This home on historic Shelter Island is as vibrant as they come. Designed by noted NYC architects Paul Aferiat and Peter Stamberg – and featured in many a magazine and television show – the home blends the line between art and architecture in a glorious exploration of Newtonian colour theory. The colour is bold – from a lime green roof, to shocking pink and orange walls, to a canary yellow dining table – and translucent walls make the whole space glow. There’s a hanging, rotating fireplace to keep you cosy, a private swimming pool to cool off in, and a Bertazzoni range cooker to keep the culinary whizz of your group happy. The house is split into two parts, giving a balance of privacy and places to gather. And it’s likely that you’ll be gathering outside by the pool to grill a feast as you relax in the sunshine. When you head out, you’ll find the small private beach at Coecles Harbor a short walk away, and a five-minute drive will take you to the many larger beaches in the area.
