Bromley-Designed Hamptons Home Lists for $7.375M
A Hamptons home, designed by renowned architect R. Scott Bromley, has hit the market. The 4-bedroom, 4.5-bathroom house in Georgica Estates is listed for $7.375 million. It showcases Bromley's signature style, with unexpected elements and natural materials.
The house at 4 Baiting Hollow Road, listed by Esteban Gomez and Lori Schiaffino of Compass, is a testament to Bromley's influence. It features interlocking cedar and glass boxes, a grand two-story living area, and a separate dining room. The showstopper is a grid of glass windows with cedar two-by-fours and floorboards set at a 45-degree angle.
Bathrooms bear Gifford's touch, with open showers and peekaboo windows. The house also boasts a catwalk and peephole window, adding to its unique charm. Nestled boxes with curved walls encircle large tables, and private balconies offer upstairs retreats. Outside, a pool, decks, garage, office, basement, and shed complete the property.
Bromley, known for his beach houses, began building vacation homes in the Hamptons before co-designing Studio 54 in 1977. This house, however, is a departure from his earlier works, with clean lines and unexpected elements. His first Hamptons house, now unrecognizable after a 2005 renovation, set the stage for his distinctive style.
The house at 4 Baiting Hollow Road, listed for $7.375 million, offers a unique blend of Bromley's design aesthetic and unexpected elements. Its location in the posh Georgica Estates, near East Hampton Main Beach, The Hedges Inn, and Red Horse Market, adds to its allure. Despite the original purchasers' identities remaining unknown, the house's architectural legacy is clear.
