This milestone in Hamptons architecture was designed by the legendary Francis Burrall Hoffman Jr. and constructed for Marjorie Woodhouse by her parents, Lorenzo and Mary Woodhouse, who were largely responsible for underwriting the East Hampton Library (1912), the restoration of Clinton Academy (1921), and establishing Guild Hall (1931). A magnificent 75-foot-long Elizabethan-styled salon with a 40-foot vaulted ceiling is the centerpiece of the residence. In its early years, the salon had a stage used for performances which gave rise to the naming of the home as the "Playhouse." Off the salon are 5 bedrooms, 5 baths, and a renovated kitchen. A beautiful copper-clad, glass conservatory with bluestone flooring has recently been added off the kitchen. The conservatory links the back terrace and grounds with the entire ground floor -- gracefully expanding the flexibility and flow of the living/entertaining, indoor/outdoor areas of the home. The grounds feature a heated gunite pool, a fountain, and nearly 3+/- acres of exquisitely designed mature landscaping and overwhelmingly beautiful specimen trees. In 2020, the Playhouse won a prestigious AIA design award for the glassed conservatory addition. Not since 1958 has this historic landmark been available for sale, which is considered by many to be one of the most significant structures in East Hampton's fabled history. Acres of reserve land are on the Southern border with Nature Trails and the Wildlife Sanctuary. Huntting Lane intersects with Main Street, meaning that village shops, museums, and restaurants are just a stroll away. On the other end is Egypt Lane that takes you to Maidstone, one of the oldest links golf courses in the world, and Atlantic Beach, one of the top 10 in the country.
