Gwathmey-designed mansion in Sagaponack lists for $28M

Another opportunity to snag a Hamptons home designed by legendary architect Charles Gwathmey has popped up in Sagaponack.

The curved mansion at 733 Daniels Lane hit the market last weekend asking $27.9 million, Mansion Global first reported. The property last traded hands in 2014 for $20 million.

Gwathmey designed the seven-bedroom, 8,000-square-foot home in 2005, four years before his death, according to Mansion Global. The home has several distinctive architectural features, such as curved walls, an arched roof and an interior courtyard.

The property sits on 2.5 acres along with a heated gunite pool with spa, a pool house with another curved roof and a tennis court. Inside the mansion is a floor-to-ceiling fireplace, glass block hallways, a spiral staircase as well as a library, gym, media room and two wine cellars.

Corcoran’s Susan Breitenbach has the listing.

“Charles Gwathmey is an icon in himself,” Breitenbach told Mansion Global. “You go in and you know it’s one of his houses — I’m still in awe when I walk in. …It’s really more art than property.”

The home is among a handful of properties designed by Gwathmey, who is perhaps best known for his work on the renovation of the Guggenheim Museum in 1992.

In April, a Gwathmey-designed Amagansett home listed for $9.3 million. The restored modernist home was built in the late 1970s and was purchased in 2014 for $4.25 million.

In January 2020, another Amagansett home designed by Gwathmey sold for $3.5 million, less than half of its 2017 asking price. The 1,900-square-foot home includes five bedrooms, a tennis court, a pool and a roof deck from which residents and their guests can view the ocean.
