MAGNIFICENT GATSBY-STYLE ESTATE IN WESTHAMPTON BEACH Bayfront masterpiece presented by Christie’s Great Estates and Brown Harris Stevens of The Hamptons & The North Fork
Majestically overlooking the pristine waters of Quantuck Bay stands an elegant and opulent residence, certainly one of the grandest estates on the East End of Long Island. The landmark estate was built between 1900 and 1903 for coal baron William C. Atwater, who commissioned the celebrated architect Henry Bacon of McKim, Mead & White, best known for his design of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C. The main house comprises approximately 16,000 square feet on three levels and includes a dramatic center hall and staircase, nine bedrooms, nine full and two half baths, six original fireplaces, and 5,000 square feet of finished mahogany decks and brick and bluestone terraces. All the rooms of this magnificent treasure have glorious proportions that evoke the grandeur and grace of a bygone era. Elegant features include nine- to 10-foot ceilings, imported Italian silks, opulent wall coverings, and custom murals throughout. The large finished basement also offers a spacious temperature humidity-controlled wine cellar. Surrounded by Westhampton Beach’s idyllic waterscapes, this grand residence is serenely nestled in more than 1,000 feet of private waterfront on sought-after Quantuck Bay. A European-style carriage house, a gardener’s house, an oversized four-car garage, a boat house, a private floating dock, a Har-Tru tennis court, and a greenhouse surrounded by botanical gardens round out this extraordinary property. “This gracious waterfront estate boasts elegance, history, and Old World charm of a bygone era,” says Kathleen Coumou, Christie’s Great Estates Vice President for the Northeast Region. “The first village of The Hamptons, Westhampton Beach offers easy access to New York City and a lifestyle of tranquillity and sophistication, surrounded by the most beautiful beaches in the world.”“ Rarely do you see properties of this grandeur with so much water frontage, coupled with such an impressive range of luxurious appointments and recreational amenities,” says Charles Manger, Vice President and Director of Sales for Brown Harris Stevens. “This exceptional estate compound offers a rare opportunity to enjoy a distinctive bayfront lifestyle with a coveted Westhampton address.” This historic Shingle-style manor was completely renovated in the mid-1990s and is perfectly positioned on 10.37 acres, 4.37 of which can be subdivided into two additional parcels. Only 78 miles from midtown Manhattan, the boutique town of Westhampton Beach on the East End of Long Island offers country living in a sophisticated, peaceful beach community.
