A mere five minutes from Ditch Plains beach, this surf-inspired Montauk house at 48 South Federal Street was designed by Studio Robert McKinley, known for interiors with laid-back style, including the venerable Surf Lodge. This fetching four-bedroom, 4,000-square-foot getaway on a half-acre hilltop lot has a heated pool outside and lots of light and space indoors. It’s the kind of move-in ready summer spot that seems well worth its $1.95 million ask.
This fresh custom remodel of a classic Montauk style house has been featured in Architectural Digest, Vogue, Dwell, Remodelista, Curbed, Domino and Elle Decor. Well-curated details from every angle make the space stand out even in a community of photo-ready vacation homes. The house was built in 1975 and the redesign honors the mid-century Montauk beach-house vibe while white walls and light hardwood floors make it modern. A fireplace in the open living room provides a gathering spot and warmth on cool nights.
The kitchen and dining areas are fresh and classic, with jewel-like details and lots of natural wood and stone.
The home’s four tranquil bedrooms look like the perfect place to wake up on a summer day.
The home is not without a splash of color. Included are a large workout/meditation room and an attached pool house with a bar and a two-car garage.
Even the bathrooms are a study in considered design.
The expansive backyard boasts generous mahogany decking and a fire pit. The heated pool is designed and landscaped for privacy.
