OCEANFRONT MAGNIFICENCE
This is a rare opportunity to acquire one of the East Coast's most prestigious properties. Originally built by Henry Ford II, this 44 acre oceanfront estate is located at a most stylish address in New York state's first English-settled village. Built in 1960, this colonnaded mansion is endowed with European elegance with the use of 18th century moldings, Venetian chandeliers and Italian marble fireplaces.
The grounds have nearly a quarter mile of ocean frontage, a tennis court and heated swimming pool. The expansive lawns and flower gardens combined with mature trees, ponds and pristine wetlands provide a private park-like setting. The rear facade of the 2 story main house, which is flanked by 2 graceful wings, faces south to dunes and the ocean. To one side is a staff/guest wing with several bedrooms, baths and a separate entrance. In the east wing is the library and in the west wing is a 20x28 ft. kitchen with 3 dishwashers and 4 refrigerators.
From the large entrance gallery, which is decorated with panels painted by an Italian artist, rises a magnificent staircase. The 48 ft. living room features antique moldings, a French parquet floor, doors opening to the terrace and 2 fireplaces. On the second floor are 2 master bedrooms with dressing rooms and baths, 3 additional bedrooms and 2 baths.
Located in the heart of the Hamptons, this estate is within minutes of the train and Jitney bus service to Manhattan and 20 minutes from the East Hampton airport. Southampton Village is famous for its designer boutiques, art galleries and fine restaurants. Recreational activities abound at nearby golf, tennis and sailing clubs and riding stables.
