A true work of art and architectural beauty combined with comfort and elegance is now offered with this rare opportunity to own in the prestigious Whitefield Estate in Southampton Village. Originally the Breese estate built in 1895 by famed architect Stanford White; this historic 16.3 acre beautifully landscaped property was purchased by a developer in 1980 and renamed the Whitefield Estate. At that time the main house was restored and divided into five apartments and an additional 24 houses were built around the perimeter of the property. The grounds were meticulously restored and nestled amid lush vegetation, are sculpture gardens, an in-ground pool, and a Har-Tru tennis court. While offering ample privacy this tranquil elegant property has convenient proximity to the Ocean Beaches and historic Southampton Village.
This sun-drenched two-story townhouse was completely rebuilt from the ground up in 2015 and features radiant heat as well as two zone heating and air conditioning. An open floor plan leads from the elegant foyer with beautifully designed powder room and a modern kitchen to a spacious living and dining room with a wet bar and a plush open den with wood burning fireplace. The south facing windows look out to the beautifully landscaped private outdoor patio with covered seating. The floating staircase is an architectural masterpiece that leads up to a master suite, a junior suite, and an additional bedroom and full bath. The open main floor plan is perfect for entertaining, and for larger groups, the community’s music room and beautiful courtyard are available for owners’ private use. Additional amenities include a laundry and garage on the main level, and ample guest parking. This uniquely modern but elegant and historic opportunity is available with all the designer furnishings if desired.
