Set back on 2.5 meticulously landscaped acres in one of Quogue’s most desirable neighborhoods and completely renovated in 2018, this estate promises timeless character and unparalleled proximity to local amenities. Encompassing 11,000 SF+/- of painstakingly restored living space, this stately turn-of-the-century “Hamptons Cottage” offers 8 spacious bedrooms, 9 full and 3 half bathrooms, an attached 3-car garage, covered terraces, a heated gunite pool with spa, and pool house with bar seating ideal for outdoor entertaining, all bordered by ample lawnspace.

This remarkable haven was originally designed in 1903 by famed architect George Skidmore as a private retreat located just three quarters of a mile from the glistening blue waters of the Atlantic. Now every detail has been renovated to honor the past while ensuring all the essential modern conveniences like high-end kitchen appliances, modern lighting, and a sound system. And while the serene brick patios and private grounds might tempt you to stay poolside, Quogue Beach Club and Quogue Surf Club are less than five minutes down the road.

Upon entering the space, you’re treated to three levels of Golden Age elegance modernized by a crisp white color scheme, dark wood floors, and gleaming spa-like bathrooms. Original diamond pane windows flood both formal and open living spaces with light. A grand entry with sitting area leads to the large sunroom, study/den, and formal dining room. Read a book or entertain guests in the two-story great room with floor-to-ceiling windows and bookcases. Prepare a meal in the spacious kitchen—with adjoining butler's pantry and wine cellar—where a brick fireplace warms a sitting area and a wall of windows graces the breakfast nook with light and garden views. Original leaded stained glass windows illuminate the grand sweeping staircase that leads to the home’s second floor, where 5 en-suite bedrooms join a stunning master suite with private deck overlooking the grounds. On the third level, two dormered en-suite guest rooms share a common recreation space.

Arriving via the private U-shaped driveway you’re immediately greeted by an impressive shingle-style home with traditional gambrel rooflines and tasteful landscaping. Around back, the home’s relaxing outdoor spaces will transport you to a time when afternoon tea on the large covered deck blends easily into summer evenings on the screened porch. Just off the great room, French doors lead to a large slate patio where an original outdoor fireplace presides over after-dinner conversations under the stars. From there, step down to a lovely brick patio that gives way to an expansive private lawn leading the way to the pool terrace. Sunbathe in privacy by the 20’ x 42’ heated gunite pool, take a restorative swim or soak in the submerged spa, or gather with company around the bar at the fully-equipped pool house as the setting sun filters through the surrounding oak trees that shelter this ideal entertaining area.

Situated less than a mile from Quogue Beach, this gorgeous home is the perfect starting point for coastal adventures or exploring the quiet streets of this peaceful neighborhood by bicycle. Shinnecock Yacht Club and neighboring golf course at Quogue Field Club are also less than a mile from your front door.
