How do you stand out from the crowd in an area that’s oversaturated with luxury white-washed beach houses and their turquoise pools? Get your pen and paper ready to take some notes, because this piece of Hamptons heaven is about to give you a masterclass. An extraordinary home hidden away in Shinnecock Hills, it makes a statement from the moment you pull up on the pebble drive. A rich and gooey chocolate colour from the outside, once inside you’ll notice a distinct European flavour in the design and styling of this home. Take the living room. With its dramatic mIrror wall over the fireplace, gilded artwork, velvet winged armchairs and antique chests and armoires, this home is made for modern-day Marie Antoninettes. The high standards continue into the bedrooms, featuring lavish touches such as oversized headboards, gold-framed artwork and exquisite rugs. Let them eat cake? The kitchen has everything you need for baking, roasting and feasting, plus a separate wine fridge to keep your Bollinger cool. There’s a hot tub and two gigantic baths for some regal-style soaking, and a barbecue to complete a perfect lazy evening. Like we said: a masterclass in attention-grabbing opulence.
