The house has an elegant open concept design allowing us to see ocean views from the kitchen, dining, and both master bedrooms. It looks like it’s a new construction with everything architected (eg, flow, views, wrap around deck, sliding doors. Etc) and interior designed (eg, shiplap, double size fridge, kitchen cabinet whisper close, cute shower tiles, etc). This is a hidden gem on Fire Island. ##### Jeffrey K.
