A rare, architecturally-significant home has come to market in Fire Island.
. The three-bedroom/2.5-bathroom stunner is right on Sail Walk, which is both a short stroll from the island’s main ferry depot as well as directly facing the Atlantic Ocean and beach. The house, which is 2,200 square feet takes its name from its distinctive pyramid-shaped steel and glass wall that many have compared to
. The wall directly faces the sand and sea, with views over miles of protected dunescape, the bay, and the ocean. The property has an intriguing and illustrious history. Originally built in 1961, it was designed by notedfor a nephew of legendary financier JP Morgan. Some two decades later, it was parched by Paul Rudnick, the celebrated cinema and theater writer best-known for classic comedic hits such as “Sister Act,” “The Naked Truth” and “Jeffrey.
The home is set on the Fire Island’s secluded eastern end next to a national park, which affords it extreme privacy even when the island is at its busiest. “The beach here is only used by those in the immediate area,” explains Rice. “It is sparsely populated at the height of summer making it ideal for those looking for privacy.” Fully weatherized, the home is also suitable for winter escapes.
The Pyramid House comes with most of the furniture, which is common practice on Fire Island, particularly for architecturally-significant homes . Some of Rice’s stand-out pieces include two teak sofas designed by Peter Hvidt and Orla Mølgaard-Nielsen dating back to the late 1950s along with a 1960s rosewood bedroom set from Norway in the primary suite. Rice says that along with sheer pleasure, the home also provided sizable rental income during the summer high season.
