24 On The Bluff

Nestled in a secluded North Haven setting, this extraordinary home offers panoramic western sunset views across pristine Noyac Bay to Shelter Island, while ensuring complete privacy on its two-acre wooded lot. Designed in close collaboration between renowned architect William Reese and the homeowners, the residence draws inspiration from modernist icons such as Tadao Ando and Rudolf Schindler. The architecture is a study in refined simplicity, using just four elemental materials-concrete, steel, glass, and mahogany-to create a strikingly harmonious design. Clean lines and geometric forms are complemented by a restrained neutral palette that enhances the home's tranquil atmosphere and supports a modern lifestyle seamlessly integrating the outdoors, bay breeze and sunsets. With a flowing open floor plan, the interiors seamlessly connect while preserving a surprising degree of privacy. The gracious primary suite, accessed by a private stairway, includes a waterfront deck and private second living room. Four additional ensuite bedrooms and two extra baths accommodate family and guests with ease. Amenities abound: a fully equipped gym, heated pool, sauna, tennis court, private beach access via stairway, and boat mooring. Outside, five monumental concrete walls extend beyond the home's footprint, embracing the rich mahogany frame and anchoring the residence within the natural landscape. The result is a structure that feels at once bold and serene-an environment that must be experienced to be truly appreciated. Expandable to over 8,000 sq. ft., this precision-crafted modern dream home has been featured in Metropolitan Home Magazine and Elle Decor.
