Embrace Hamptons living from this beautiful East Hampton hideaway. Found only a short way from several beaches, including Louse Point Town Beach, you can use one of four bicycles available to cycle there in a few minutes. But we'd recommend packing the car so you can take the inflatable paddle boards for even more fun in the sun. And if fun is your main objective, the house shouldn't be forgotten. With a private pool and sprawling lawn where little ones can play ball, the suntrap garden can double as an alfresco entertainment space. The're also a activity room with a Peleton bike for anyone wanting to keep up their fitness.

Home truths:

*Since the photoshoot, the hedges and fence surrounding the pool have been removed as well as some of the deck furniture.
