Informed by an aesthetic that spreads across centuries while celebrating the best of what's new, Matthews Lane joins the growing resume of highly styled, fully furnished Hampton estates by James Michael Howard, the renowned 2017 ICAA award winning designer, that exemplify coherency in the abstract world of architecture, interiors and the landscape that contain them. In collaboration with McAlpine-Tankersley Architecture and Landscape Details, the visionary Howard has just completed construction of a 7 bedroom residence that spans 11,600 SF on three levels of fully articulated living space that is now available for Summer 2018 rent. The head swiveling journey begins as you pass through the reception hall arriving in the dramatic great room, under 30 ft. beamed ceilings, which incorporates multiple seating areas, dining room and gallery, all warmed by a custom fireplace that anchors the room while walls of windows allow for an abundance of natural light. The state of the art, eat-in kitchen, with 10 seat breakfast area, is warmed by its own fireplace. Additional common spaces include the media room and an intimate living room. The 1st floor master wing with sitting area, fireplace and luxurious bath is joined upstairs by 4 guest suites including a secondary master with roof terrace. The bedrooms are purposely positioned so that none share common walls. An elevator connects all floors to the lower level with two more bedroom suites, a state-of-the-art theater with plush 16-person seating, bar and large recreation room with fireplace and custom billiards table. Geo-thermal heating, Control4 technology, Lutron lighting and a full audio/visual package add to the property's list of amenities. . The lush, manicured grounds behind stone walls, including mature specimen trees, espalier apples and verdant lawn, are enhanced by the heated pool and spa serviced by a covered cabana area that incorporates the pool house with full bath and dressing room, outdoor fireplace and built in kitchen which connects over broad stone patios to the two-car garage. Turn key to the extreme, Matthews Lane lies midway between village and ocean beaches off Bridgehampton's iconic Ocean Road and close to everything that makes the Hamptons a world class resort. And if at the end of the summer you can't bear to leave, you'll be happy to know that you can purchase this exquisite estate exactly as you see it and stay forever. Call for your personal tour today.
About Bridgehampton
Casual isn't a look in Bridgehampton. It's a life style.
Grab your shorts and a t-shirt, throw on the SPF 15, and let the day happen. The hardest work in Bridgehampton is deciding which fabulous white-sand ocean beach you want to go to: Sagg Main, W. Scott Cameron, or Mecox. On the way you'll see stretches of verdant farmland, including Channing Daughters, one of the South Fork's three superb vineyards.�Bridgehampton is about letting the relaxed, fun-loving side of yourself take over. It's about seeing yourself in different lights. If you need an actual manifestation of that, visit Dan Flavin's fluorescent installations at the Dia outpost in town. Or ...

It's about seeing yourself in different lights. If you need an actual manifestation of that, visit Dan Flavin's fluorescent installations at the Dia outpost in town. Or look at your kids' faces when you take them to the Children's Museum, with a quick stop at Candy Kitchen for home-made ice cream before returning home.�It's impossible to talk about Bridgehampton without mentioning the annual Hampton's Classic horse show, the Mercedes-Benz Polo Challenge, the chamber music festival, and the antique shows. But that said, imagine yourself there in great shape, just the right amount of tan, and in your comfortable jeans.
