About this home

Nestled in the highly coveted Hay Beach enclave of Shelter Island, 43 Gardiners Bay Drive is a grand, ˜ 6,100-square-foot coastal estate that redefines luxury through the lens of effortless living. Set on a sprawling 0.92-acre parcel with captivating winter water views of Gardiners Bay, this masterfully designed home offers a seamless daily rhythm, beginning in the light-filled foyer where exquisite millwork meets glass doors that open to the expansive grounds. Designed for both high-end entertaining and absolute ease, the flowing main level connects a stately firelit living room to a magnificent chef's kitchen—complete with a professional cooktop, a walk-in pantry, and dual dishwashers for effortless cleanup—before transitioning outside to a resort-style pool featuring an electric safety cover and direct cabana-bath access. A sanctuary of personal wellness, the second floor boasts a marble-clad primary suite with a private water-view office overlooking the bay, alongside three generous guest rooms and two laundry rooms configured for ultimate convenience. Below, the fully finished lower level serves as a private wellness and entertainment pavilion, featuring a home gym, media room, and a temperature-controlled wine cellar, balanced by an abundant bulk-provisioning storage room and an attached garage for your water toys. Situated just steps from the pristine sands of Menhaden Lane Beach and moments from the island’s premier marinas, boutiques, and acclaimed dining, this estate offers a turnkey, worry-free island lifestyle where every modern luxury is already perfectly in place.
