A home that sold for $7.6 million in Remsenburg on September 15 hit a benchmark for the hamlet, which hadn't seen a residential sale over $5 million in more than five years.

The 8,500-square-foot postmodern has five bedrooms and 7.5 baths and sits on 1.5 acres on Club Lane overlooking Moriches Bay. It should come as no surprise that the amenities in this manse are abundant—think formal and informal dining rooms, a waterside den, and a 1,600-square-foot master suite with a fireplace, private study, two baths and dressing rooms.

Listed with broker Marcia Altman at Brown Harris Stevens, this house was likely not designed with the wallflower in mind, given its 800-square-foot waterside entertainment/recreation pavilion with bath and laundry. Never mind its custom Roman edge gunite swimming pool with hot tub and nearby full-service exterior mahogany bar. Finalizing the touches of luxury are the private boat slip and three-car garage, both of which will be perfect for when those summer guests come knocking!
