Gorgeous waterfront home at GIN LANE, SOUTHAMPTON

Regarded by many as the finest oceanfront in all of the Hamptons, this iconic estate with links to architect Stanford White offers two extraordinary residences on more than four acres, with over 400 ft. of bulkhead beach front, gorgeous hedged lawns, two custom Gunite pools, and sunken all-weather tennis on Gin Lane. Security gates and hedging open to a wide gravel drive, with the main four-story residence rising majestically from its front parking court. The original residence was constructed in in 1892, the classic shingle-sided presides over rosa rugosa dunes that slope down to the wide sandy beach. The gathering rooms across the second level open across a series of decks and patios that all take in ocean breezes, and from which one can watch the ceaseless waves. The second wholly separate residence, built in 2001 by renowned architect and decorator Francois Cartroux, was conceived to reflect the design and proportions of the main house. Both homes are designed similarly, from dark polished wood floors, to white interiors with detailed moldings (original in the main house), bead boards, French doors, transom windows, and coffered ceilings. Both homes offer gyms and saunas. In addition, the second residence offers a home theater and billiards room. Ample parking, and separate staff areas.
