A Labor of Love at 54 Henry Street, Southampton Village, Now In Contract

The Wines family knows the quiet charm and character of Henry Street, in this tree-lined neighborhood in Southampton Village firsthand.  In fact, John Wines and his family have contributed to this peaceful community ambiance for generations. John grew up just up the road, and it was where he raised his family. Today, the Wines Team, John, Bill, and Marina, have come full circle with their luxurious new construction—54 Henry Street, Southampton Village (Now in contract)—a stunning, heartfelt snapshot of easy coastal living in Southampton Village.

The vision and commitment to quality deliver an enduring example of luxury living in Southampton Village—”a labor of love” born from a genuine love for this neighborhood. 

On a beautiful day, from the wraparound mahogany deck, I hear only birds chirping. The absence of cars is notable owing to the enviable location, which is not a thru street but still has sidewalks that lead to the vibrant heart of Southampton Village. 

Built in kind with neighboring homes clad in classic cedar-shake siding style, the new construction, contemporary farmhouse home has all the Hamptons hallmarks. Loaded with luxurious details that enrich the senses now and for years to come.

Truly, no corners have been cut or even folded. Beyond, as an added highlight, the home remains ready for customization. Having interviewed designers before, I know how exciting it is for them to work with a brand-new, state-of-the-art canvas. The lucky buyers can really make this space their own, with every detail curated and customized to their discerning taste and lifestyle. 

Given the freedom to assemble the right team, and with the Wines Team’s careful coordination, the new construction at 54 Henry brings together a Hamptons Dream team of design, construction, and detail.  “Spec builds are more concerned with margins—our singular focus is on the home—not just now but 20 years from now.”

As we walk the property, John’s pride is on full display. Each detail is elevated and any real estate agent would love to share these specs with their buyers.

While impressive, the individual specs pale in comparison to the project as a whole. In fact, one of the first things John told me about the 54 Henry is that “this is a custom build, not a spec build.” John elaborates, “Our standards were as high as they could have been for this project. If we couldn’t deliver a home worthy of this location, we were just not going to do it.”

Thoughtful and intentional designs, helmed by Bill and Marina, are all around and track perfectly with today’s trends. The sunny home office, poolside egress to the lower level with full wet bar and laundry for after the beach. The lush evergreen perimeter hedges are overseen by Airys Design Landscaping for yearlong color and privacy. 

The all-day sunlight over the pool is an immediate luxury. Much of the home’s layout has been skillfully engineered to maximize natural light, aided by the almost 100% clearance. “Starting with the location of the home, everything was planned around capturing the stunning Southern exposure. All day sun is an unending luxury.”

The love and passion that went into the home are evident and clearly born from a lifelong appreciation for Southampton Village. Congratulations to the lucky new owners and to the Wines Team for bringing such a beautiful home to the Hamptons community.
