That all-American, wood clad, cosily furnished Hamptons home you've been dreaming of? We've found it. With its picture-perfect setting, its traditional (yet stylish) interiors, beautiful terrace and sprawling country-style kitchen, it's got everything you could want for a stay on the illustrious Shelter Island. Bedrooms are grand, with antique dressers and each of the cosy living rooms are packed with seaside-themes trinkets and a library's-worth of bookshelves. The sprawling grounds are perfectly manicured and hidden away at the back is the dreamiest of swimming pools, surrounded by seagrasses and created to look like a wild pond – heaven. Long summer nights can be spent enjoying drinks in the garden as you leave the grill masters to fire up dinner – a state of the art sound system will help you create the perfect setting. Sea lovers need only wander five minutes from the home to find a peaceful nearby beach, perfect for sandy strolls in the morning or evening.
