Few would argue that the Hamptons feels markedly different from its northerly counterpart. In similar ways, Nassau Point feels distinct even from the rest of the North Fork. Jutting some four miles into Peconic Bay, this wooded peninsula slopes southward and upward from “mainland” Cutchogue, reaching elevations as high as 90 feet above sea level. It effuses a certain old-world timelessness that’s meticulously preserved and carefully guarded — and rightfully so.
Encompassing four and a quarter acres of prime Nassau Point real estate, 1350 West Cove Road represents a rare offering in the coveted East End market, complete with 306 feet of private beach on pristine Peconic Bay. Anchoring the property is a nearly 10,000-square-foot main residence, completed in 2006 and pairing today’s conveniences with the classic Shingle Style architecture of days gone by. There’s also a spacious two-bedroom, two-bath guest cottage, allowing short- and long-term guests to comfortably and privately join you in the veritable wonderland of woods, waters, and wineries that is Long Island’s North Fork.
Arrive by sea via the private dock, entering through the living room, or make a formal entrance through the foyer at the home’s gracious front elevation, punctuated with stone walls and a two-story turret tiered like a wedding cake. The main living area, along with two of the four first-floor bedrooms, look to the waterfront with direct access to the massive back patio. Also on this level: four baths, a powder room, a spacious eat-in kitchen with dual professional-grade ovens and ranges, and a private media room that extends outward with a curving wall of windows.
Coastal Solace
on the North Fork
BY E.J. KELLEY
A dock, a putting green, and a two-bedroom guest cottage are but some of the highlights at this spacious waterfront retreat, encompassing more than four acres of prime Peconic Bay shoreline.
Though of modern construction, the home’s exterior channels the classic New England coastal vernacular with the utmost authenticity, unfurling through swooping gables, curving window bays, and cleverly integrated balconies that emphasize the spoils of coastal living. Accordingly, interior spaces enjoy wide aperture water views and seamless indoor-outdoor flow. A mélange of gabled and shed dormers, along with other eye-catching protrusions, give the visual narrative of a true family heirloom, built not overnight but over the course of generations.
Almost the entirety of the home’s second floor is occupied by the primary suite, boasting its own foyer, a lavish dressing room flanked with a trio of walk-in closets, and a spacious bath that’s almost as large as the bedroom itself, replete with dual water closets and a whirlpool tub set under a bay window to soak in the view. Other standout attributes include an adjacent home office space and a curvilinear balcony at the center of the home’s rear elevation. The front of this level adds a sizable gym with its own full bath and sauna, which connects to an adjacent living room and another home office — making this a true haven for those who work hard and play harder.
The finished lower level adds a spacious laundry room, ample storage and utility space, a half-dozen flex/bonus rooms, and three additional en suite bedrooms, two of which are connected but each of which utilize a private bath. Include the guest cottage and you’re up to a total of 10 bedrooms and 10-and-a-half baths.
Beyond the natural draws of the water, the grounds additionally boast a full roster of resort amenities, including a gunite pool and spa, adjacent pool house, a spacious tennis and basketball court, a multi-hole putting green, and a calming rock pond.
It’s a once-in-a-lifetime chance to own a timelessly desirable slice of the North Fork.
