Property Description
This Water Island ocean front home feels like a private island yet is only a short distance from NYC. This captivating 4-bedroom, 2-bath residence is nestled along the seashell-filled beaches of Water Island, and sits high atop the second dune, protected by the National Seashore to the east and west. The home was originally owned by fashion designer Perry Ellis. It was later purchased and recreated by renowned NY-based architect Alan Wanzenberg and Interior designer Jed Johnson who described the seaside escape as a "simple yet elegant place that is close to perfection". It has been featured in prestigious publications like "World of Interiors", "New Seaside Interiors", "Elle Decor" and was also in The NY Times in a 2010 article paying homage to Wanzenberg for his signature eclectic style. This exquisite beach Chalet elevates ones spirits from every angle. An airy ambiance is created throughout the primary second floor bedroom and guest room which feature exposed beam ceilings and large double hung corner windows which fill the rooms with the pristine views of the water and well-established native plants. The second floor deck offers unobstructed 360 degree water views of the Atlantic Ocean and Great South Bay. This home's design seamlessly integrates its surrounding with large windows that invite natural light into the open living/dining room. Floor to ceiling white-washed cedar adorn the walls which carry into the ceiling beams. The decor echoes the coastal charm with nautical accents that creates a serene and almost magical retreat that only Fire Island can offer. On the upper deck, the ocean facing hammock is a wonderful place to spot whales and dolphins or read a book. The eat-in-kitchen boasts gorgeous views of the Great South Bay. On the first floor is a ship-like guest room with double beds, and an adorable bunk room off the kitchen. Simple, elegant, and connected to the community of Water Island, yet apart, the house comes with its own 200 ft. private dock where you can enjoy breathtaking sunsets or cast for striped bass. Immerse yourself in a lifestyle of unparalleled tranquility at 1 Atlantic Ocean Walk Water Island.
