This traditional house at 9 Ocean Avenue in East Hampton looks out onto upper Hook Pond while sitting on more than an acre in an estate section of the village. The property affords both privacy and tranquility by the pond and proximity to Main Beach and the shops and restaurants in the heart of the village.
Originally built in 1940, the 3,500-square-foot, home has been recently renovated for to reflect its chic address. With five bedrooms and four and a half baths, it is listed with Sotheby’s Patricia Wadzinski at $6.3 million. An open house will take place on Saturday, October 17, from 2:30 to 4 p.m.
A foyer leads to a large living room with a fireplace, a separate dining room, and media room or office. The kitchen opens to covered and opened terraces. An unusually large pantry — 13.3 feet by 8.5 feet — with shelving would be a haven for any chef or hostess — there is plenty of room for bottles of Veuve Clicquot or to stack extra plates for the next big party.
A bedroom and bath for staff is also located on the first floor, along with a powder room for guests.
The master bedroom suite on the second floor is truly that, as it has its own private study and a 13-by-21-foot terrace overlooking the pool. Just down the hall, a junior master suite has its very own sitting area. Two additional guest bedrooms — one with a fireplace — share a bath.
Both the covered and open terraces on stone patios provide the perfect setting for outdoor dining and entertaining. The rolling 1.3-acre property also has a heated gunite, freeform pool.and mature landscaping designed for complete privacy.
When you are inside on hot summer days, there is air conditioning to keep you cool. There is also a two-car garage.
