A waterfront North Haven home fronting Sag Harbor Bay and facing Mashomack Point and the sunrise has sold for $14 million.

At 48 Forest Road, the five-bedroom New England cape high on a terraced bluff has been meticulously renovated and expanded since its original build in the 1940s, according to the listing from Modlin Group Hamptons.

Each bedroom has views of the harbor, as do the living and dining rooms. Three bedrooms are on the main level while a guest suite and the primary suite, with a sitting area, office, walk-in closet and an expansive bathroom, are upstairs.

The waterside heated gunite pool has a 50-foot lap lane set among hand-laid stone terraces.

The property is approximately 1.5 acres and bulkheaded, with a boathouse cabana that could not be replicated today, according to the listing. Below the bulkhead is a 200-foot stretch of sandy beach and a 240-foot dock out to deep water that can accommodate a large boat and a seaplane.

Christopher Covert and Bérengère Gabet of Modlin Group Hamptons had the listing.

“48 Forest is a very special property in that the home is of a bygone era, a true classic cottage that has been incredibly well kept and updated over time, and maintains a charming nautical vibe without being cliche,” Covert said. “It is great that a buyer came in and appreciates it for what it is and will not be tearing it down. There are very, very few of these left.”

The deal closed on October 20, according to Suffolk Vision Inc., which reported the seller is 48 Forest LLC and the new owner is ZEK Holdings 48 Forest Road LLC.
