Luxury Real Estate and "The Hamptons" Go Hand-in-Hand

The Hamptons have the reputation for being the playground for the rich and powerful who come from all over to revel in the beautiful weather, relish the sophisticated art and social scenes and enjoy some of the greatest restaurants and clubs anywhere. If you are contemplating making a move, purchasing a second home or looking for a rental property in an idyllic setting in an exclusive area, you may want to consider luxury real estate in the Hamptons. 

Some of the most expensive zip codes in the nation Sagaponack, Water Mill and Bridgehampton are all located in the Hamptons. According to an article in Business Week, the fourth quarter of 2012, saw 49 homes in the Hamptons sell for at least $5 million; the most expensive home was a Water Mill oceanfront property which sold for $20 million. 

There are several other breathtaking properties currently on the market in Water Mill. Whether you’re looking for an ocean or bay view, contemporary or traditional construction, the variety of homes available in Water Mill characterizes true luxury real estate in the Hamptons. 

One of the most incredible homes currently on the market is a Jeffrey Colle designed estate located at 173 Davids Lane in Water Mill. Jeffrey Cole is one of the most respected Hamptons builders around today and is known for using only the highest-quality finishes and materials, unequalled workmanship and attention to detail not typically found in current construction. Colle scouts the world over to find the best materials like Carrera Marble and Turkish Limestone. Chef-quality kitchens, the heart of the home, all feature top appliances from such respected names as Viking and Sub-Zero. This home has six bedrooms and five baths. 

The Davids Lane property gives new meaning to the word “custom” both inside and out. Everything about the property was created for this home, right down to the custom molded brackets for the kitchen cabinets. The innovative features of the home, make it the appropriate choice for only the most discriminating home buyer. 

The home sits on approximately 1.55 acres and is an expansive 8,000 square feet of luxury living space. The home is traditionally-styled and features three fireplaces, a first floor master bedroom complete with sitting room, Chef-inspired kitchen and formal dining room, granite or stone counters, Carrera marble baths, media room, game room, five guestroom suites, pool house adjacent to the in-ground, heated pool and Turkish limestone patio.
