This traditional style two-story family home is situated on the quiet outskirts of Southampton.

This home, completed in 2017, was inspired by the Frank Lloyd Wright Robie House in Chicago and uses linear design materials including large overhangs and a shallow sloped hip roof. The exterior materials feature a norman style brick with colored mortar, tooled horizontal joints, and filled vertical joints, as well as long pieces of Indiana split-faced limestone in varying heights. The siding and fascia are wire-brushed African mahogany with a smooth mahogany reveal between boards. The windows are full height to the bottom of the stuccoed soffits that also feature hidden ventilation. The motor court features a combination of exposed aggregate and sawcut concrete while the entry steps are porcelain tile. The magnificent white oak and glass entry system continues the horizontal linear theme. The metal edges on the roof conceal gutters while downspouts are hidden inside the structure leaving a clean roofline. The house is situated on a hill that rolls toward the lake and features a walkout lower level giving it a two story appearance in the rear. The 12’ high dining room windows in the center of the house are framed in African mahogany with a larger overhang. The large kitchen window and floor-to-ceiling windows in the master bedroom and sitting room, tucked beneath the ample overhangs, complete the look.

The interior design concept involves accentuating the villa’s breath-taking sea views throughout the beautiful four floor levels. The living area and supporting rooms are situated on the bottom two floor levels. While the master bedroom and other guest rooms are located on the top two floors. There is a hint of classic and modern interlude encompassed with touches of blue intertwined complimenting the picturesque sea views from every window. The interior layout has been designed as an open floor layout to illuminate the villa with natural light and create a luxurious Zen ambience.

This delightful couple purchased this home with renovation in mind. It was situated in an ideal location, but required a serious update bringing modernization while keeping it’s 1940’s period charm. They asked us to design an elegant Master Suite, complete with a bedroom, master closet and elegant bathroom. While we make every attempt to maintain original walls and floors, this renovation required complete gutting of two bedrooms and closets to open the space and allow for all they wanted. In this process we were able to bring uneven floors and walls into level allowing for great end results. The finishing touches on this bathroom included custom white painted vanity and make-up table with White Carrara Marble countertops and a custom tile floor design using Carrara Marble tile. A free-standing tub and bridge faucets/ tub spout upped the game on a modern take on an old-world plumbing fixture. The glass shower completes this sophisticated space, which gives this master bath a modern twist on traditional.

The entire townhouse was devastatingly flood–damaged by an upper floor washing machine malfunction. The homeowners decided to take advantage of this situation to not only repair the home, but also to make some major space updates. The townhome was completely gutted to the studs throughout all three levels. The main living level was completely reconfigured with walls removed and spaces reimagined. The kitchen and 4 bathrooms were fully renovated. All flooring, trim, tile, fixtures, hardware, countertops, lighting and window treatments were redesigned. All interior elements designed and specified by A.HICKMAN Design.
