Welcome to Wainscott!
This rare offering provides what discerning guests truly seek: the quintessential Hamptons experience. A 1.5-acre beach compound—former residence of one of Wainscott's founding farmers—stands apart from the sea of modern builds. Set against unobstructed farmland vistas, this classic shingle-style retreat blends storied craftsmanship with modern comforts. The main house and guest cottage, spanning 3,500 square feet, offer 5 bedrooms and sleep 14 (with two pull-out couches), perfect for families seeking an authentic coastal escape.
HERITAGE MEETS MODERN ELEGANCE
Our careful stewardship of this historic compound honors its agricultural roots while weaving in thoughtful modern elements. Renovated with reclaimed farm floorboards, Provence stone floors, stained white oak ceilings, and exposed beams, the property exudes storied charm.
The original structural bones remain intact, now enhanced with three expansive decks featuring designer outdoor furniture, a 2024 Hot Tub Jacuzzi, indoor and outdoor fireplaces, state-of-the-art appliances, and Sonos indoor/outdoor surround sound. Premium bedding, towels, and flatware ensure effortless luxury throughout.
Families and dog owners will appreciate our childproofing system throughout (including pool fence with safety latches and a fully enclosed courtyard separating the driveway from main grounds)—thoughtful safety features integrated without compromising the home's historic character.
