timeless liv ing
L O C AT ION & G ROU N D S Inspired by a stately French chateau, La Bastide represents the best of Gold Coast living and is situated in the highly-desirable area known as Lattingtown Harbor Estates, a community boasting its own private beach, gracious two-story beach house with wrap around decks overlooking Long Island Sound, and a small-boat mooring and dock. La Bastide is timeless, a home for all seasons. Containing 18 beautifully proportioned rooms and set in a contemporary, open-concept first floor, it is a rare find. Set on two impeccably landscaped acres, with screen trees and gardens, the gracious front courtyard frames the French chateau-inspired facade, and is complete with mahogany double doors and a grand front entrance. A flagstone side terrace is beautifully landscaped with a sunken garden and a stunning pergola, which leads to a charming, small building that houses a changing room, laundry and full bath. A short walk across the expansive greensward, leads to the pool and pool house.
