An enchanting stone castle in Montauk

[sliders_pack id=”19620″]

A friend of ours once asked us why we were planning a stone patio for our house. Why not brick pavers? We thought about it and answered, “Montauk is a stone kind of place.” It is–and no other house we know of exemplifies it better than this one at 34 Foxboro Road.

This rather amazing property was built in 1999 by Montauk builder Padden. Listing broker Jennifer Faga of Saunders says, “The entire home is hand placed stones accompanied by meandering driveway walls and gardens.” The stone walls with moongates and arches are really special, we think.

The house itself features high ceilings and attractive beams, and of course, more stone. Stone floors on the ground level feature radiant heat for cozy mornings. In all, there is 2,800 square feet of space, with 3 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, and a half acre of land, including two driveways.

Yes, the exterior does look a little fairytale like, as if Sleeping Beauty is inside, but it doesn’t seem to us to need that much work to bring it up to snuff. Asking price is $2.1 million, which sounds pretty reasonable in a hot market. Don’t be put off by needing to do a bit of work and you’ll find yourself the chatelaine of an amazing property.
