South of the highway between Water Mill's village green and Mecox Bay, this extraordinary home, built in the 19th century, has been thoughtfully and beautifully restored and expanded to seamlessly integrate the original home with a new addition that doubles its size. Careful consideration of every detail has resulted in a perfect synthesis of old and new. Original doors, latches and other details have been preserved and restored, with new details chosen to echo the spirit of the originals. The front door is now positioned at the junction of the old and new sections of the residence with the original front door serving as a side entrance. There are six wood-burning fireplaces throughout the home. Wide plank wood flooring that is original in the historic part of the home is matched in color and width in the newer addition. A formal dining room sits past the front entrance and the library at the front of the home includes a fireplace. A winding staircase ascends to the upper floors of the original home where two second floor bedrooms both have fireplaces. The third floor includes two more bedrooms, one with a walk-in closet and its original door. In the newer addition, the master suite has a walk-in closet, fireplace, beautiful bath with marble-topped vanity, soaking tub and shower. It also boasts a spacious private roof deck. An additional guest suite includes a sitting area. The downstairs living room with fireplace has French doors to a patio overlooking the pool and another door to a delightful screened porch. The chef's kitchen features a Garland commercial range and elegant granite countertops. The breakfast room has views of the pool and includes a walk-in pantry. The first floor also has two powder rooms. The finished lower level consists of a media lounge, custom climate-controlled wine cellar and a wall of storage closets. Above the detached garage there is a guest apartment with a bedroom, full bath and kitchen. Outdoors enjoy the heated pool in the verdant, peaceful grounds.
