About this property

Chic, secluded beachfront house on the North Fork (limited avails this summer!)

Tucked away on a secluded stretch of Long Island’s North Fork, The Beach House is nestled on a private, Soundfront beach at the end of a beautiful, 7acre property.

The Beach House has been designed and decorated in a modern organic style, with a palette of whites and neutrals to create a serene and peaceful escape. Relax in the airy double height, light and open living room, which features a wall of glass for indoor/outdoor living with expansive, uninterrupted water views.

Spectacular 3 Bedroom, 3 Bathroom modern Beachfront retreat located on the North Fork. Designed by Australian owner and designer Kate Wadia, whose work in NYC was featured by Dwell Magazine.

Inside out living at its best, with a kitchen & living area that extends to the deck. One bedroom includes a custom made, built in queen over queen bunk bed (good for up to 4 people), the downstairs bedroom has a full / double bed, and finally a master bedroom with a queen bed that opens up into the loft space. All bedrooms have stunning views of the sound. There are 3 full bathrooms, including one in the basement where there's also a home theatre, toys/games, and an office.

The large deck has a brand new, outdoor kitchen and grill, overlooking the Long Island Sound for memorable sunsets, and with private steps to the beach. There is a glorious double shower outdoor bathroom and a hot and cold running shower on the beach itself. The deck has a large grill for cooking, and a dining table that accommodate up to 10 people (in summer)

The Beach House is move-in ready and completely furnished with linens, bath and beach towels, home theater, fast wireless internet, and a Sonos music system throughout. Beach chairs and umbrellas to enjoy the water, sun and sand at this Soundfront escape.

Only 75-miles from Manhattan (a 90-minute drive), close to the towns of Jamesport, Southold and Greenport, and 30-minutes to Southampton. The Beach House is the perfect summer escape. Stay on the property for swimming, beach walks, beach bonfires and BBQs or venture out to enjoy all the North Fork has to offer. Wine tasting at the French run winery Croteaux, lunch at the world class North Fork Table and Inn, shop at the many Organic Farms or explore the charming historic seaport village of Greenport, all short drives from the house. Assuming you want to leave!!

Beautiful Stay

A beautiful and charming stay on the cliffs above the sound with easy access to the beach just below. The views of the sunset are fantastic. A very relaxing and private stay. I’d love to stay here again

Amazing, beautifully designed beach house

The Beach House was simply amazing. We have previously rented in the Hamptons, and there is nothing that's ever come close to the private setting, views and design of this house. The attention to design details, the inside out living, the large patio for entertaining, the private stairs to a pristine, empty beach... The hosts, Kate & Daniell, who run their own design studio in NYC, could not have been nicer or more efficient in terms of communication. When we arrived, they had printed out a wonderful handbook they designed on the entire area, with curated and tasteful recommendations on the North Fork. The farm stands and wineries were superb, as were the restaurant recommendations. However we found ourselves never wanting to leave the magical property and setting, where we got to watch the sunrise and sunset every day. And when there was a rainy day, nothing was more beautiful than being inside and watching the storm pass over the sound! And the fully renovated basement includes a large TV for movie night, and plenty of boards games for a cosy night in! Our kids are still talking about the stay at 'their beach house' (we wish), and we cannot wait to return.

A peaceful paradise on the North Fork

We spent over a month at the beach house and loved it. Having a private beach to ourselves, with calm water for the kids to swim in everyday, was amazing. The house is designed for inside/outside living, so even when you are inside, you always feel connected to nature and the ocean waters. The house is very well equipped including the kitchen and a large outdoor BBQ (we ate outdoors all the time) and we enjoyed the clean, modern decor. We made the most of the nearby restaurants and wineries, however between the fresh local produce and unique setting of the house, we did enjoyed spending most of the time at the house and on the beach. I recommend this house to anyone looking for a special place to get away from it all in a modern, breezy house, while being minutes away from the charming villages of the North Fork, and less than 25-minutes to the Hamptons. And since I needed to commute to the city for work (leaving the car for my wife and kids to use), it was also convenient to have a Hampton Jitney leave from Aquebogue (less than 5-minute drive from the house)

Magical house in the most unique setting

We were excited to stay at this house based on all the pictures and the private setting we could make out from the listing. However nothing prepared us for our arrival, which was jaw dropping. The house is incredibly private, perched on a bluff overlooking the Sound, with short staircase to the private beach. You can walk miles without encountering anyone. And there is this amazing rock that is literally sitting in front of the house (as thought the house came with the rock). We enjoyed the paddle board at our disposal, and also did a little fishing right off the sound. The house is tastefully decorated (we noticed that the owners NYC home was featured in Dwell, and trusted the taste level to be amazing) and there was ample room for my husband and I, our 4 children and a couple of friends who enjoyed the guest room. The surrounding nature is beautiful. We saw hawks, deer, and even bunny rabbits coming out before the sunsets (out of a postcard). Since we were staying for several weeks, there was some back and forth with Kate (the owner) before we came out, and she was always helpful and quick to respond. It was also clear how much she cares about the experience we would have, and the attention to detail did not go unnoticed. We hope to stay there again soon, it truly was a magical stay and we feel so lucky to have found this hidden gem.

INCREDIBLE

This beach house is nothing short of HEAVEN. Interiors are crisp, sleek and white. The place is as functional inside as it is gorgeous. Three levels, which plays beautifully for guests or a family. We were able to sleep in every morning by putting the kids downstairs in the completely finished basement to watch some TV. As gorgeous as the interiors are, the real star of this place is the exterior. The house defines indoor / outdoor living and you are literally ON the ocean. Every morning you wake up to this incredible view of the ocean, and every evening, spectacular sunsets. The colors change daily - one day the sea being a gorgeous pale blue and the next bordering on crystal navy. A glass of rose on the deck at 7pm pre -dinner is literally magic. Our kids had the time of their lives playing in the flat ocean and climbing the giant rock on the beach. We paddle boarded every day for a little exercise. The owners are lovely and obviously have a young family. Everything is so user friendly and practical. They were super accessible and friendly, giving us tips on what they love to do at the house and the great surrounding restaurants. The house on arrival was immaculate. I almost hesitated to write this review cause I don't want the place to be sold out next time I try to stay - which I intend to be soon!

About the host

Hosted by Kate Wadia

Host profile image
I am an Australian born designer that lives in NYC and has been renovating homes for the past several years. Our Flatiron loft in NYC was featured in Dwell Magazine, I designed the Upper West Side apartment for the founder & CEO of Soul Cycle, and my husband and I recently renovated our family's weekend beach house on the North Fork. I have a passion for turning houses into homes by bringing the clean, breezy and natural aesthetic, inspired by my homeland in Australia.

Why they chose this property

The North Fork is a special place, only a 90-minute drive from NYC and yet surrounded by serenity and nature. Years ago my husband and I rented Soundfront homes all over the North Fork. After buying and gut renovating our own Soundfront beach house, we purchased a second beach cottage to preserve the privacy and land that had previously been owned by a family for over 100years. Having looked at every Soundfront property on the North Fork, there is literally nothing quite as private or charming as this property. Here's to the next 100 years of this property being in my family!

What makes this property unique

The Beach House offers a unique combination of beach and country living. The house is literally on the water, while being surrounded by wineries and farm stands. You can explore all the North Fork has to offer at your doorstep, and you are only a 25minute drive from Southampton, or 90-minutes from NYC.
