Welcome to the May issue of North Fork Real Estate Showcase.With only a few weeks to go before the Memorial Day holiday is upon us, the rush is on to get ready for the summer. After a rather cool, rainy start to spring we are all ready for the warmth of the coming season. Activity at North Fork broker offices continues to run high, with demand for summer rentals and sales running ahead of this time last year. Seems like there is a trend to vacation closer to home, as foreign travel appears to be down because of security concerns abroad. Featured on this month’s front cover is a quintessential clapboard farmhouse tucked away on almost three beautiful acres in Southold (page 28). Complete with a large historic barn, this classic North Fork home has many vintage details intact and offers an incredible opportunity to make it your own getaway haven. Presented by Marie and Lee Beninati of Beninati Associates. Also in this issue, be sure to check out Ruth Thomas’ “Best Deals on the North Fork” for some great property values; Anne Halpin’s “Low Maintenance Landscaping” for unique ideas on creating a perfect low maintenance landscaping plan; “North Fork Insider”, our new feature in collaboration with the North Fork Promotion Council, introducing you to some of your North Fork neighbors and local business owners; our Broker Showcase of the month featuring top producers Barry Novick and Nancy Cervelli of Daniel Gale Sotheby’s International; as well as our Showcase Sales feature, highlighting some recently sold properties here on the North Fork. Thanks for reading and see you again next month!

Diane Arpaia North Fork Real Estate Inc. Cell: 631.902.1222

Dana Gabriel Douglas Elliman Real Estate Cell: 631.241.6976

Erica Guja Daniel Gale Sotheby’s International Realty Cell: 516.527.7589

Leah is blessed to call the North Fork her year-round home and for the opportunity to raise her children in the same hamlet that she was raised. She enjoys a deep-rooted connection to the community and environment, and has firsthand knowledge of the area and its’ unique history.

After enjoying childhood summers on the North Fork, Diane and her husband moved to Cutchogue full time 25 years ago. They raised their three sons here, becoming active in the community activities. She continues as a parent advocate and supporter of East End Disabilities.

Through traveling, Erica has gained insight on an array of lifestyles and realized how grateful she is to live where she works. Erica has clearly grown so passionate about the North Fork that she needed to find some place to become involved, and what better place than real estate!

Leah is an active member of the Mattituck Civic Association and proudly supports local organizations that promote environmental stewardship and sustainability.

After over 20 years of owning a print and marketing company, the business was sold and she was free to pursue her passion of decorative painting.

Dana comes to Douglas Elliman Real Estate with a strong background in sales and marketing. She started her sales career as a headhunter in Stratford, CT and later moved to Long Island to become the top producer at the largest national diversity recruitment publisher in the U.S. Now that she is living on the North Fork she is using her marketing and negotiating skills to build her career in real estate. Dana’s energy and attention to detail is an asset to her buyer clients.With her degree in business and marketing, she is able to help her sellers get the home sold.

Real Estate was preceded by twelve years of government service employed as a Senior Congressional Aide, where she came to realize her individual strengths as a listener/communicator and discovered that her passion lies with helping others to resolve problems to achieve desired outcomes. 12

She is a firm advocate of localism, and her knowledge and love for the uniqueness of all the North Fork towns, and all they have to offer, make her an agent that you can depend on to find or sell your own piece of paradise.

NORTH FORK INSIDER E L I Z A B E T H S W E I G A R T O F T H E T I M E S V I N TA G E I N G R E E N P O R T Q: How did you get to the North Fork? A: I moved to NYC when I was 18, for school—

of what I’m doing in my shop, just remembering.

Marymount Manhattan. I studied studio arts. While I’ve always loved vintage, my first love has always been art.

Q: The Times Vintage is pretty new. When did you open, and how did it come to be? A: We’ve been open about two and a half years.

Q: Did you discover the North Fork during college in NYC then? A: No. I’ve been coming to Shelter Island since

Three years ago Dad decided to invest in Greenport, because he believed it was a gem. When he showed me the building, I got to thinking… hmmm I have always loved Vintage & dreamed of opening a shop someday. Maybe this could be the place, maybe the time is now?

I was little. My Dad went to college in Southampton, so even though we lived in Texas we would vacation in Shelter Island. I loved it, I think because of him, that’s what inspired me to move out of Texas.

Q: Shelter Island from Texas. That must have been quite a contrast. Where in Texas are you from, and what was the most striking difference between there and here? A: I’m from Spring Texas, which is a suburb outside of Houston. Houston is huge! The big difference for me is that there’s nothing old in Spring. It’s just strip centers, malls. There’s no zoning and no preservation of anything. Look, I love my family and I love Texas, but I’ve always resonated with things of the past that have some history and character to them, which is one of the reasons I love it out here. Every place has a story; a past-life and people really appreciate it. That’s sort 22

The whole journey has brought us closer as father and daughter and I think we make a pretty good team.

Q: You mentioned you went to college for studio art. What’s your medium? A: My main medium was painting and drawing, but I’ve always loved creating and getting my hands on whatever I could make. My mom’s really creative too. These days I get my creative outlet in the store by doing the window and arranging stuff in the store. I’m beginning to see that as my medium, I’m seeing it differently than just merchandising.

Q: What do you mean by the store and the window are your medium now? A: It’s like a project, being given these supplies, now make something with it.

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

M AY 2 0 1 6

I’m surrounded by all this cool stuff, and it’s like: ‘How am I going to organize it to be aesthetically pleasing & not overwhelming to the customers?’ I get into a momentum that I can’t really explain, it’s all very experimental. I definitely see the store itself as a continuous work in progress; I’m never really satisfied with it.

