Property Details

Located in the heart of East Hampton's coveted Estate Section, 15 Jones Road is a true architectural gem steeped in history. Originally built in 1912 by Mary B. Talmage, who also designed the home, this residence perfectly captures the essence of the Original Summer Colony. One of the property's most striking features is its panoramic western-facing views. The Mary B. Talmage Cottage offers a stunning vantage point overlooking Lily Pond, wide open fields, and, from the second and third floor, glimpses of the Atlantic Ocean. Set on two private acres just moments from Georgica Beach, the home combines timeless charm with modern functionality. A comprehensive renovation in 2001 preserved its historic character, updated mechanical systems, and even rebuilt the foundation. The residence includes six bedrooms and five and a half bathrooms. Most ground-floor rooms open onto rolling lawns offering both privacy and sweeping views of the sky. There are reeds on a portion of the property that can be removed with a permit. This would open up view across Lily Pond from the first floor and grounds. Historic outbuildings on the property present exciting potential for renovation and adaptive reuse. Additionally, a permit for an 18' x 36' pool has already been approved.
