“QUINTESSENTIALS” QUINTESSENCE

A HISTORIC INN HITS THE MARKET IN EAST MARION

recipient of the 2016 Trip Advisor Award of Excellence, Quintessentials, in East Marion, has long been one of the most charming Bed and Breakfasts on the North Fork. Recently, this historic treasure, which is housed in a sea captain’s house, hit the market for the first time in twenty-three years. Ever dreamed of running a b-and-b? Now’s your chance!

The Numbers Located at 8985 Main Road, in East Marion, this four thousand square-foot Italianate mansion dates to the mid-1800s and sits on .75 of an acre. It has fifteen rooms, six bedrooms, eight bathrooms, four fireplaces, two sunrooms, three outbuildings. Listed at $1.2 million with Victoria Germaise of Douglas Elliman Real Estate.

Top-drawer neighbors. The iconic Hellenic Snackbar and Restaurant is just down the road and the hugely popular Lavender By the Bay, a lavender farm, is across the street. Seriously gorgeous architectural features. The beautifully-preserved widow’s walk has views of the Sound. And how many bed and breakfasts on the North Fork have a cupola? The porch has sawn spandrels (those Victorian curlicues that are often mistaken for gingerbread trim) and there’s a fireplace in every guest room--”the mantelpieces are works of art with hammered copper and glazed tile--” and in the two sitting rooms on the main floor with very fine woodwork throughout. “The staircase woodwork alone is jaw dropping,” says Germaise.“It’s the kind of craftsmanship from the 1800’s that you don’t see anymore.”

Why We Love It Coveted East Marion location. A few miles to the west, there’s Greenport; a few miles to the east, Orient Point and the Long Island Sound ferry. Hamlet business zoning. “People flip for that,” says Germaise, the listing agent. One of only four hamlet business-zoned properties in East Marion. “It allows for greater flexibility of usage than any other zoning.”

The grand manor house feel. Two of the five guest rooms have their own spacious terraces and all have en suite bathrooms, and so do the innkeeper’s quarters on the main floor. There are two sitting rooms on the main floor as well as a library and a dining room with a trayed mahogany ceiling. The combination of mod cons and historic details. The huge kitchen and eight bathrooms are renovated but many of the original details of H O L I D AY / N E W Y E A R 2 0 1 7

BY GRACE ALEXANDER the house have been retained. Three outbuildings. A large restored vintage barn on two stories; a pumphouse that the current owner converted into a tea house; and the original blacksmith’s cottage, which Germaise says could easily be transformed into a spa. The exquisite grounds.There are pathways and perennial gardens, including a meditation garden, a labyrinth of private sitting areas, and a sprawl of greensward bordered by preserved land. As a bonus, there’s room for a pool or a tennis court, rarities for a North Fork inn.

The Vision Thing Germaise says she’s had a great many inquiries from potential bed and breakfast owners. She thinks the property would suit “someone looking for a simpler life who knows the area and and who likes to entertain.” She adds, “It’s a great location and the place has twenty years of good will and good business practices behind it. The business is more or less a gift; we’ve priced it at fair market real estate value.” If you’re interested in taking a look, don’t wait. Germaise says that because the bed and breakfast is almost fully booked on weekends through the winter, “the big challenge is getting people in to see it.”

Welcome to the Holiday/New Year issue of North Fork Real Estate Showcase. It’s hard to believe that the holiday season is upon us so quickly. This is truly a time to sit back and be grateful for all of our blessings, and for being able to live in a place of such great beauty as the North Fork. Featured on this month’s front cover, Marianne Collins of Brown Harris Stevens presents an incomparable soundfront estate in Cutchogue. Set on a coveted Oregon Road bluff overlooking the Long Island Sound, this iconic 47-acre property is a once in a lifetime opportunity for a savvy buyer. In our end of year Marketwatch report, we take the pulse of the North Fork real estate scene. It turns out 2016 was one of the most active markets in years. Prices were up over 10% and inventories decreased markedly, especially in the under $600K range. Greenport Village and waterfront properties remain the hottest sectors. Well-priced listings sold quickly, often at or above their asking prices.With low inventories, rising prices and an emerging sellers market, 2017 is predicted to be another busy year on the North Fork. Also in this issue, be sure to check out Stella Hudson’s “North Fork Confidential,” for some great local winter getaways; Grace Alexander’s “Quintessentials Quintessence,” spotlighting an East Marion historic treasure now on the market; Heather Bryce’s “Deluxe Decadence,” featuring the awardwinning North Fork Table and Ruth Thomas’ “Best Deals,” for some truly great values here on the North Fork. Thanks for reading and see you again next issue!

“All of us at North Fork Real Estate Showcase wish our readers the very best of holiday seasons and a healthy New Year!”

