A modern coastal home designed by the late architect Myron Goldfinger is on the market for $4.7 million.
It’s the first time the house has been for sale since it was built in 1982.
The five-bedroom, six-bathroom space, which has been featured in housing magazines over the years, is at 30 Beachfront Lane in New Rochelle, NY. It is part of a gated community of only 12 houses, 35 minutes’ drive from town.
Measuring 5,903 square feet, the home sits on 0.38 acres and comes with a pool and views of Long Island Sound.
Goldfinger — who died last year and designed homes in New York, the Hamptons, New Jersey, Connecticut, Anguilla and New Mexico — is known as an original architect.
One of the houses he designed was featured in the 2013 film The Wolf of Wall Street as the setting for a wild party. (The house, in Sands Point on Long Island’s north shore, was built in 1981 for then-Weight Watchers executive Fred Jaroslow.)
In his obituary, the New York Times revived a quote from his 1992 book, Myron Goldfinger: Architect.
“All architecture must eventually fade and turn to dust,” Goldfinger wrote. “The fashion of the moment is so temporary. Only basic eternal geometry repeats itself in time.”
While Goldfinger built the house in 1982, its footprint was expanded in 1999.
The home is also primed for entertaining, indoors and out, with swimming, kayaking and paddleboarding available from the private beach. There is also an oceanfront patio and a glass-enclosed pool for year-round use.
Inside, the curved walls and high ceilings contain many umbrellas and glass that help take advantage of the water views. The residence also boasts a sunny living room, a formal dining room, a chef’s kitchen and a home office – plus a master bedroom with stunning views.
The listing broker is Mimi Magarelli of Julia B. Fee Sotheby’s International Realty.
