Earlier this week, we had readers guess the asking price of a brand new modern beach house on Dune Road in Water Mill, designed by Barnes Coy Architects. The poll we ran weighed heaviest in the category of between $20 million and $25 million with 40 percent of votes, but the home is actually listed a bit higher at $29.95 million under Bespoke Real Estate.

About 21 percent of our readers correctly thought it was between $25 million and $30 million, while about 28 percent voted that it was between $15 million and $20 million. Less than 10 votes went to the category over $30 million.

In 6,000 square feet, there are five bedrooms and six and a half bathrooms on a half-acre of waterfront land on Mecox Bay. The interiors work to maximize the bay and ocean views inside with floor-to-ceiling windows and an upside-down floorplan where the living and dining rooms are on the upper level while the bedrooms are on the lower level.

An elevator services all four floors, starting at the ground level that provides storage space for boating and water sport equipment. The ground level also hosts the three-car garage, which has an optional lift for a fourth car, plus a charging station for electric cars. Upstairs, five ensuite bedrooms can be found on the second level, including the master suite which features a spa-like bathroom with radiant heat flooring, his and hers dressing rooms, and a north-facing terrace with a sound system and a clear glass railing.

The living and dining spaces are situated on the third level, where the kitchen has stainless steel appliances and the living room has a 50-foot retractable wall of glass that leads out to a 1,000-square-foot outdoor terrace with a separate sound system, a built-in barbecue, and an 85-foot outdoor television.

Finally, the fourth level accessed by elevator is the rooftop waterview terrace, where the future homeowner will look out to both Mecox Bay and the Atlantic Ocean. There’s a heated pool and entertaining space, all surrounded by a clear glass railing.
