The most beautiful estate in the Hamptons is finally for sale, La Dune! Regarded by all as the finest oceanfront compound on the East End, this iconic property at 366 & 376 Gin Lane with links to architect Stanford White offers two extraordinary residences on almost four acres, with over 405 square footage of bulkhead beach front. Sprawling gorgeous hedged lawns, mature plantings and gardens, two custom Gunite pools, and a sunken all-weather tennis court are just a few of the wonderful bells and whistles of this stunning property. Running parallel with the ocean, Southampton’s Gin Lane is arguably the pre- mier street in the Hamptons. Settled starting in the 1880s, the winding, estate-studded thoroughfare has been the summer hideaway for many prominent families and their jaw-dropping homes.
Enter through the black wooden security gates to a wide long gravel drive lined with giant boxwoods. The main four-story residence rises majestically from its front park- ing court. Constructed in the early 1900s, the 22,000 sq. ft. classic shingle-sided main home presides over rosa rugosa dunes that slope down to the wide sandy beach. The estate boasts nineteen bedrooms, fifteen full baths, and three half baths. The gathering rooms across the second level open across a series of decks and patios that all offer ocean views. The second, wholly separate residence, was built toreflect the design and proportions of the main house. Both homes are designed similarly, from dark polished wood floors, to white interiors with detailed mouldings (original in the main house), bead boards, French doors, transom windows, and coffered ceilings.
In addition, both homes offer gyms and saunas! The second residence offers a home theater and billiards room as well as ample parking, and separate staff areas. This is the ultimate property for owners who love to host large family gatherings, entertain on a large or intimate scale, appreciate historic homes, and wake up to the ocean breeze wafting through the window.
