Luxury Minimalist Residence Overlooking Gardiner's Bay in the Hamptons Valued at $17 Million, Perched atop a Tall Cliff
Minimalist Hamptons Home Doubles as Media Lounge and Car Collector's Dream
In the heart of East Hampton, a minimalist masterpiece designed by Stelle Lomont Rouhani Architects and built by John Hummel and Associates is setting the pace in the Hamptons market. The 5,500-square-foot home, listed for just under $17 million with Mala Sander of The Corcoran Group, is a blend of glass, steel, cedar, and concrete that seamlessly marries avant-garde 20th-century modernist architecture with warmth and comfort for a modern lifestyle.
The home's design philosophy emphasizes minimalism, elegance, and a connection to nature. Large windows, open layouts, and natural light bring the outdoors in, taking advantage of the Hamptons’ scenic landscapes and creating serene, airy interiors. The main level is open and airy, with a double-sided fireplace, a chic dry bar in the dining room, and a sculptural kitchen.
The minimalist aesthetic adheres to a philosophy that favors understated luxury over ostentation, ensuring that the aesthetics remain enduring rather than trend-driven. The home features three bedrooms and four-and-a-half baths, with each space designed with a refined, understated elegance.
The home's outdoor spaces are equally impressive. A wall of glass opens to a staircase that zigzags up to the pool, creating a dramatic focal point. Multiple lounging zones and a full outdoor kitchen make summer dinners easier, while a sunken, pergola-shaded lounge alongside the infinity pool boasts one of three outdoor fireplaces.
The primary suite offers wraparound water views, a large walk-in closet, a private deck, and indoor and outdoor showers. The home borders 600 acres of protected preserve and gazes out over Gardiners Bay, offering breathtaking views and a sense of tranquility.
The home's eco-friendly features include geothermal heating and cooling, solar-powered HVAC, and other discreetly green systems, making it not only a stylish retreat but also a sustainable one. The finished subterranean level features a climate-controlled walk-in wine cellar and a pro-grade gym with a steam room and dry sauna.
The home is situated in East Hampton, a classic area within the Hamptons known for blending historic charm with modern coastal living. The area is currently seeing a surge in luxury sales, with the second quarter of 2022 reporting $1.4 billion in sales, a 15 percent year-over-year bump[3].
