PURE PROPERTY

Harvest

A timeless historical East Hampton cottage dating back to the 1700s with legacies that include Abraham Baker, Frank Lovejoy and Jacqueline Bouvier has just been listed by Gary DePersia of Corcoran. South of the Highway, a landmark piece of land enables a smart buyer to create a private haven with existing approvals for two residences on the property—preserve the historic 1752 cottage and build another house. The converted barn once housed Bouvier’s ponies as well as the herd from the Riding Club of East Hampton. The 4-bedroom home has undergone a thorough restoration, with all the original architectural details maintained, including the wide-planked floors. The chef’s kitchen has a Violetta marble farm sink, Bertazzoni heritage gas oven and Sub-Zero refrigerator, while the library features an original fireplace. The primary bedroom suite includes the Riding Club wood locker doors that were carefully re-appropriated, original refurbished entry doors and exposed beams, all lending nostalgic charm. A pristine white pebble driveway, intimate courtyards and
