First time ever for sale, this is a once in a lifetime opportunity to purchase one of the original historic Devon Colony mansions. "The Big House", as it was referred to by the family that constructed it, was built in 1909 by William S. Rowe. He along with Richmond Levering and William C. Procter (of Procter & Gamble) formed the Gardiners Bay Company and purchased 2,000 acres, the so called "Amagansett Highlands", spanning from Fresh Pond to Napeague's The Promised Land. They paved roads, built a dedicated power plant (recognized today by the bayfront tall black chimney tower), constructed homes, bath houses and a casino that now lives on as the Devon Yacht Club. The property today, still owned by the same family 4 generations later, is a total of 4 acres, including a 17 bedroom, 13,000 square foot main house, a separate legal 3 bedroom guest house, a Har Tru Tennis Court, Gunite swimming pool and spa, and protected woodland reserve. The grand scale of the living spaces in the main house has a timeless appeal, ideal for the largest of gatherings, walled with French doors opening up to a huge terrace overlooking the rolling lawns that cascade down into the distance. Conjuring the spirit of old-world Hamptons of yesteryear, the estate is a true time capsule with antique flooring, plaster walls, as well as original light fixtures and furniture designed by Gustav Stickley. This is truly a rare opportunity to own and restore one of Amagansett's iconic treasures.
