Set on Montauk’s highest point, this new-age home has tree-top views all the way to the ocean. It’s surrounded on all sides by leafy greenery so you can take a dip in that salt-water pool in complete privacy, or hide away on the secret hanging basket chair under the maple tree. Make the most of the peaceful outdoors at the barbecue area – Montauk’s fresh seafood served on the marble dining table feels like a particularly lavish affair. Inside, the motif is wood, white and pebble-grey, giving a natural feel to the organic fabrics throughout. Surfboards above the bed are a reminder that you’re a short drive from the impressive Atlantic waves, and there’s storage for your own boards right next to the huge outdoor shower. Sliding doors in the bedrooms connect seamlessly to the lush outdoors where a wrap-around balcony has even more outdoor seating overlooking that canopy view. Need to stock up on supplies? No sweat, just hop in the car for a quick 5-minute drive to the village centre where you’ll find plenty of shops and restaurants on top of Montauk’s historical attractions.
