2 Acre Sag Harbor Waterfront with Permits in Place Sag Harbor. Heroic views and stunning sunrises are just part of the prologue that introduces this nearly 2 acre property along 295’ of the pristine waters of Sag Harbor Bay as this fully permitted property joins the area elite in picturesque North Haven. Years of hard work and ingenuity by an enterprising seller will allow the new owner of this waterfront parcel to quickly begin construction of a 10,000 SF+/- manse. Designed by the renowned architectural firm of Zwirko & Ortmann, this beautiful home will anchor a gorgeous estate that will include covered and uncovered porches, patios, pool & spa, pool house and perhaps that coveted deep water dock. In addition, for modernists, we have renderings done by Blaze Mackoid that depict a stunning 7,000 SF, 8 bedroom waterfront retreat that could also fit beautifully on this elevated site.

Naturally if personal tastes dictate something different, much of the underlying permitting will hasten the realization of that new vision. With all the heavy lifting already done along with views of Sag Harbor, East Hampton’s Northwest Harbor and nearby Shelter Island, this rare opportunity deserves your attention today.

Quogue Oceanfront with Tennis Like You’re On Vacation Everyday Quogue. You remember the feeling. You’re on holiday on the coast of some Caribbean isle or on the cliff of a European town overlooking the Mediterranean. Each morning when your head leaves the pillow you know you are on vacation as the sunrise illuminates broad expanses of water dotted with boats and vistas of other shores. Much closer to home you can recreate that feeling each and every day when you own this 5 bedroom, 7 bath retreat poised along 100+ ft. of pristine Quogue beachfront with sweeping vistas over both the Atlantic Ocean and Shinnecock Bay. Masterfully built for exacting owners, this beautiful 6,000 SF+/- modern retreat features an open floor plan so that those cooking in the state-of-the-art Euro inspired kitchen can see all the activity past the dining area into the great room and out to the deck scanning the ocean. Peace and tranquility can be found in the separate den with fireplace overlooking the Har-Tru tennis court out to the bay. An expansive master wing includes luxurious bath with steam shower, generous walk in closet and views to the Atlantic through a wall of doors leading to the oceanview deck. Four additional bedrooms are spread throughout the lower level that includes a media room and nearby pool bath that will function as an integrated cabana. A two-car garage with another that was transformed into a gym completes the lower level. Outside 360° ocean and bay vistas abound from expansive patios surrounding the large heated Gunite pool with separate spa. A wooden walkway leads you over the dune, past a pair of benches, to 100+ feet of pristine sandy beach that seems to stretch endlessly in each direction. Head over to Dockers for cocktails or into Quogue for dinner, both so close.

But on clear evenings eat early as you might want to get back for some of the most beautiful sunsets anywhere, as the sun seems to disappear over the bay leaving the horizon a purplish haze. Best of all, you won’t need a passport, a pat down or a plane ticket. Just get in your car and head East. When you get there, you’ll know....and remember.See it all at myhamptonhomes.com/342929/ Exclusive. $9.5M WEB#342929

Cavett’s Cove, Historic 20 Acre Oceanfront with New Compelling Price Montauk. Envision land encompassing 20 private oceanfront acres offering both sunrises and sunsets. Next, imagine a dramatic cliff with a staircase down to a private shoreline stretching 900 feet along one of the most pristine soft, sandy beaches. Then, picture a compound anchored by a 7,000 +/- square foot Stanford White designed summer cottage with classic wrap around porch from where you can watch ships come and go past an iconic lighthouse. Dream of the beautiful pool that lies just out of sight down a winding path past flowering gardens under a canopy of shady trees. Conjure up an expansive pond, beautiful orchards, indigenous wildlife and miles of walking trails to enjoy it all. No, not the promo for some exotic vacation destination (or maybe it is). And not the location for the next Pirate movie (but it could be). Nor is it the secluded haunt of some mysterious mega-mogul (at least not currently). What is it exactly? Simply put, it is the most beautiful and compelling oceanfront property now available for sale in the Hamptons today.

Cavett’s Cove is located on the easternmost end of an enclave of seven homes designed by McKim, Mead & White and sited by Frederick Law Olmsted in the early 1880’s that became part of the Montauk Association. This cluster of homes for wealthy New Yorkers later became known as the “Seven Sisters.” This 20-acre estate, owned for some 40 years by legendary talk show host Dick Cavett, is home to an historic three-story residence with a finished lower level that was painstakingly rebuilt to mirror the original structure but with today’s amenities after a tragic fire destroyed it in the late 1990’s. Bordered to the east by nearly 200 acres of oceanside parkland along 2,200 ft of coastline, the estate offers a rare combination of history, natural beauty, privacy and a remarkable house from which to savor it all. Now back on the market after a brief hiatus with a new compelling price, Cavett’s Cove, although secluded, is just minutes away from restaurants, private airport, marinas, renowned golf courses and everything else that makes the very eastern tip of Long Island a world-class destination.

