Exquisite Farmhouse Retreat in Water Mill South
Set on 1.4 private acres in the heart of Water Mill South, this meticulously restored 18th-century farmhouse offers a rare balance of historic character and modern refinement. Renovated in 2023, the home preserves its original soul, featuring wide-plank hardwood floors, exposed beams, and five fireplaces, while introducing elevated finishes and contemporary comfort. Interiors are thoughtfully furnished, with elegant living and dining spaces, a chef's kitchen, and five serene bedrooms designed for effortless summer living. The grounds unfold as a secluded Hamptons enclave. Formal boxwoods, specimen trees, and sweeping lawns surround the main house, while an alfresco dining area beneath a mature chestnut tree invites long, unhurried meals. Beyond the garden, a separate carriage house anchors the outdoor experience with a heated gunite pool, changing room, bathroom, and kitchenette. Above the garage, a private studio with full bath offers additional flexibility and retreat. Just minutes from ocean beaches, dining, and shopping, 317 Mecox Road is a timeless summer residence, romantic in origin, polished in execution, truly exceptional.
