New Construction

The function of this home was for weekend visits by three adult children and at other times for large formal gatherings, extending from the interior of the house to the grounds.

After locally winning the US Open Golf Tournament one year my client and his wife decided to establish an additional substantial base in this Village as well as their Floridian home. This more relaxed Northern home version was required for many family and friends casual visits.

 
 

Exterior & Grounds

The exterior boasts a traditional Southampton Village wood-shingle Gambrel design, fitting in with the local aesthetic. They bought a rather large parcel with a cedar tree grove that were all transplanted to the perimeter edge to form a green screen from the three surrounding roads. They wanted a more established traditional house design with a long inviting entry porch with sitting and potted plants.

Diane Sjoholm was brought in to design the master plan for the grounds and specify all the landscape and lawn material. She selected very large mature specimen focal point trees. Many covered and non-covered brick patio and wood deck options were created off the kitchen, dining, living and pool.

Interior

To support the larger events, professional service would be called onsite and the home was designed for them to be “hidden” from view.

Two laundries, a wine cellar, exercise room, golf equipment storage and office spaces were designed for additional enjoyment and comfort. All master, children’s and guest areas were all visually and acoustically isolated.
