Erected during the peak of 19th-century summer social life in the Hamptons, this historic Federal-style mansion from the 1850s is a unique chance to acquire an authentic slice of history.

Spanning three levels and featuring a porte cochère, covered porches, and numerous verandas, this residence boasts 12 bedrooms and 10 bathrooms, perfect for hosting a multitude of family and friends.

Beautifully landscaped grounds include a manicured allée, various seating areas surrounding the pool and porches, an outdoor fireplace, built-in barbecue, and stunning sculpted gardens. The home is a remarkable representation of the Summer Colony era in the Hamptons, a time when Southampton transitioned from a quaint village to the prestigious resort it is today.
