Welcome to the Presidents’ Day issue of North Fork Real Estate Showcase. This edition marks the kick-off of our third year of publication. Special thanks go out to our loyal advertisers and readers for their continuing support and encouragement. We couldn’t do it without all of you!

In this issue, we spotlight the beautiful and historic village of Cutchogue (page 14). The town of Southold celebrates its 375th anniversary this year, with many events taking place in the village of Cutchogue. The first vineyard on the North Fork was founded in 1973 in Cutchogue. Hargrave Vineyard (now known as Castello di Borghese) was founded by Louisa and Alex Hargrave, after they discovered that Cutchogue had the most hours of sunshine in New York State - ideal for growing grapes.

Be sure to read our latest MarketWatch report on page 23. After a record year in 2014, we are already off to a great start this year. Brokers are reporting that inventories are tight across the board, with everything from entry level to premium waterfront properties in high demand.

Expectations are that we will once again set new records on the North Fork in 2015.

Enjoy the issue and be sure to look for us again next month!

SPOTLIGHT

CUTCHOGUE

C

utchogue, named after the Native American tribe, the Corchaugs, who first inhabited Fort Corchaug before the English settlers arrived in 1640, is located in the Town of Southold. 2015 marks the Town of Southold’s 375th anniversary with festivities taking place in Cutchogue and other hamlets around town. Cutchogue is also where the first winery on Long Island originated, Hargrave Vineyard, established in 1973 by Louisa and Alex Hargrave. The North Fork now boasts nearly 50 wineries, several of them in Cutchogue, attracting tourists and vacationers from all over the world.

The Village Green on Main Road, Rte. 25 in Cutchogue features three centuries of historic buildings from the 17th to the 19th centuries.

According to the Cutchogue-New Suffolk Historical Council, they include The Old House, built in 1649 in Southold and moved to Cutchogue in 1660. It was restored in 1940 and designated a National Historic Landmark in 1962.

The Wickham Farmhouse built in 1704 on Rte. 25 was given to the Council in 1965, then moved to the Village Green and restored. The Old Schoolhouse, built in 1840, was Cutchogue’s first district school. Donated to the Council in 1961, it was also moved to the Village Green and restored.

The Barn, from the 19th century features a horse carriage. The 19th Century Carriage House is the information center and gift shop for the Council. Celebrating its 100th anniversary this year, Cutchogue-New Suffolk Free Library was granted its charter in 1915. It is located in the former Independent Congregational Church

and Society of Cutchogue, c.1862. The Village Garage houses a 1926 Ford Model TT Pickup Truck donated by J. Parker Wickham, shortly before he died in 2011. One mile east on Rte. 25 is The Old Burying Ground, an old cemetery with the oldest stone dating back to 1717.

In addition to its interesting history, the Cutchogue-New Suffolk Park District for residents of Cutchogue and New Suffolk features two beautiful beaches in Cutchogue on Little Peconic Bay. Pequash Avenue Beach has stairs to the beach from the bluff and Nassau Point Causeway Beach is a big, sandy beach with a boardwalk running alongside the beach. New Suffolk Beach, a Southold Town beach, is a small, sandy bay beach on the Peconic Bay in New Suffolk, overlooking Robins Island. In the summers of 1938 and 1939, Albert Einstein rented a cottage on Old Cove Road (now West Cove Road) on Nassau Point and learned how to sale on Little Peconic Bay. The first vineyard on Long Island, Hargrave Vineyard, was established in Cutchogue in 1973, when the young couple Louisa and Alex Hargrave discovered that Cutchogue was the sunniest spot in New York State and ideal for growing grapes.

They purchased 66 acres in Cutchogue and started the first vineyard on Long Island. The Hargraves founded what was to become the booming wine industry on the North Fork.They sold the vineyard in 1999 to Prince Marco and Princess Ann Marie Borghese, who renamed the vineyard Castello di Borghese – Castle of the Borgheses. The North Fork now features almost 50 wineries; many of

Wickhams Fruit Farm

N O R T H F O R K R E A L E S TAT E S H O W C A S E . C O M

them in Cutchogue, including McCall Vineyards, Pellegrini Vineyards, Peconic Bay Winery, Pugliese Vineyards, and Bedell Cellars on Rte. 25, Castello di Borghese (formerly Hargrave Vineyard) on Rte. 48, and Lieb Cellars on Oregon Road. In addition to wine tastings, the vineyards also feature live music and entertainment.

