The project
Christopher Jeffrey Architects designed this house on a sloping 1.2-acre wooded site in the Hither Hills area of Montauk, which falls over 20 feet towards ocean views. The client wanted the calm of the forest close to the beach, within tight zoning setbacks.
Two shifted gabled volumes sit on concrete walls built into the slope, holding five bedrooms, a pool and outdoor living space. Inside, exposed timber frames, full-height glazing and cedar shingles bring warmth and views of the trees. It was completed in 2019.
