House proud
This west-facing Southold home sits on just shy of an acre on Town Creek, and has been designed for entertaining as well as affording plenty of space and separation in a variety of flexible rooms. Built and finished with high-quality materials, Deborah Pirro, who is listing the property for Daniel Gale Sotheby’s International Realty, says the construction is “impeccable”— from the high-design floating staircase right down to the frame. The house is packed with amenities, and yet, she says, “You have a wonderfully laid-back vibe where you can bring your toothbrush and swimsuit and be ready to go.”
What’s the plan?
“I love the flow of the house,” Pirro says, noting the numerous opportunities the design offers for entertaining, solo relaxing and working from home.
The first floor features three flexible living rooms, respectively, offering 192, 225 and 273 square feet. The two larger are accessed from the large double-height entry foyer and the third is a more casual family room entered through the open-format kitchen/dining room. The great room features a gas fireplace and a wall of windows overlooking the water, with doors providing access to the bluestone covered patio. Also on this floor is a 12.8 x 12.1-foot office with entry from the kitchen/family room. On the other side of the foyer is a 175-square-foot junior primary bedroom suite.
The upper level includes four bedrooms, one of which is the large primary suite with an enclosed extra room that can be a sitting area or office, and a balcony. The large bathroom includes an oversized shower and a soaking tub with water views out the window. One of the other bedrooms is ensuite and the other two have a Jack-and-Jill format with a shared bathroom. There is nearly 115 square feet of flexible loft space. Pirro says the 2,000-square-foot plumbed, unfinished walkout basement is a “blank slate for someone,” with a bluestone patio and with egresses.
What’s cooking?
The kitchen features ceiling-high cabinetry, marble countertops and a porcelain inlay backsplash, Thermador appliances, including an induction cooktop and a wall of refrigeration with smart technology, and a full-height wine/beverage cooler. The center island seats four and includes a sink and double dishwashers. There’s a butler’s pantry in the hallway.
What else?
The house is state-of-the art energy efficient. With the exception of the main-floor powder room, all the bathrooms have radiant-heat flooring. The garage has quality finishes: galvanized steel walls and an epoxy floor. The property has been permit-approved for an in-ground swimming pool.
One cool thing
There is a 6 x 20-foot private deep water dock with a 82-foot Trex catwalk.
Agent’s callout
“It’s an incredible location, down the road from the beach club, with west-facing views and sublime sunsets,” Pirro says. “It’s a quintessential North Fork chill vibe, where you know your neighbors … it’s like the way we grew up.”
Location, location, location
The home is .7 miles from the center of Southold village and .3 miles from Founder’s Landing Park. Of nearby interest are the 1857 Horton Point Lighthouse, McCabe’s Beach and the Arshamomaque Pond Preserve.