Not only is the North Fork known for its fabulous wineries but also for its delicious farm produce and fresh seafood. Wickham’s Fruit Farm, a 300-acre farm, dating back to 1661 is on Main Road and features over 15-20 varieties of apples, among other produce. Braun Seafood Company, on Main Road, founded in 1928, features fresh local seafood.

Cutchogue also has several quaint and delightful Bed & Breakfasts, including Sannino Vineyard B&B on Alvahs Lane overlooking the vineyard, The Farmhouse B&B on Depot Lane, The Fig & Olive B&B and Blue Iris B&B on Skunk Lane, and on Main Road, Andrew’s Legacy B&B and the newly opened Sunny Side Up B&B. Each has its own character, charm, and wonderful amenities.

Cutchogue is truly in the heart of North Fork wine country. It is a picturesque agricultural landscape made up of farms and vineyards, surrounded by a beautiful and varied coastline.

Stretching from the white sandy beaches of the Peconic Bay to the scenic rocky shoreline of Long Island Sound, you are never far from a glorious beach and a gorgeous sunrise or sunset over the water.

GLOWING CENTERPIECE OF THE HOME

ith the arctic blast plunging temperatures into a deep freeze, what better way to warm up on a cold winter’s day, then to snuggle up in front of your cozy fireplace. From traditional to ultramodern, wood-burning to gas-lit or ventless, the modern fireplace is the glowing centerpiece of the home.

Joseph R. LaFace, Jr. of Joseph R. LaFace Construction Inc., says the latest trend in fireplaces is the pre-fab gas fireplace with a remote control. It is easy to turn the flame on and off with no messy firewood, no soot, no smoke, and no fumes. It is cleaner for the environment and energy efficient, with blowers that recirculate the heat and a solid glass panel in front to prevent heat from escaping. For entertainment, a flat screen TV can be recessed into the surround of the fireplace. A wood mantel over the fireplace, below the TV can display artwork or photographs and will deflect the heat away from the TV. A flush hearth made of granite or marble will protect the floor. The traditional surround can be made of stacked stone,

brick, slate, marble or tile. Rising from the floor to the ceiling, the captivating fireplace is the focal point of the room. www.jlafaceconstruction.com Hampton Hearth & Patio owned by Nicole and Robert Elliston in both Southampton and Southold, features gas and wood-burning fireplaces from 15 different companies. Nicole notes the most popular fireplace is the linear gas fireplace. It is long, rectangular, and narrow, and is raised off the floor with no mantel. You can tone it down by adding some logs to make it look warmer. In keeping with the ultramodern look, the surround can be made of sheetrock painted to match the rest of the room.This clean, simple, and sleek design fits the modern home and provides hours of warmth and comfort. www.hamptonhearth.com Michael Scanlon, owner of Sag Harbor Fireplace Showroom in Sag Harbor, observes one of the biggest trends in home heating and fireplaces comes from a Belgium company called Stûv. The Stûv wood-burning fireplace is mounted in the wall,

and puts out heat like a wood stove. It comes with a fan and can heat a large area with high efficiency.

Its minimalist design is very modern with rectangular clean lines and a retractable glass door. It is a powerful heating unit. www.sagharborfireplace.net HearthCabinet Ventless Fireplaces owned by Arthur Lasky in Manhattan, features the ventless fireplace using a clean-burning alcohol gel fuel cartridge system with no chimney, no gas, and no electricity. Fully assembled and self-contained, with low emissions, it only requires a window or natural ventilation. Its safety features include a top-hinged, locking, rigid steel-mesh screen door. Popular in metropolitan areas, the ventless fireplace is also great in a home where a flue or chimney is obstructed, such as in a bedroom, sitting room or library. It is ideal in historical renovations, as no construction or connections are needed. The beautifully designed ventless fireplace is a less expensive, high quality alternative to the gas-lit or wood-burning traditional fireplace. www.hearthfireplaces.com Whether you choose traditional or ultramodern, wood-burning, gas-lit, or ventless, once you relax in front of your radiant fireplace, the frigid temperatures of winter will soon be a memory, and you’ll be dreaming of those warm summer beach days to come.

BY RUTH THOMAS

A

fter a very good year for real estate on the North Fork in 2014, 2015 is already off to a great start. The rental season has started early. Interest rates are low, inventory is down, prices are rising, and all areas of the market are strong. The North Fork continues to be a desirable destination spot.

