SOUTHAMPTON, N.Y., May 15, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The Ertegun Residence: An Iconic Waterfront Estate in Southampton
In the luxurious and enchanting Southampton, New York, the Ertegun Residence on Taylor Creek emerges not merely as an architectural triumph but as a beacon of cultural and historical significance. Designed in 1990 by the distinguished AIA award-winning architect Jaquelin T. Robertson for Ahmet and Mica Ertegun, this waterfront home epitomizes design excellence throughout its 11,000 square feet.
Ahmet Ertegun, co-founder of Atlantic Records, and his wife Mica, a philanthropist and co-founder of the celebrated interior design firm Mac II, created a residence that offers a grand retreat for both relaxation and entertaining. Nestled amid the Hamptons' natural splendor, the home harmonizes with its panoramic waterfront views and magnificent sunsets.
Key Features of the Ertegun Residence:
- Spacious Elegance: The estate boasts ten bedrooms, including two master suites, and thirteen and a half bathrooms. Its voluminous spaces and towering ceilings create an inviting atmosphere for residents and guests alike.
- Luxurious Amenities: The property includes five fireplaces, surrounding terraces and decks, a majestic 20x75 foot swimming pool with a separate cabana and bath, and a private dock. Separate staff quarters and a three-car garage complete the complex.
- Architectural and Design Excellence: The residence's H-shaped plan integrates an extended service wing and pool court that blend seamlessly with the landscape. A flight of broad steps leads to a majestic great room, featuring a soaring pyramidal vault and roof lantern. The interiors, adorned with custom finishes, epitomize luxury and warmth.
- Cultural and Historical Significance: Deeply ingrained with the Erteguns' cosmopolitan heritage, the estate reflects Mica Ertegun's vision, inspired by the neoclassical styles of early nineteenth-century United States and czarist Russia.
- Interior Design Masterclass: The great room, with its dramatic double-cube design, sandstone pavers, and unique wall coatings, is a highlight of the residence. French windows offer tranquil views to the terrace and sea, blending indoor and outdoor spaces seamlessly.
- Versatile Spaces: The dining room, expansive kitchen, butler's pantry, and library provide functionality and elegance. The primary suite, with its pitch-vaulted ceiling and yellow ocher stucco, offers both grandeur and relaxation.
- Exquisite Landscaping: Manicured pear and linden trees establish a formal garden that complements the home's aesthetic. The private dock on Taylor Creek ensures direct access to Shinnecock Bay, ideal for boating enthusiasts.
