On a less-travelled road in the Art Village section of Southampton, where William Merritt Chase held his famous summer painting school, this gracious five-bedroom home is a welcoming setting. Emanating with thoughtful and special details expressing the feeling of a more gracious time, while thoroughly modern in construction, providing all the amenities for 21st century living. Surrounded by 12-foot high hedges and lush beds of shrubs and flowers - boxwood, vitex, verbena and nepeta, roses and hydrangeas - and adjacent to preserved land, the property is private and beautiful. Enter from a stone front porch, with ample room for relaxing in your swinging bench, to living areas with wide plank wood flooring throughout. To the left of the entrance is the eat-in open kitchen with marble countertops and island, Wolf cooktop and Sub-Zero refrigerator. Glass doors open from a dining area to the front porch, perfect for enjoying a morning cup of coffee al fresco. In the living room is a gas fireplace and a wall of sliding glass doors opening to the patio and pool area. To the right of the front entrance find a bedroom and full bath with wood flooring and frameless glass-enclosed shower with glass tile flooring. Upstairs two bedrooms share a bath with frameless glass-enclosed shower. At the opposite side of the floor is the master suite with gas fireplace, walk-in closet and luxe bath with marble floor, double vanity and shower curb. The glass shower includes a marble bench, marble tile flooring and overhead and handheld sprays. The master bedroom overlooks the pool, patio and beautiful grounds. There is a second patio beyond the pool, with a true, artfully constructed dry stone wall. The finished lower level provides a living area, en-suite bedroom including a full bath with subway-tiled glass shower and honeycomb tile flooring; there is also a laundry room. Some of the home's especially noteworthy details include beautiful woodwork, a stained glass window in the front door, an espaliered (and fruiting) apple tree alongside the 1.5 car detached garage, and exquisite dry stone construction on the outside wall and bases of the front porch columns. Additional amenities include wiring for sound, geothermal heat, and an alarm system. Seconds to Southampton Village and a few minutes to ocean beaches, this home is close to everything yet feels a world away.
