House proud
Custom built in 2022, but designed to look as though it’s been part of the classic Hamptons landscape, this is offered by its original owners as a turnkey home in pristine condition with deeded access to a private beach on the Peconic Bay. The listing is represented by Peter Halpin and Amanda Lin of Douglas Elliman’s Halpin-Lin team. Large, airy and filled with natural light with a nod to a genteel time, Halpin calls the home “an entertainment paradise.”
What’s the plan?
The first floor features the common rooms in a generous open layout of nearly 800 square feet for the living and dining areas. A 214-square-foot room is in current use as an office, but easily converted to an ensuite bedroom, a flexible and popular option Halpin says, for families with aging parents or even, he says, “an older demographic that is migrating to the North Fork.”
“This amenity is in high demand and is something that helps buyers pull the trigger,” he says.
The second floor features a junior primary of nearly 250 square feet and a larger primary bedroom suite: 257 for the main bedroom with its two closets, a nearly 200-square-foot ante room and an oversized bathroom with double vanities, a standing tub and separate shower. Two additional bedrooms share a hallway bathroom. A large hallway provides separation from the three-bedroom wing and the primary suite.
The home features oak hardwood floors throughout. The full-sized basement is unfinished and is clean slate ready for customization says Halpin.
What’s cooking?
The 338-square-foot chef’s kitchen is equipped with appliances by Wolf, Sub-Zero and Thermador, featuring dual dishwashers and a beverage cooler. The on-trend-blue oversize center island offers a convenience sink, ample storage, is topped with white quartzite and seats four comfortably. Sliding doors lead to a covered dining area overlooking the pool.
What else?
There is ample storage through the house on both floors. The grounds include a gardening shed. Halpin says “given the size of the property, it has the scale and scope to add an accessory dwelling” with proper permitting— also noting ADUs are “in high demand on the North Fork and in the Hamptons for people looking to create a family compound.”

Agent’s callout
“This is off the beaten path while being within arm’s reach in everything the North Fork has to offer,” says Halpin. “A lot of buyers don’t want to be in the hustle bustle 24/7, and this home speaks to those who want tranquility while having access to amenities with very little effort.” With a recent price adjustment, he says, “This is a phenomenal opportunity at this price point.”
