Jamesport Estate List Includes Working Tractor

A newly completed 11.4-acre estate in Jamesport is now on the market for $5.495 million. The property includes a custom-built four-bedroom residence, a separate pool house, and a fully operational tractor. The listing, handled by Ed Gaetjens of Saunders & Associates, emphasizes that the estate is ready for immediate use rather than requiring years of construction.

The main residence spans 3,800 square feet and features traditional American country architecture, including a wraparound porch and a metal roof. Inside, the design incorporates contemporary elements such as a double-height great room and a kitchen with soapstone countertops. A floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace anchors the dining area, while glass walls provide natural light. The primary suite includes a vaulted ceiling, a walk-in closet, and a bathroom with two vanities. Three additional en suite bedrooms are located on the upper floor.

The property contains 8,608 square feet of total living space across its structures. The accessory buildings include a red barn-style pool house of approximately 1,200 square feet. This two-level space functions as both a garage and an entertaining pavilion, featuring a kitchen with stainless steel appliances and a live-edge center island made from reclaimed wood. The interior design combines rustic and industrial elements, including exposed ductwork and a large steel fan.

One of the estate's unique features is a raised circular swimming pool designed to resemble a traditional horse trough. The pool sits above a flagstone terrace and is shaded by a triangular sail. The natural stone façade and broad coping provide seating around the water's edge. A triangular shade sail is suspended above the pool for additional coverage.

The listing also includes a tractor and a custom-designed shed finished in yakisugi, a traditional Japanese method of charring wood. The shed was designed to match a nearby potting shed and extend the property's architectural style to its working spaces. The surrounding farmland is protected through the sale of its development rights, which helps preserve the open fields and long views.

Gaetjens described the property as a quiet countryside alternative to the Hamptons. He noted that the next owner can use the estate immediately without spending years on planning or approvals. The property could support various uses, including vines for winemaking, horses, tennis, or productive agriculture, subject to town approvals.

The estate is located in Jamesport, with farm stands and vineyards nearby. Gaetjens stated that the area is close to Southampton and easily accessible from New York City. The next owner will have the option to host gatherings in the existing spaces or utilize the unfinished lower level of the main residence for future projects.
