If you’d prefer your Hamptons house to be a beachy, European-style refuge rather than an over-the-top decorator showcase, this Sag Harbor Village home fits the bill. Renovated and expanded by AD100 designer Neal Beckstedt, the 1890s home has added modern amenities to a beautiful island refuge with minimalist interiors and historic materials that reflect its history. Asking $4,950,000, the house is surrounded by patios, manicured gardens, and a heated gunite pool.
The home’s original exterior and interior architecture were painstakingly preserved: Cedar siding wraps the exterior, topped by a cedar shake roof; inside, you’ll find wide-plank pine floors, original windows and glass panels, and antique ceiling beams.
Luxurious design touches like acid-washed marble floors, brass plumbing fixtures, and a hand-hammered copper alloy bathtub have been added as accents.
On the home’s main level, a sun-filled great room accommodates seating and dining. A first-floor bedroom/library with an en-suite bath has linen-clad walls.
The kitchen is modern in its functionality, with a charming Parisian vibe. An AGA stove anchors maple wood countertops, a custom zinc basin, and custom pine cabinetry. A beverage nook offers an ice maker and freezer for easy entertaining. A separate breakfast room overlooks the garden.
Upstairs, the home’s primary suite has a vaulted, beamed ceiling and a marble-accented en-suite bath. Also upstairs are a third bedroom and a full bath.
The surrounding grounds have been spared no attention: Lush landscaping includes multiple spaces for dining, relaxing, and strolling.
Separate outdoor areas include a dining terrace, a pergola-covered sitting area, a verdant lawn, and a heated gunite pool with a stone surround. Trees, boxwoods, and flowers surround all for a private sanctuary appeal.
