Hamptons Beach Houses

Chiat Beach House by HS2 Architecture was Built with an 18th Century Barn Frame

Since it looks like New York's summer heat wave came a little late this year, we decided to feature one of our most swoon-worthy seaside dwellings. The Chiat Beach House by HS2 Architecture is located in the small Southampton town of Sagaponack, notable for being the country's most expensive zip code back in 2009. And though this home might not scream "million dollar listing," it most certainly is something to see, as it's built around an 18th century Vermont barn frame that was salvaged, restored, and re-erected to create the home's striking "great room."

Whaler’s Lane Residence by Rogers Marvel Architects is a Beacon on the Amagansett Shores

As far as the Hamptons go, Amagansett is one of the most exclusive neighborhoods. From Lou Reed to Sarah Jessica Parker, celebrities love the quiet hamlet, located on Long Island's South Shore. Eclectic beach houses dot the dune-lined beachfront, and one of our favorites is the Whaler's Lane Residence by Rogers Marvel Architects. A renovation and expansion of an existing oceanfront beach cottage, this home is made up of a series of shingle-wrapped exterior and interior spaces connected via wooden pathways. The original structure provided inspiration for the design, as the project maintained similar materials and profiles to create a contextual residence.
