An Amagansett home by noted modern architect Charles Gwathmey, known for his 1992 renovation of the Guggenheim Museum, is on the market with a new agent and price. The five-bedroom home is asking $4.85 million.
This two-bedroom, one-bathroom cottage is minutes from the ocean and Shinnecock Bay, says listing agent Dianne Tupper of Coldwell Banker Trading Places.
The offer is accepted, the contract has been signed and the closing date is scheduled. One of the last steps before a home purchase is complete is the walk-through, which is almost always done shortly before the closing.
The two-story unit features an open floor plan, including a living room with a vaulted ceiling and wood-burning fireplace, and a kitchen with a breakfast bar.
With recent new construction, downtown enhancement projects and progress within the school district, Roosevelt is "a different community from what it used to be," says Town of Hempstead councilwoman Dorothy Goosby.
This 4,047-square-foot home was going to be the Lieb's forever home, says owner Lauren Lieb. They did a gut renovation and even planted 150 trees on the perimeter of the property for privacy.
