Transitional Southampton Village Oceanview Estate Sells For $14.6 Million

An 11,000-square-foot oceanview and pondview Southampton Village home that is the cover star of its architect’s monograph has sold for $14.56 million.

At 412 Beachcomber Lane, the transitional residence by Ike Kligerman Barkley’s Joel Barkley was inspired by the shingle-style mansions of the 19th century, according to the listing. It has six bedrooms and 7.5 bathrooms, an open floor plan and modern interiors. The 1.8-acre property down a gated drive comes with deeded ocean access.

The monograph is “The New Shingled House: Ike Kligerman Barkley,” published in 2015, featuring 14 houses by the prestigious architectural firm based in New York City and the San Fransisco Bay Area. The 412 Beachcomber Lane residence that graced the cover was designed for Manhattan couple Kristen and Matthew Stein and their four children, according to Architectural Digest.

The house has floor-to-ceiling glass doors that open the common areas to the patios, heated gunite saltwater pool, spa, pool house and sunken tennis court.

Architectural Digest’s David Coleman wrote: “The house’s airy, minimalist interiors, however, stand in strong contrast to the facade, especially the main floor, which feels as breezy as one of Richard Neutra’s Hollywood Hills creations. As a nod to the seaside scenery (the ocean is just a few hundred yards away), there is a theme of shipshape woodwork throughout, whether in the mitered angles that recall a boat’s tapered prow or the prevalent bald-cypress shiplap paneling. The precision and quality of the carpentry lend the house an almost Arts and Crafts feel—if Arts and Crafts got tired of being the dusky brunette and decided to go blonde.”

The property went on the market last year for $18 million, and the asking price was cut in September to $17 million. It was asking $16 million when the sale closed on May 20. Corcoran’s Susan Breitenbach had the listing.

Another big sale went down in Southampton Village recently, but with no public listing in sight. The sale date was June 18, according to The Real Estate Report Inc., and the seller was Nina Bryan Trust. The address is 30 North Main Street, and the final sales price was $12.58 million. The buyer was an anonymous limited liability company, HBMC 1 LLC.
