The Carriage House - Shelter Island, New York

THE CARRIAGE HOUSE S H E LT E R I S L A N D, N E W YO R K

RESIDENCE Shelter Island is an oasis of tranquility, nestled between the North and South Forks on Long Island’s East End. Accessible via ferry, private boat or sea plane, one third of the 12.5-square-mile Island is a protected nature preserve. A quaint village includes local shops, art galleries, restaurants and attractive private homes surrounded by wetlands, beaches, forests, walking trails, golf courses and marinas.

The Carriage House is situated just a short ride from the North Ferry on 1.7 waterfront acres with 600 feet of private beach, a 168-foot deep-water dock and deeded mooring in Dering Harbor. Tall trees and evergreens provide privacy for the home’s sandy beach, grassy yard, and heated inground pool and deck, and a spacious gravel driveway offers ample parking.

Built in 1888 as the carriage house of a grand hotel, this 6-bedroom residence with 6 full and 4 half baths was reconstructed in 2010 in a nautical, sundrenched theme.

With 9,230 square feet of living space, the home includes a fully equipped wet bar, a home theater with surround sound and leather recliners for eight, five fireplaces, a handsome den or library and a 720-bottle wine cellar.

E F F O R T L E S S E N T E R TA I N I N G The round grand foyer features a gracefully curved imperial staircase with handcrafted banister and a soaring view to the windowed cupola atop the home. The first floor includes two en suite bedrooms, one with a large fireplace and doors to the deck and pool.

The expansive chef’s kitchen features granite counters, island and peninsula, stainless GE Monogram appliances, wine refrigerator and sun-drenched dining area. A remarkable cambered timber beam evokes thoughts of a ship’s grand mast, creating an impressive arch to the large living room beyond with its fireplace, walls of windows and a panoramic view of the water. Glass doors open onto the sensational wrap-around deck, pool, yard and private beach.

A handsome den/library with fireplace also opens onto the deck. The stunning, nautical-themed wet bar is complete with triple stainless sink, beverage refrigerator, ice machine and glass chiller, accented by custom mirror and millwork. The bar features spectacular water views, a gorgeous floor of teak and holly, an authentic hatch that leads via a nautical ladder to the stunning wine cellar directly below, and powder room.
