THE JAFFE HOUSE: HEIRLOOM ON SHELTER ISLAND

The Jaffe House is a rare architectural masterpiece on Shelter Island, representing one of the earliest and most significant creations by famed architect Norman Jaffe. This six-bedroom residence exemplifies Jaffe’s signature "poured-in-place" style, integrating with the serene New York coastline through an organic, sculptural form.

A privacy on a lush, seaside lot and a design that prioritizes natural light and maritime views. Unique features include Jaffe’s mastery of strong geometric lines, a generous use of warm wood and locally sourced stone, and expansive glass walls that blur the boundary between the sophisticated interior and the Atlantic horizon. Crafted with an uncompromising respect for the landscape, the home functions as a living piece of art. It offers a refined, tranquil sanctuary for those who value mid-century modern heritage and the rugged, understated beauty of coastal New York.
