Tucked away on a serene, gated 4.5-acre historic estate in the heart of Bridgehampton, Hayground House Cottage offers a private, peaceful retreat surrounded by majestic 200-year-old trees. This charming mid-century A-frame 2 bedroom 1 bath cottage sits on the grounds of the historic Hayground House, originally built in 1870 and once owned by the Topping and Rose families-namesakes of the nearby Topping Rose House Restaurant and Inn. After remaining in one family for over 70 years, the estate was thoughtfully renovated by the current owner in 2023. Originally built in 1940, the Cottage features soaring beamed ceilings and whitewashed knotty-pine walls and floors, creating a cozy yet airy atmosphere. Enjoy your morning coffee on the sunlit front porch, and unwind at sunset on the shaded back porch overlooking your own private garden. Hayground Cottage features one bedroom with antique wrought-iron queen bed, ample closets, a full bath with shower, washer & dryer and full kitchen with stainless GE Café gas range with griddle and brand new stainless Frigidaire refrigerator with icemaker. A second full bedroom is accessed from the back porch and can also be used as an office. Air-conditioned in summer; cozily gas-heated in winter, the Cottage offers complete privacy with its own driveway off the main circular driveway, and trees separating it from the main house. The Cottage is fully furnished including an 1866 upright Steinway piano with an iconic Broadway history, so it's the perfect place to relax, read a novel, write a novel, or compose a new musical or a symphony. A large flat-screen TV with AppleTV graces the living room wall. A unique bonus feature: an attached yoga/art studio accessible from the back porch is ideal for creativity, relaxation, or remote work and is fully air-conditioned and heated. The Cottage is less than a mile from the center of Bridgehampton, so even in summer traffic it's minutes away to dine at Pierre's, Almond, Dopo Il Ponte, Bobby Van's, Candy Kitchen, Sip N' Soda, Armin & Judy...and of course Topping Rose House. The Bridgehampton Commons is also close with stores ranging from Citarella, King Kullen and Staples, to Williams-Sonoma, Barnes & Noble and The Gap. Flying Point Beach is under 3 miles away. High-speed FIOS WIFI is included in rent. Gas and electric are separately billed. $6,500 per month - year round. Some photos digitally rendered
