18 Cowhill Lane, Wainscott, NY 11937

Right in the heart of Wainscott Village, this turnkey 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath home offers something increasingly hard to find in the Hamptons: a great house in a location that makes life genuinely easy. About a mile to the ocean and just moments from Wainscott Village, you can leave the car in the garage more often than you might expect.

Goldberg's for breakfast, Wainscott Main Wine & Spirits, the Seafood Shop, local farm stands, and everyday necessities are all close by. The Hampton Jitney stop is nearby as well, making weekends from the city considerably easier. The house itself is comfortable, well laid out, and ready to go.

No major project list, no waiting two summers to finally enjoy the place. With four bedrooms and three and a half baths, there's plenty of room for family and guests without having more house than you need. Outside, a heated pool sits within nicely landscaped grounds that offer privacy while still keeping you connected to the village.

A two-car garage adds the kind of practical space that quickly fills up with bikes, beach gear, paddleboards and all the other things nobody mentions in a listing description. And while Wainscott is the home base, you're well positioned between East Hampton and Bridgehampton, with Sag Harbor an easy drive and Montauk down the road when the mood strikes.

Turnkey, convenient, close to the ocean, and exceptionally well located. This is a house you can buy on Friday and start enjoying on Saturday. In the Hamptons, that counts for quite a lot.
