One of Montauk’s iconic “Seven Sisters” is back on the market at a new lower price. The historic home on Deforest Road in the Hamptons is now available for $11. 95 million.
In 2016, the list value of the historic 3,800-square-foot, 2. 3-acre apartment was $18. 5 million. Over the years, value has been reduced 4 times, to inspire a customer to step forward. a minimum value of 35% of the maximum value requested, and the directory agent believes that the number is now fair.
“I think it’s going to be done,” says the agent, Rylan Jacka.
The space of four bedrooms and 3. 5 bathrooms built in the 1880s as a component of a planned summer community. Earth Baron Arthur Benson and architect Stanford White designed seven cabins, each with a cliff-side location near the eastern end of Long Island.
Frederick Law Olmsted, the outstanding landscape architect, chose the sites of the spaces based on his views. Jacka says this space offers the most productive views.
“It’s an augmented site, so you have 360-degree views. To the south, it has a 180-degree view of the ocean,” he says. “Behind you, to the north, you can see the total bay, and everything is reserved for you. So in the summer, there are all kinds of birds everywhere. It’s an awesome place. “
The seven houses are built to Shingle’s liking and are all indexed on the National Register of Historic Places.
“When you enter Montauk and pass by the hill, you see those seven coming out of the hills. It’s an iconic view,” Jacka says.
The current owner has owned the assets since 2012 and has overseen primary restores.
The result is a period house with lots of architectural details, original hardwood floors, beautiful windows and plenty of outdoor space.
“The balconies on the second floor of the two master bedrooms are spectacular,” Jacka says. “It looks like an old house, but it’s set to enjoy the sea view, so you come in and see the sea. “
If a customer wants to make some changes, there are architectural plans to build a pool.
Although the exterior of the space has remained the same over the decades, the kitchen is original.
“None of the houses had a kitchen, as they all went to the main pavilion. They would meet, eat and socialize in the clubhouse, and then move on home, which was just for sleeping,” Jacka says. added after the fact, so it’s not a big, huge kitchen open to the family room circle, as other people are building today.
Still, it’s a lovely domain with a giant island, high-end appliances and a seating area overlooking the sea.
All rooms have beautiful perspectives and are relatively undeniable in terms of design and décor. For more heat, there are a total of six fireplaces in the house.
About a hundred acres of nature reserve surround the property, so Jacka says the space will remain personal and secluded, something a discreet customer will appreciate.
“[It will be] someone who appreciates architecture of ancient importance, and is unique in his personal life. Montauk doesn’t have too many places where you can be absolutely away from any neighbor, and you do. “