DELUXE DECADENCE

WORLD CLASS DINING AT THE AWARD WINNING NORTH FORK TABLE

wo tables away a Chocolate-Caramel Tart arrives with a candle, accompanied by audible oohs and ahs from its recipient. Across the room a bottle of Veuve Clicquot is poured into the glasses of a table of six. The North Fork Table & Inn is the sort of place – a true destination – where people come to celebrate life’s milestones. The ambiance is warm and welcoming, the staff is accommodating and the food is world class. We are not the only diners to reach this conclusion. Among the restaurant’s many accolades is Food and Wine’s allocation of it as one of America’s best bed and breakfasts. The Zagat’s entry for 2015 is posted on the front porch, a grand plantation-style columned affair. The publication’s contributors give the eatery’s food a stellar score of 4.8.

seafood from the Peconic Bay and Long Island Sound, award-winning North Fork artisanal cheeses and, of course, many of the region’s acclaimed wines. We order from Chef Stephan Bogardus’s three-course prix fixe menu ($67) and accompanying wine flight ($20), a wonderfully decadent approach to fine dining. Our soup, a robust puree of Long Island cheese pumpkin, is poured over little puffs of pomegranate molasses and given a welcome crunch from roasted unshelled pumpkin seeds.

Claudia Fleming is part owner and a renowned pastry chef, having plied her trade at the likes of Gramercy Tavern before co-founding North Fork in 2005. Elle magazine calls her the Goddess of New American Pastry and lists her among such gastronomic luminaries as Lidia Bastianich, Madeleine Kamman and Alice Waters.

The hand-cut cavatelli is piled high with a generous hillock of shaved Burgundy truffles.We declare it the ultimate comfort food. Our biggest surprise was the seared Hudson Valley foie gras sandwiched with raw tuna and lit up with glazed daikon and radish syrup. Who’d a thought that this peculiar marriage of textures and flavors would be both so ethereal and explosive? After our first bite, my companion and I just looked at each other and burst out laughing. It was that good. And it was helped along by a luscious cream sherry from Spain.

The menu’s focus is seasonally inspired featuring locally grown biodynamic and organic produce,

BY HEATHER BRYCE

Farm was prepared in two ways: a roasted breast and a confit of pulled meat formed into a dazzling strudel. Did we mention it was drenched in a foie gras sauce?! And washed down with a mushroom and fig accented merlot from Southold’s Old Field winery. We are not tapioca aficionados (Did you know that tapioca is actually a starch extracted from the cassava root?), but our waitperson informed us that the version here won Fleming a James Beard Award. Wow. We’re converts, if not to our grandma’s tapioca to the creamy yet refreshing coconut ambrosia served here along with scoops of passion fruit sorbet and a ribbon of basil syrup. We couldn’t resist the coffee-toffee ice cream sandwich, a refined kind of sundae layered with roasted bananas and an inspired peanut butter whipped cream. OMG. When we talk to the very accessible foursome at the next table, they agree wholeheartedly that this place offers some of the best victuals found anywhere. And they ought to know. Guests at the upstairs inn, they are visiting from foodie mecca, Santa Cruz. One of the group works for Google. It’s nice to know that this outstanding eatery is on the Google map in more ways than one.

NORTH FORK CONFIDENTIAL DON’T TELL THE SUMMER PEOPLE...

ne of the secret joys of living in a summer resort year-round is, in a word, winter. On the North Fork, that’s when you can tour the wineries at leisure; enjoy the stretch limo-free-roads; dine at the area’s best restaurants, no need to book ahead; walk the beaches in solitude; ice skate in Greenport’s Mitchell Park; or just take in the moody atmosphere of the seaside. And in off-season, hotel prices drop when the mercury does. Here are our top picks for cold weather getaway spots: American Beech. Housed in a converted nineteenth century carriage house, this tiny inn in the thick of Greenport, on Stirling Square, has five ultra-modern suites, all located up a flight of stairs. Vibe-wise, think minimalist interiors, posh creature comforts (Frette bed linens, C.O. Bigelow amenities, your own private bicycle). The ground-floor restaurant serves casual impeccably-prepared farm-to-table classics and in winter, there’s often a crackling fire. americanbeech.com; 300 Main St., Greenport.

The Shinn Estate Farmhouse at Shinn Estate Vineyards is an 1880s homestead overlooking twenty acres of biodynamically-cultivated vineyards. Owned by chef David Page and his wife, viticulturist Barbara Shinn, the estate has a solar and wind-powered operated energy system that is unique among winery and inns on the North Fork. The couple lay it on at breakfast with granola and scones -- homemade, of course -- and frittatas from the resident hens. If you’re still hungry, you can retreat to your room to eat cookies and wine and cheese is served in the afternoon.You can also taste Shinn Estate’s superb wines in its tasting room and go for a self-guided ramble through the vineyard. shinnestatevineyards.com; 2000 Oregon Road, Mattituck.

ANOTHER STRONG SALES YEAR PREDICTED FOR 2017 THE PACE OF HOME SALES CONTINUES TO BE BRISK

he 2016 North Fork real estate market was very strong overall and for many realtors, it was their best year since 2008! With sales up, prices rising, and inventory very low, it was a seller’s market. There were multiple bids with properties selling at or above asking price. Greenport Village remained the hottest market. As we approach 2017, predictions are for another very strong sales year on the North Fork.

and there is some increased activity in South Jamesport. While prices are holding strong, I still believe the market is sitting in-between a buyer’s and seller’s market. As 2016 wraps up, the inventory has really slimmed down. Land has started to move and some new construction is popping up.” Kristen reflects, “With the election behind us, I don’t foresee any drastic real estate changes for 2017.”

