6 Bay Inlet Road

6 Bay Inlet Road sits in the Springs subarea of East Hampton, in Suffolk County, on a third of an acre. Compass lists it as a residential lease rather than a sale, with terms priced separately for October, November and December and a short term rate alongside them, and it has carried the listing since February of 2018. The record marks the property waterfront and logs water access as true, and the amenity list carries both beach rights and docking rights. The description puts the beach at the end of a leisurely stroll. Pets are allowed. The record logs it as near neither a train station nor the jitney bus line. Springs School, the district's PK through 8, is a little over two miles off.

Two stories, 2,454 square feet, five bedrooms, three full baths and a half. The house went up in 1975 in a contemporary style and has been renovated since, and the record still logs it as existing rather than new construction. One fireplace, midcentury by the listing's own account. Hardwood and tile run underfoot, there is a great room and a breakfast area, and the listing calls the kitchen fully stocked. The furniture is modern and designer. Central air and heat, town water, linens supplied, and an outdoor shower for the walk back from the sand. The windows carry Swan Pond and Gardiner's Bay. Compass files the whole thing under a title of its own: East Hampton Modern With Pool and Water Views.

A new mahogany deck. An in ground heated saltwater pool measures forty feet by twenty, and there is a large in ground hot tub. The sunsets the listing sells are waterfront ones, taken from the deck. There is a Sonos system, the televisions are smart, cable and satellite are wired in, and a charger that will take a Tesla is already installed. Seven bikes, four paddleboards and two kayaks come with the house. That is not a specification so much as an instruction, and it is the plainest thing the listing says about how a day here is meant to go.
