The Bouwerie: Meadow Lane Oceanfront

Description

For the first time in over a half century, this historic property is being offered for sale. Situated in the dunes along Southamptons Meadow Lane, lies "The Bouwerie." In 1930, Dr. Wesely Bowers commissioned famed New York architect Leroy P. Ward to design a house in the dunes. For the owners, Ward designed a three-and-a-half story Mediterranean villa overlooking the Atlantic Ocean and Shinnecock Bay. Sited on 6 Oceanfront acres, the Bouwerie is a timeless classic. The structure is authentic French provincial with immense details. This house was designed to accentuate both the Ocean and Bays beauty. The living room was placed on an angle so that water views were always evident. A grand two story staircase is the focal point of the interior. It is adorned with a delicate wrought-iron railing with pine steps. The ceilings and walls are ornamented with wooden beams everywhere one looks. The Provencal furnishings and detailing are consistent throughout the house.
