East Hampton North has spacious properties and a peaceful atmosphere near Long Island’s south shore. The community is minutes from East Hampton Village’s active main street but maintains a quiet feel. Located in The Hamptons, one of Long Island’s most affluent regions, the area features multi-million-dollar homes with high-end amenities and easy beach access.
The community offers a quiet home base while still being close to East Hampton shopping. “People come here for proximity to town,” says Diane Shifman, a local real estate expert with Compass who has lived in the area for around 20 years. “The streets don’t have as much tree cover compared to nearby communities like Northwest Harbor, but you are closer to the village and it’s a bit quieter than being right in town.” Houses here sit on spacious lots, some well over an acre, and mature trees and fences provide privacy between neighbors. While some homes date back to the early 20th century, most were built after 1970, with charming coastal cottages, Colonial Revivals and Craftsman-style bungalows lining the streets. Single-family homes start at around $1.1 million and reach $7.7 million, while condos and townhouses range from the upper $800,000s to about $2.3 million.
“About half the people who own here are year-round residents, and half just live here in the summer,” Shifman says. “Our population nearly doubles in the summer.” The warmer months bring larger crowds and more tourists, while winter offers a secluded, quiet feel.
