1 Squires Path, East Hampton, NY, 11937

A stunning and very special house. We call it Eloise House as it was the long time residence of Hilary Knight, the beloved illustrator of Eloise at the Plaza and other beloved storybooks. This is only the second time on the market since being built in 1967. A true beauty and one the of most warm and comfortable homes to come on the market. Minutes to East Hampton/ Sag Harbor/Wainscott and the beaches. Excellent location. Extensive remodel in 2017. When you think Hampton's charm the house is a haven filled with visual delights. The original ceilings are one of the first things you will admire. The house lives large with two roomy living rooms; one is a light filled sunroom overlooking the gardens. Three bedrooms upstairs with the largest offering a sitting room, bathroom with shower and tub and walk in closet. There is a private large upper deck off the second bedroom. The standout kitchen has soapstone countertops a a Viking stove and built in GEMonogram fridge. All new windows, on demand hot water heater, A/C and heat, and a soapstone wood stove in the fireplace. Host dinners in the gracious dining room accented with hand painted walls and barn doors that look like a Ralph Lauren photo shoot. The spacious yard has various "rooms" from the back yard off the dining room and sunroom overlooking the pond to the lagoon style heated salt water pool with a "folly" gazebo and the pool house with full bath and light filled space to spill over into. Another side courtyard set up to be an edible garden with raised beds for growing vegetables. There is so much to surprise and delight in this stunning property. The house is a rare find capturing all the charm you would imagine from it's artist owners. The house also has a solid rental income history.
