Magnificent North Haven Home

A true Shingle-Style home, influenced by Robert A.M. Stern, has been built in the village of North Haven. Located in one of the village's most desirable communities and just minutes from Sag Harbor and Shelter Island. This two story classic was built with every amenity to be the perfect family retreat. This classic example of the Shingle-Style is set high on a knoll behind the gates of West Banks, a private community on the westerly shores of North Haven. West Banks is the only actively gated community in the town of Southampton. The guard house and gates ensure privacy and security to this exclusive enclave. The community has an on-site caretaker, private marina, community tennis, and beach to complete the care free Hampton life-style. In describing the interior of the house, one notes the gracious floor plan, welcoming cathedral entrance hall, spacious living and dining room, keeping room, handsome paneling and molding, and five exquisitely styled fireplaces. The first floor also includes a gourmet eat-in kitchen with family-room area, pantry and laundry room, cabana for the pool, covered porch, and a superior master suite. There are six bedrooms, including a master suite and bath each with its own fireplace, and a second floor junior master with its own balcony and lavish bath. The home has a total of five full and two half baths. There is also a generous bonus room located off of the two bedroom, one bath, staff wing. French doors open onto a large mahogany covered porch and deck. A path from the porch leads to the brick patio surrounding the gunite pool. An attached three car garage includes hot and cold running water, and a vacuum port. Whether as a family retreat or as a home to entertain friends and guests, it would be hard to find a more gracious candidate than this stunning gem.
