Tuesday Tours Ep.04 - New York Luxury Real Estate - Southampton Mansion

Hello friends, I am Rochelle LeCavalier, welcome to Tuesday Tours: Hamptons Edition. Today, we are in South Hampton Village, nestled just south of the highway and a stone’s throw from Ocean Front Billionaire’s Row. We are going to be meeting up with a friend of mine, Laura Nigro, to preview her new beautiful construction listing at 290 Narrow Lane. There are some builder features in this house that you are going to love! Let’s have a look!

At first glance, you can clearly see how much work and attention to detail goes into these historic properties. The house is approximately 10,000 square feet, with 7,000 on the first and second floors each, and about 3,000 on the lower level.

One of the things that immediately caught my eye is this beautiful kitchen. Over the sink you can see the 2-inch thick marble slab that’s bevel cut on the sides. All electrical outlets are tucked up underneath the cabinets so that they don’t interrupt the flow. It also comes with a full WOLF and SubZero appliance package, including the massive stove, freezer, and refrigerator.

The entire lower level is about fun and entertainment for the family and the kids. It includes a gym with cushion# floors that’s ready for exercise equipment, a sauna and steam shower, a full-sized movie theatre, and even a real-life Golf Simulator. Fortunately, the adults of the family are also well taken care of as the master is quite a crib.

The master feels and looks more spacious due to it having tray ceilings instead of the usual 10-foot height, and has a beautiful gas fireplace. There are a few special things about the master bath. It has radiant heat flooring and a warm room outside the shower. On the way to it, what you will find are two separate master closets.

The house also comes with a huge deck that’s only accessible from the master and shows the backyard and 20 x 50 swimming pool beautifully.

In the backyards, you have access to the pool, a pool house, a built-in barbeque kitchen with appliances, and a large covered porch, perfect for outdoor activities.

Tuesday Tours Ep.03 - President's Summer White House Tour in Sag Harbour

Welcome to Tuesday Tours, Hamptons edition. Today, we are in Downtown Sag Harbor, and we are going to be meeting up with

Miss Rima Mardoyan Smyth, and taking a look at one of this place’s historic houses.

When you think of the Hamptons, the few things that come to mind are:

   - Farm fresh produce,

   - Amazing restaurants,

   - Beaches,

    - And of course, for many people, amazing outdoor spaces with lush gardens.

The charm and attraction of Sag Harbor is that it's historical and includes many architectural masterpieces. Built in 1796 and located in Sag Harbor, this was a summer home for an American President, Chester Arthur, and was also known as the "Summer White House". Unlike most 20 to 30 year old houses, this one was renovated and restored instead of being torn down and replaced.

Every part of this house is unique and everything was designed to make the interior resemble and give a 70s atmosphere. Every piece of hardware was cast and imported from London, such as the door knobs and waterworks.

In the kitchen you have a beautiful giant WOLF gas range, an immense model island, a gorgeous sink, brass hardware and all the windows have been blown in Savannah to give it an old wobbly old fashioned look. And it’s all thanks to the genius of Steven Gambrel, an amazing interior decorator and architect responsible for bringing this house back in time OR responsible for modernizing it without taking out the historic details.

In addition to being President Chester Arthur’s retreat home, it was later owned by Lady Caroline Blackwood and her husband.

It’s difficult to pick a favorite feature at 20 Union. The house’s garden is extremely beautiful and dreamy, which is landscaped by the owner herself, the Dining Room provides a very cozy and comfortable experience, and the bathroom looks gorgeous with the custom made marble finishes and hardware specially cast and imported from London, such as the door knobs and waterworks. It’s clear that no shortcuts were taken designing this interior.
