Spring 2019

Feb19556 It wasn’t so long ago that luxury was defined by bombastic opulence – the louder the better. Today, luxury has achieved an almost chameleonic quality, found in the most surprising of places. Hidden treasures lurk in quiet alleyways, or blend into their urban neighbours. It’s found in the artisanal and the mainstream alike. However, regardless of the definition, there’s no denying that the Baker House is luxurious. From the ivy-covered walls, and the 200-year-old wisteria to the perfectly maintained gardens, and idyllic rustic charm, it is clear that this is a place to be treasured, cherished, experienced. In a move that eschews convention, the Baker House is a Bed & Breakfast, helping to complete the imagery of old-school traditionalism. The house is indeed traditional when it comes to perfecting the guest experience. The staff are helpful and attentive, whilst still being discreet. The cosy interiors and immediate surroundings encouraging leisure, whether it be found in The Baker Spa – with its endless swimming pool, sauna, steam shower, or soaking jacuzzi club – or a game of golf at one of the Hampton’s prestigious courses. In the summer months, guests receive coveted East Hampton Village beach parking passes, as well as plush beach towels, umbrellas and chairs. All in all, the house is ideally located, nestled on the historic village green, within walking distance to the ocean, as well as truly world-class shopping experiences and restaurants. In juxtaposition, perhaps, to the house’s interiors are state of the art amenities, which are sure to satisfy even the most discerning of tech tastes. Here, flat screen TVs, and Bose Wave music systems find a home between the laden bookshelves and exposed beams. The guest rooms are spacious, and beautifully furnished with wood burning fireplaces, William Morris wallpapers, and Frette linens that are sure to guarantee a blissful night’s sleep. The lavish bathrooms are enhanced through whirlpools and L’Occitane products. For those that want something truly indulgent, The Baker Carriage House, located directly behind the main house, offers more privacy and more luxurious accommodations – no small feat for a property that always reaches for perfection.
