence on the North Fork of Long Island is both a serene retreat and a bold architectural statement.  

 

Designed by acclaimed architects Barnes Coy and perched high on a 55-foot bluff in Cutchogue, overlooking the Long Island Sound, the home at 445 Glen Court is currently listed for $6,475,000. Douglas Elliman agent Kristy Naddell represents the listing. 

 

Expansive glass walls and cathedral ceilings frame endless water views and bathe the home in natural light. An open floor plan flows seamlessly from the chef’s kitchen through elegant living spaces, creating the perfect setting for both entertaining and quiet moments by the sea. Smart-home features and radiant floor heating add comfort and ease to the refined design. 

“It’s incredibly rare to find something this architecturally striking, this well-built, on the Sound, with that kind of privacy and direct beach access,” said Naddell. "You’ve got dramatic sunsets, gorgeous landscape lighting, private beach access and a true sense of escape.” 

 

Outside, a heated saltwater gunite pool, hot tub, and private beach access elevate the resort-like feel, while a 1,000-square-foot rooftop terrace offers one of the most spectacular sunset vantage points on the East End. The water-side pool and spa are another rarity, Naddell added. 

 

“That’s something you almost never see on properties this close to the bluff, where zoning usually makes that impossible,” she said. “The design was so thoughtfully executed, it unlocked potential for a waterside pool that is seldom realized." 

 

For all its sleek, modern architecture, Naddell added, “it’s actually a really cozy home!”  

 

“The textures, tones, and natural materials give it such warmth—it just feels good to be in,” she said. “And then there’s this fun, unexpected bonus space on the lower level: a London-style speakeasy with a bar, full bath, and hookah lounge. It’s great for entertaining, but if you’ve got kids, it could just as easily be an epic media room or next-level playroom. It’s that kind of flexibility that makes the house not just beautiful, but truly livable.”
