Designed by Roz Young for family living, this home takes full advantage of the benefits of one acre of wooded solitude. I have edited feature films in the studio when the house has been full of guests. And there always seems to be a place you can go to get away from the public areas so you can relax. But if you're in a social mood, the wide open living area with soaring 17 foot cathedral ceiling with wood beam details gives you the opportunity to bring everyone together in one large space without ever feeling cramped. The upper deck dining area will be where all summer meals are served. And though the house is equipped with central air, rarely will you need it as it gets very comfortable at night. We do use it during the day. And the air keeps the house dry as a bone as Montauk can get humid. At night, you can hear the breakers on the beach. And its only a 5 minute walk if you decide to walk down the road for an ocean swim. A walk in gate is provided on the Davis Drive side for a direct exit in the direction of the beach. To the north of the house lies Hither Woods Preserve, with miles of biking hiking and riding trails. I take my paddleboard into the park. I begin at Hidden Pond, portage barefoot about 300 yards through a forest of nestled pines, and walk over some dunes to reach the deserted LI sound beach. Pictures of this amazing area can be seen in some of the last photos, taken on my iPhone from my paddleboard. JJ, my 2 year old Cavapoo, is my sturdy companion.
