This owner-built house was designed for versatile use and a connection to the land. There are a total of four bedrooms and three bathrooms. Two bedrooms on the second floor have direct access to a private deck. The master bedroom has an excellent water view of the bay between Sag Harbor and Shelter Island. The first-floor bedroom shares a sound-proofed wall with the dining room. The Accessory Suite has a private entrance, bathroom and legal second kitchen. The detached two-story, 2.5 car garage is suitable for a workshop, yoga studio or potential guest house. The house and garage were designed to fit into the gently sloping site. All entrances are close to grade level, which offers a natural connection to the woodland garden. The front porch acts as a fertile connection to the wealth of trees in the garden or our neighbors walking to the beach. 'The old-time deciduous trees of Oak, Black Cherry, Hickory and Ash have welcomed 'the new trees on the block'--White Pine, Cryptomeria, Japanese Maple and Dawn Redwood.
The first floor suite is a legal accessory apartment that can be used privately, or as a private office for professional services, or an income-apartment for a year-round resident. It has a private entrance at grade level. The property is magnificent and there is ample room to build a pool.
It is for good reason that this community is called 'Sunset Shores'. Two hundred steps from the front door will take you to the beach on Peconic Bay and sunsets that will inspire. At the beach you can swim, launch your boat, or row out to your boat moored on the bay. A two-minute drive will take you to the Morton Wildlife Refuge which offers a woodland trail and a sandy beach. In around the same time you can drive to Trout Pond, renowned among locals as one of the best places to swim. You are located an equal distance between Sag Harbor, Southampton and Bridgehampton and their marinas, public golf courses, ocean beaches, fine restaurants, farm stands and nightlife. Whether it is corn-on-the-cob picked in the morning, or salt-rimmed Margaritas at night, this bounty can be yours at Sunset Shores.