Judi Desiderio of Town & Country Real Estate remarks, “This year I am receiving reports from all eight T&C offices that appointments are unusually brisk for January. 2014 was the beginning of a great wave on the North Fork! The crowds are discovering the beauty, exceptional pastoral views, waterways, and farm to table fare that originated on the North Fork.” She observes, “All markets are strong. But we need product. We have plenty of customers.” Judi reflects, “2014 was the best year on the North Fork, but 2015 will be even better!

The best is yet to come!”

Town & Country Real Estate

“Seasonal rentals are already off to a strong start. Every area of the North Fork is hot.”

Amanda Field of Douglas Elliman Real Estate predicts, “We will see many visitors out here again this summer.” She observes, “All communities are selling right now in all price ranges.We will see more high-end luxury sales this year. Interest rates remain historically low. Prices continue to increase as rising sales outpace the expansion of inventory.” Amanda remarks, “We are off to a great start so far in 2015.We are a destination for many secondary homeowners, seeking the quiet beauty of the North Fork.”

- Erin Kaelin, North Fork Real Estate Inc.

Marianne Collins of Brown Harris Stevens notes, “The rental season is starting early and promises to be strong. As with rentals, we are seeing buyers starting their search early.” She states, “Prices are stable and appear poised to increase. Inventories are tight in soughtafter segments (e.g. entry level, premium waterfront), after such strong sales in 2014. Proximity to beaches or water of any kind, farm views, hamlet centers close to restaurants and services – are all in demand. 2014 was a very strong year across price ranges.” Marianne observes, “The market has been steadily gaining strength with every indication of continuing to do so in 2015.”

Jocelyn Meyer Haas of Corcoran notes, “Rentals have started off in full swing.” She believes, “With multiple bidding wars and many properties in contract over asking, 2015 is surely the year to sell. Greenport will continue to be highly desired. It’s the best of all worlds with shopping, beaches, quality dining, and

entertainment in close vicinity. Similarly, the more recent transformation of Love Lane in Mattituck has created a new attractiveness for the area.”

Jocelyn exclaims, “The secret of the North Fork has gotten out! Having been a primary market for so long, the transition to a secondary market is going to keep us busy.”

Erin Kaelin of North Fork Real Estate Inc. states, “Seasonal rentals are already off to a strong start. Every area of the North Fork is hot.

Whatever your preference, bay or sound, beach person or boater, fisherman or paddle boarder, foodie or wine connoisseur, the North Fork has something to offer you.” She observes, “New, more favorable FHA rules will give greater access to homeownership. Interest rates are predicted to stay low. That will keep the market healthy through 2015.” Erin reflects, “2014 was a great year in real estate on the North Fork and 2015 promises to be even better.”

Diane Dunbar of Albertson Realty observes, “The seasonal summer rental market is very strong. The market is hot across the board.” She

Town & Country Real Estate

remarks, “Low-end and moderate-priced homes have high demand but very low inventory. This keeps that segment very active, especially any home priced in the $300,000 to $400,000 range.

Inventory is very low for high-end homes as well, especially waterfront properties. A significant trend is the high number of all-cash transactions across all segments of the marketplace.” Diane believes, “The outlook for 2015 looks strong.

As long as the demand continues to exceed the inventory, we will be very busy.”

Marie Beninati of Beninati Associates predicts, “The upcoming rental season is going to be great!

I’ve had lots of inquiries and have already booked rentals for the summer.” She notes, “Now is a good time for sellers to put their homes on the market because of recent higher demand and lower than normal supply. Since there’s not really a lot of new construction on the North Fork, land has emerged as an alternative for many buyers. Waterfront is always desired and unique, interesting properties will sell if they’re priced right.” Marie reflects,“The North Fork is going to bloom dramatically. 2015 will be a very good year.”

Tom McCarthy of Thomas J. McCarthy Real Estate, Inc. states, “The upcoming rental season looks good. The outlook for 2015 is positive with signs of strength in the market. In 2014, Southold Town non-waterfront sales were the same as 2013, while the median price went up 5.5%. Waterfront saw the greatest change, up 23% in dollars spent.” He predicts, “Turnkey properties in prime locations will command the most interest and will trade for a real premium.

Prices will go up especially on waterfront.” Tom foresees, “More vacant lots will sell in 2015 and properties in good condition and properly priced, will move quickly.”

The North Fork real estate market in 2015 is poised to be even better than 2014, one of their best years ever. The North Fork is unique with its abundance of wineries, entertainment, restaurants, and shopping amidst beautiful surroundings.

Come make the North Fork your destination and experience its many wonders.

HIGH LEVEL OF SERVICE SEAN NETHERCOTT OF BENINATI ASSOCIATES

“We, as a firm, are very service oriented and always go the extra mile.”

