Travelling east along the Long Island Peninsula, you’ll pass the affluent suburbs of The Hamptons, the state’s most gorgeous coastlines, and tons of quirky museums and galleries en route. But after witnessing everything this land has to offer, all you really need is right at the tip. Montauk’s intriguing history of fishing, lakes, nature, and the oldest lighthouse in the state makes for a charming town – with your home sitting just a ten-minute drive from its maritime beacon. When you arrive at your perfectly landscaped, private grounds (nearly an acre in size), you’ll feel immediately ready to relax and recline. Enter the home via a huge wooden decking, where a fire pit, barbecue, and rustic seating awaits. We imagine you’re already pining to get back out here for grilled, local fish and a glass of pinot grigio, but first take a look at the interiors. Understated yet stylish, the vast living space has high, sloped ceilings which create an airy feel. While there’s a cosy, wood-burning fireplace for chilly nights, the old-fashioned wooden ceiling fan is here to help on hot afternoons. With wicker and soft furnishings throughout, you’ll feel less like a guest here and more like part of the family.
