Sunshine Stop Long Island, New York

Property Description

Smacking of old school charm, this traditional shingle-style home is an East Hampton hideaway. Knocked-through walls and a lack of doors create a huge, open-feel living space downstairs, with room to play a game of chess on the brightly tiled table or whip up something delicious in the chef's kitchen. If you do want a bit of privacy, there are two further lounges in each of the master bedrooms. Bookcases stuffed with interesting reads, a record collection, and quirky artwork give the home a lived-in vibe, with several sofas and dining areas to hang-out and discuss the day's plan. Borrow the home's bikes and cycle the half-mile to Wiborg Beach – or for those who fancy a challenge, try out the surfboards. If that all sounds a little strenuous, lounge by the heated saltwater swimming pool or soak in the jacuzzi bathtub, with views over the neighbouring nature reserve.

Home truths:
*There is a further single bed in the living area
*The home provides bikes, boogie boards and surfboards, though they are used at your own risk
*Due to the climate, the pool may not be available between September and May, enquire with your host beforehand