W

e had the great pleasure recently to interview Sean Nethercott of Beninati Associates, a seasoned and knowledgable North Fork resident.

HRES: The North Fork is a unique market, would you agree and why?

SN: I agree 100 percent. The North Fork is a very special place. It still retains its laidback small town feel however it is gradually turning into a soughtafter destination. Land preservation and landmarks preservation add to the allure because they ensure much of the charm will be retained. I see a lot of millennials from Manhattan and Brooklyn attracted to the area because of this. Greenport Village, in particular, draws many of these buyers because they can get away from the hectic city life and relax without the need of an auto – they use the Jitney or railroad and can walk to almost anything in town!

HRES: Can you tell us of some of your more notable sales?

SN: My most notable sale was actually my first. sale.

It was a property bequeathed to an art museum by the prior owners who were sculptors. During the final walk through we found two large wooden crates that were overlooked by the museum. Inside were plaster molds for sculptures that were never made and the museum wanted the molds to be destroyed.

On the morning of the closing a colleague and I broke all the molds and documented the result with

pictures that we sent to the museum before they would close. I showed up to the closing covered in plaster dust! Talk about doing what it takes to make a deal! In the end our clients get results and are pleased with our high standards of service.

HRES: What is it that distinguishes you from your competition?

SN: Providing the level of service I do for our clients. We, as a firm, are very service oriented and always go the extra mile - whether it be unique staging, being on hand for every showing, and even checking on homes especially in the winter while clients are away.

HRES: What is the best advice you can give a 2nd home buyer when searching for a vacation home on the North Fork?

SN: Keep an open mind and be flexible. While a property may not be located directly on the bay, or the kitchen and bathrooms may be dated, I have seen many buyers turn a home’s shortcomings into opportunities and make their new home something spectacular, and in most cases, adding value.

HRES: What do you like to do on the North Fork...after selling real estate of course?

SN: I love to get out on the water anyway I can.

Whether it’s relaxing on the beach or getting out on a boat or kayak. Having grown up here I have a good knowledge of the waterways.

C R E AT E Y O U R PERFECT LANDSCAPE PLANNING FOR SPRING

BY ANNE HALPIN

inter is the perfect time to assess your home landscape to see if you are happy with the way it looks and functions, or if there is room for improvement.

Planning now for changes or additions you want to make in spring puts you ahead of the game.You can consult with landscape and design professionals to zero in on changes you want to make, then get your project into their schedule before the spring rush hits.

spring through fall. The right landscaping around your home makes the house look grounded and complete, integrated into its setting. The house just looks like it belongs there. Plantings, hardscape and structures can also work, individually or in concert, to welcome visitors and direct them to your door, or to provide privacy screening to create just the right setting for outdoor activities such as dining, playing sports and games, exercising or doing yoga, or just plain relaxing.The landscape works on many levels.

wind? Screening between your plants and the prevailing winds is a good idea, even if you don’t live near the water.

Investing time and money into the grounds around your home is well worth the cost and effort. Not only does good landscaping enhance the appeal of any home and create a beautiful setting for it, a well-designed landscape will also work for you, making it easier to get around to all parts of your property and to do the things you like to do outdoors. The landscape helps support your lifestyle and interests. Landscaping has been shown to boost resale values and overall property worth. But perhaps above all, your landscape can simply improve the quality of your life in many ways. That is, if it is designed to suit your needs.

Assessing Your Landscape Here are some things to think about as you walk your property and consider your landscape: First, what are the growing conditions on your site? How much sun do you get, and at what times of day? Sun lovers like roses need at least 5 to 6 hours of unobstructed sunlight a day. If you haven’t got it, opt for plants that can thrive in shade (and there are varying degrees of shade).

How do you use your outdoor space? If you like to entertain, is there space for dining, for gathering friends? Would you like to see colorful flowers near your patio, or a privacy screen alongside the deck? Would you like an outdoor kitchen, or better lighting? Or a fire pit, chiminea or outdoor heater for cool weather?

Here on the East End, well-designed outdoor space increases your total living space from late

What’s your soil like? Get a soil test and choose plants adapted to the kind of soil you’ve got.Then add compost each year to keep it healthy.

Do you have color when you want it most? Include plants that look best when you are most likely to spend time outdoors. Plan your landscape around your favorite time to be outdoors. Summer, of course, but for many of us, autumn is the favorite time of year.

Spending time assessing your home landscape now can let you more fully enjoy your outdoor space when the weather is fine.