Judi Desiderio of Town & Country Real Estate says, “2016 will go down as a transition year for our North Fork markets. T&C’s third quarter home sales report showed three sales between $2M-$3.5M, and the median home sale price jumped over 11%. T&C sold more homes and at greater price points than ever before.While the bulk of the sales remain below $500,000, there is a recognizable uptick at the $1M-$2M range. Commercial and investment opportunities are significant as is anything on the water or with open farmviews. Inventory on the North Fork is the lowest in years! We will see more builders as demand increases.” Judi predicts, “A steady ascend for the North Fork real estate market in 2017.”

Tom Scalia of Century 21 Albertson Realty says, “2016 was a very steady year with positive growth throughout the North Fork market. Albertson Realty’s market share increased by over 200% in 2016. It was our best year since 2008. The high end and lower end of the market was active while the middle of the market remains challenging. Median prices in both Southold and Riverhead Towns were up and that trend will likely continue through 2017. Inventory was down significantly and with demand on the rise, we saw the higher trend in sale prices. New construction is up from last year and I believe we will see the same in 2017.” Tom believes, “2017 will be very similar to 2016 in most respects.”

Tom Uhlinger of Douglas Elliman Real Estate says, “2016 seems reminiscent of 20042006, when the market was climbing towards its peak. Sales were most prevalent up to the $600,000 range. Greenport is undoubtedly the hottest market on the North Fork. Prices held firm, with some multiple bids and over ask selling prices. Inventory is now down, down, down!!! If inventory stays low, prices will be increasing in 2017. There was a slight uptick in new spec construction.” Tom predicts, “Similar positive movement in the first and second quarters.”

Kristen Rishe of North Fork Real Estate Inc. says, “The 2016 North Fork real estate market was very strong. Sales were up and we are ending the year on a very strong note. Homes under $500,000 were the most active segment. Greenport is very hot with rising prices. The Village of Orient is always strong 30

“The 2016 North Fork real estate market was very strong. Sales were up and we are ending the year on a very strong note.” - Kristen Rishe, North Fork Real Estate, Inc.

Presented by Beninati Associates

Marie Beninati of Beninati Associates says, “The pace of home sales in 2016 was and continues to be brisk. Overall our sales have been very good with a number of deals waiting to close. The entry point, under the $450,000 mark was the most active with the fastest turnover. Higherend properties over $1M had a slower turn. Prices continue to increase. The third quarter median price for Southold Town was $535,000, an increase of 4.9% over last year. Inventory is still low. It’s a seller’s market, without any doubt.” Marie believes, “Volume will slow down while prices will continue to increase, unless more sellers come into the marketplace. For sellers, this is a real opportunity to get the best return for your home. For buyers, you will get more house for your money the sooner you buy.” Jesse Stein and Gigi Martinez of Brown Harris Stevens say, “The North Fork real estate market performed nicely in 2016. Average sales price and median sales price rose, while days on the market fell due to tight inventory levels. Sales remained strong throughout 2016 compared with 2015. The most active segment of the market was

the $600K-$700K range. Southold saw the most sales in terms of units, while Greenport Village saw an uptick in units sold over the year before. There is more new construction on the North Fork.” Jesse and Gigi think, “2017 is a wait and see.With the new president-elect set to take office, it is unpredictable how the financial markets will perform. That performance will have a huge impact especially on the North Fork market as it is comprised of a large pool of second-home buyers.” Sheri Winter Clarry of The Corcoran Group says, “The 2016 North Fork real estate market was fast and furious! It was a great sales year. Buyers and sellers alike are both happy. Quite honestly, there isn’t one segment that doesn’t have activity! Prices are holding steady and it’s a great time to buy or sell, but there isn’t enough inventory! New construction and renovations fared very well this year!” Sheri thinks, “2017 is going to be an absolutely incredible year!” Donielle Cardinale of Daniel Gale Sotheby’s International Realty says, “The North Fork H O L I D AY / N E W Y E A R 2 0 1 7

real estate market was very busy in 2016. We saw multiple offers on most sales throughout the year. Properties priced well were selling very quickly, often at and above asking price. Entry level (up to $500,000) is almost always strong, but things were moving like wild fire all the way up to $1M. The Village of Greenport was an especially popular choice for weekend homebuyers. Prices were climbing and the market seems to be staying strong even as the holiday season begins. Overall inventory was low. We have very little brand new construction.” Donielle believes, “Based on the momentum that has continued to build regarding buyer demand and the shortage of available inventory, we should head into 2017 moving in that same direction.” 2016 was a very busy year for North Fork real estate. With inventory down, prices up, and demand high, the year ended on a very strong note. As 2017 lies just around the corner, an equally if not better year is anticipated. While the opportunities are still there, make this the year you invest in North Fork real estate and realize your dream destination.
