Behind the Historic Doors in the Hamptons: Part 4
One last glimpse at Christmas in the Hamptons,

a beautiful family seaside home with
deep historical East End roots.

Last but certainly not least (and my personal favorite) house on the East Hampton Historic Tour was the Ruth Ann McSpadden House on Bluff Road. Overlooking the ocean and beach in Amagansett the grand home is set on a historic district, but this gem is a shining star even in this neighborhood. Built in 1905, the home's architecture is original and the interiors reflect the owner's love of all things nautical. There are original John Audubon prints, gorgeous authentic ship prints, traditional English wallpaper and fabrics and lots of antiques throughout this home.
