A Private Dunes Retreat in Amagansett Behind a charming wooden gate, on a quiet Amagansett Dunes lane, lies a world of its own, just a short distance from the ocean beach. At the heart of the property, a saltwater gunite pool is bordered by a bluestone patio on one side and lushly landscaped lawn on the other, evoking a private resort more than a backyard. Dual heating systems extend the swimming season of this 25' x 15' pool to six months or more. To the side of the house, an oversized enclosed outdoor shower, multiple beach-gear sheds, and a full-house generator handle the practical side of Hamptons living. Then comes the real magic: at the back of the property, a 2.5-acre dune preserve unfolds in complete privacy, with no neighbors in sight. At nightfall, the star-filled sky overhead is something guests often call unforgettable. Inside, the home is thoughtfully designed as an "upside-down" house, placing main living spaces upstairs to capture sweeping dune views from a wraparound porch off the open-concept great room with fireplace, flowing easily from a light-filled, renovated kitchen to a private outdoor space for grilling and entertaining. The primary suite occupies the second floor with an en-suite bath and radiant heat. Downstairs, antique brick floors with radiant heat warm two additional bedrooms and a full bath, along with a wood-burning stove, a kitchenette, laundry room, and a flexible bonus room currently used as an office. Ample space remains to expand to a fourth bedroom and third bath, if desired. Turnkey and move-in ready - a rare combination of true privacy, resort-style outdoor living, and proximity to the ocean, almost impossible to find together in the Dunes.

The Hamptons, located between East Hampton Village and Montauk Point, is a coastal and resort Montauk neighborhood with ocean beaches and dune-backed bluffs. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Montauk Highway at South Elmwood Avenue, where surf shops, seafood counters, and low-key galleries set the pace. Iconic pillars include The Surf Lodge, Gosman’s Dock, and the Montauk Point Lighthouse. Cedar-shingled cottages and modern beach houses sit behind wind-shaped hedges and sandy lanes. Days track the shoreline from Ditch Plains to the rocky edges near the Point. Marinas, farm stands, and seasonal markets keep the calendar tied to the water and fields.