Montauk Sunsets and Possibilities Gary R. DePersia Licensed A s sociate Real Es t ate Broker m 516.380.0538 | gdp@corcor an.com

Montauk. Didn’t we just love the 80’s? The US Hockey Team kicked it off with the Miracle on Ice. Michael Jackson taught us how to Moonwalk and Cyndi Lauper just wanted to have fun. MTV gave us music videos 24/7 and the expansion of cable TV changed our lives forever. The Exxon Valdez coated the Alaskan shoreline, Chernobyl fouled the Russian skies and the IranContra’s had an affair. We did some Dirty Dancing, had some Risky Business, learned from the other Gecko that greed was good and didn’t have a clue that when the Terminator said he’d be back that he would return as the Governator. And in the middle of that seminal decade, a very edgy, 3-bedroom, 2,800 SF modern beach house was built on a breezy shy acre along 100’ of Lake Montauk looking west towards the sunset. Decades later that same residence awaits a new owner to ponder the possibilities. Ripe for renovation? Sure. But this superb waterfront development site with a Natural Resource Permit and approved existing septic for an already designed 3600 SF house and waterside spa offers a new owner the opportunity to create something new and exciting for this gorgeous waterfront acreage. Moor a boat just offshore, canoe, paddle board, go clamming or just kick back and enjoy the views and the sound of the water lapping against the sandy shoreline. And just as the 80’s didn’t last forever, neither will this property. With proximity to everything that makes Montauk a world-class destination. ponder the possibilities today.

David Adjaye, the home reflects an enhanced degree of cultural sensibility season. This property represents a special opportunity to live in one of the most beautiful locations to be found anywhere on the East End. This being our “Builders” issue, we spoke with several top builders in the Hamptons to get their take on current trends in new construction and renovation. The traditional Hamptons home is still popular, but in new construction, modern styles are now taking center stage, with a few architects in particular spearheading the movement. More homeowners are looking to create synergies between indoor and outdoor living spaces, with lots of glass providing for an easy transition. There is increased interest in lower level features like theatres, wine rooms, gyms and lap pools. The renovation market still centers around new baths and kitchens, along with improved outdoor

SPOTLIGHT HRES: What do builders think about the contemporary home trend that seems to be popping up in the Hamptons?

John Kean: Although we do not want to lose the character and integrity of the signature Hamptons style home, diversity

in architecture when well executed is exciting, especially for our design team. We like the idea of a new modern design that is fresh, clean and dynamic – with high tech, green attributes these unique, simply designed homes will never be confused with their outdated predecessors. We are finding that the open concept in the design of new construction is somewhat universal for our buyers as well. They are looking for an open, airy feeling with as much natural light as the design will allow.

John Kean Kean Development

HRES: What is the most important tip for homebuyers looking to take on a renovation project?

Robert Bakes: Particularly in the Hamptons, there is such a large number of companies available to undertake renovation work. It’s so important that clients find someone they feel really comfortable with. Cost is always a factor even in this rarefied atmosphere, notwithstanding, there is a value to true craftsmanship and an ability to take care of customers. Excellent work and excellent service does come at a premium of course, and it’s a fundamental challenge to balance the need for excellence with the ability to be cost effective. The kitchen is still the number one improvement in pretty much any market sector across the country.

Robert Bakes Bakes & Kropp

HRES: Are you finding more people are renovating homes or building new ones in the Hamptons?

Al & Mary Giaquinto: We think that people are more cautious about spending money on their property, and more careful about where they spend it. The homeowner isn’t sure their property will appreciate as it has in the past, and consequently are holding back. Increased regulation from stronger codes is increasing the cost of construction. The building department in providing you with the permit to construct will ask you to bring the ‘newly renovated’ home up to a standard that may cost more than anticipated. Common upgrades for renovations are larger master suites including increasing the bathroom’s size, features and storage, updated and enlarged kitchens and improved traffic flow for entertaining their extended families.

Al & Mary Giaquinto Plum Builders

HRES: Is the open concept trend still strong in new construction? If so, why?

Rich Perello: Yes, the open concept is still in. I think most of the homes in the Hamptons are vacation homes and are used primarily in the summer while people are on vacation with their families and guests. These open spaces create a much more casual (less formal) living space which lends itself to this type of living. A trend I have noticed in the Hamptons is the importance of creating outdoor spaces that can be integrated into the main living areas. Some of the ways we are accomplishing this is to use large multi-slide or bi-folding door units, which can be opened connecting the two spaces and creating one large living space between the interior and exterior spaces of the home.

Rich Perello Perello Design & Build

HRES: What other trends are popular in new construction in the Hamptons?

Jack Curto: A few years ago, the trend was transitional interiors that were very clean and white. Now, it’s leaning toward using more organic materials on the modern level. My latest development at 435 North Sea Mecox in Southampton overlooking the Long Spring Farm incorporated a California Modern interior. Black accents and wrought iron handrails have been popular this season, along with rift white for built-ins, paneled rooms and interior doors, and oversized glass windows to create a clean, modern look, capturing the Hamptons landscapes. Complete outdoor dining and entertaining areas and finished lower levels with a spa and steam room are always in demand, and now expected in new luxury Hamptons properties. The number one new sought-after amenity is the full-service kitchen for catering Jack Curto Curto & Curto Development

SPRING ESCAPE

FORTY-EIGHT HOURS AT THE NATIONAL CHERRY BLOSSOM FESTIVAL IN WASHINGTON, DC

BY LEILA JONES

f Washington, DC were a pedigreed dog, it would never take Best in Show. Apart from a few historic enclaves (i.e., Georgetown and Kalorama), the nation’s capital is pretty drab. Except, that is, during the four weeks in spring when the city’s three thousand cherry trees are in full flamboyant bloom, and the streets and tidal basin are bedecked with pink flowers. It’s the all-too-fleeting high point of spring, and it is eagerly anticipated not only by residents, but by the million

strong tree-fanciers who visit the nation’s capital in April. They come for the cherry blossoms and for the National Cherry Blossom Festival, which commemorates the 1912 gift of 2000 cherry trees from the Japanese government to the city of Washington, DC. Although the festival runs from March 20th to April 12th, the first weekend of April has an especially strong line-up of events. Here’s how to achieve cherry blossom nirvana without leaving the East Coast.
