Upon turning into the crescent stone driveway, this grande dame of 47 Homans Avenue in the sought-after hamlet of Quiogue, amidst almost 2 acres of flourishing gardens and a stretch of green grass to the blue of Quantuck Bay, greets her admirer. Built at the turn of the 20th century by George Haven Putnam, eldest son of famed book publisher George P. Putnam, this 8 bedroom, 8.5 bathroom Colonial Revival is adorned with diamond-pane sash, unique oval, and her signature square windows, while crowned with a distinctive widow's walk. Upon entering, the double-height foyer and living room exude old-world charm with a wood-burning fireplace framed by period built-ins and picture windows to drink in the water views. The updated and oversized kitchen, with seating for 6 at the breakfast bar, offers modern amenities of a 6-burner gas range and Sub-zero refrigerator set into custom cabinetry. With a commanding view of the bay, the three-seasons room provides ample space for entertainment and enjoyment of the outdoor panorama. A generous junior master suite, along with a separate staff bedroom and bathroom, complete the first floor. Upstairs, the gracious master suite with Juliet balcony overlooks Dune Road, while two additional guest suites with a shared mahogany deck, provide sunset vistas across Quantuck Bay. A fourth guest suite and two bedrooms with a shared bath complete the 2nd floor. With +/- 229' of bay frontage, all-weather tennis court with supplementary basketball hoop, and bayside heated gunite pool, this impressive waterfront compound is the quintessential Hamptons escape!
