A newly built cedar-shingled modern on Gardiners Bay has sold for $6.74 million.

On 1.1 acres in Northwest Woods at 37 Milina Drive, the house is high on a bluff and set back, while a private staircase leads to the sandy beach. The 7,454-square-foot residence by Spring Architecture + Design has seven bedrooms, six full bathrooms and two half-baths, and a mind toward seamless indoor-outdoor living.

Among the high-end materials used are imported floor-to-ceiling glass windows, Alaskan yellow cedar siding, Brazilian hardwood decking, and 7-inch engineered white oak flooring.

The first floor includes a great room with a linear gas fireplace, a dining room, a chef’s kitchen, a junior master suite, a study, a laundry room and a powder room. The main spaces all look out over the exterior living spaces, pool and bay. On the second floor, find the master suite and three more en-suite waterside bedrooms.

The property was co-listed with Holly Rubenstein of Saunders & Associates and James Petrie and Christian Lipp of Compass.
