Constructed during the Gold Coast era "Apple Trees" reflects the magnificence of the time when wealthy New York City businessmen flocked to Long Island's north shore to build their estates. With stately architectural elements, tall ceilings, mullioned windows and grandly proportioned rooms, the home is a distinguished memento of that fabled period. Sited on 14+ acres with a long, winding drive, the home was built as a wedding present for Junius Spencer Morgan, son of financier, J.P. Morgan. The Tudor Revival estate by architect, Roger H. Bullard, has a classic exterior of stucco with ornamental brickwork, gables, and a slate roof. Bullard later went on to design the Maidstone Club in East Hampton and the Morgan's next home, 'Salutation.' The sprawling grounds are filled with mature rhododendron, specimen trees and meticulously pruned shrubbery. Outdoor amenities include a Har-Tru tennis court, a Putting Green, heated Gunite Pool with Pool House plus a 4-car Garage with Caretaker's residence and a Barn. 'Apple Trees' is an opportunity to own a piece of history still imbued with the character of the past improved with updates for today's lifestyle. Wide moldings, fine woodwork and oversized fireplaces showcase the ambiance carefully honored in every room. Entertaining rooms each have distinctive features; the airy Living Room with picture frame molding, a Study paneled in mahogany, the formal Dining Room with classic built-in china cabinets and a long Sun Room with brick flooring. The spacious Game Room is a place to gather with a cozy sitting area around the fireplace, a dining area, kitchenette and plenty of room for the pool table and more. A unique temperature controlled Wine Room is a wonderful amenity. The updated Kitchen provides a long center island perfect for food prep or baking, an abundance of storage, Sub-Zero refrigerator and freezer, gas cooking and access to Laundry and the Greenhouse. The Primary Bedroom on the 2nd floor is a large, corner room with a fireplace overlooking the vast lawns.