Q: You stock a huge range of items. Are there any that you particularly like? A: I am mostly interested in and excited by the clothes. I look for unique things that will make somebody really stand out while wearing it. I don’t pay attention to labels so much; it’s more the quirkiness factor. Colors and patterns. I also love anything kitsch and a little wacky. That’s what excites me the most!

Q: What do you like about doing the windows so much? A: The window is when I feel like I’m really creating something artful. I think it’s because people are walking by it every day. Even if they don’t come in, if I can make a window that people notice and it reminds them of their childhood, or starts a conversation, sparks their interest. Right now I’m really excited about spring, so this next window will be very floral and festive.

LANDSCAPE SHOWCASE

L OW M A I N T E N A N C E L A N D S C A P I N G BY ANNE HALPIN

S

urrounding your home with a beautiful landscape not only integrates your home into its setting and enhances the view from your windows; studies have shown repeatedly that good landscaping also enhances property values. But keeping the landscape looking good throughout the season and year after year requires work. Savvy homeowners can take advantage of some strategies for reducing the amount of maintenance while still having a beautiful landscape. Whether you do it yourself or pay someone to do it for you, here are some ways to lighten the landscaping load. Try groundcovers. In areas that don’t get foot traffic, plant groundcovers instead of lawn. Groundcovers don’t need mowing, need less fertilizing and watering, and suffer fewer diseases than a lawn, and some of them offer the bonus of flowers. A few good groundcovers for sunny locations (and all of which are considered deer resistant) include ajuga, or bugleweed, bearberry, ceratostigma (which bears electric-blue flowers in late summer), lysimachia and creeping thyme. In a shady location your choices include wild ginger, pachysandra (a classic, very tough and adaptable), vinca (also called periwinkle, it bears violet flowers in early spring, but can spread where you don’t necessarily want it to in amenable conditions), bunchberry (which bears bright red berries), sweet woodruff (small white flowers in spring and 24

a gentle aromatic scent) and lamiastrum (some varieties have silvery leaves). Plant a screen instead of a hedge. Instead of a formal hedge that needs meticulous shearing to retain its clean lines and manicured look, you can define property lines with an informal screen of shrubs that don’t need pruning. If you’re looking for tall evergreens, Leyland cypress, junipers and hollies are some likely candidates. Arborvitae has long been a favorite among East End homeowners, but it has also become a favorite of deer, and is best planted on fenced properties where deer are excluded. If you don’t use your home in winter, a screen of flowering shrubs such as forsythia, bridalwreath spiraea, Japanese spiraea, lilacs or rhododendrons may do the trick. Or you can plant ornamental grasses, which are resilient and low in maintenance, needing only an annual cutting back. Some widely planted varieties, mostly miscanthus, have become problematic in our area, spreading seeds that grow into new plants where you don’t want them; consult a good local nursery or landscaping company for advice. Grow long-blooming perennials in beds and borders. If you love flowers and crave a perennial garden of flowers that return year after year, seek out varieties that are long blooming and don’t need frequent deadheading (removal of old blossoms) to look their best. Low maintenance

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

M AY 2 0 1 6

perennials for a sunny spot include Siberian iris, alliums (ornamental relatives of onions), purple coneflower (Echinacea), black-eyed Susan, peonies, yarrow (Achillea) and Russian sage (Perovskia). For a shady location, some good choices are heucheras (which have beautifully colored and patterned leaves), hellebores (which bloom in late winter), columbines (Aquilegia), astilbe, bleeding heart (Dicentra), ferns and if you don’t have deer, hostas (which offer foliage in many shades and combinations of green, gold and white). All these plants grow well in our area, and they’re readily available at local nurseries and from online sources. Grow resilient roses. If roses are your pleasure, planting the tough, carefree landscape roses that have hit the market in recent years, such as the Knockout roses, which bloom all summer, instead of finicky hybrid teas that need regular upkeep to look their best, is a real work saver. Landscape roses grow about 3 feet tall, are disease resistant, and produce flowers throughout summer and into fall. Taking a little time to strategize ways to decrease the time it takes to keep your landscape looking beautiful will let you enjoy more time at the beach, save some money, or just appreciate your beautiful surroundings.

PROPERTY SHOWCASE

WHITEWASHED CLAPBOARD FARMHOUSE RETREAT PRESENTED BY MARIE AND LEE BENINATI OF BENINATI ASSOCIATES

A QUICK LOOK

ucked away on almost three acres, is this 1901 white clapboard farmhouse, with an historic barn and landscaped gardens. The compound, in walking distance to the beach and town, is an ideal weekend escape for city dwellers to shed the stress, hustle and bustle of urban living.

Cover Property Price: $995K Southold 2.6 Acres 4 Beds 2 Baths 2,150 ± SF Home 1,200 ± SF Barn Web# 49080

The “comfort first” mantra, carried throughout the home and landscape, offers a light and airy dwelling for the contemporary family. Vintage details abound throughout the home - a writing nook, wide-plank wood floors, period moldings, a porcelain and cast iron claw foot tub. Yet through the use of a tight color palette the effect of a minimalist approach is achieved. Every wall is painted in grayish-white and complementary hues as the depth of color changes from morning light to evening. To allow the old and the antique to accommodate today’s living style, the kitchen ceiling was raised and the original wood beams left exposed. A bank of four windows were installed above the counter, with views across the garden to the property’s barn. Counter space was added by replacing a clunky fridge with four under-counter refrigerated drawers. The second level accommodates three bedrooms, bath and sitting room and carries the clean color palette throughout. An oversize built-in day bed converted a first floor bedroom into a combination den and guest quarters with a bath. The totality of the home, barn and property offer an opportunity to own an exquisite property with enormous upside possibilities where you can make your own mark on history! 28
