Historic Sag Harbor

Located in the heart of Historic Sag Harbor Village, 6 Union Street was originally constructed in 1760 for Revolutionary War veteran Captain John Hulbert and his family. Captain Hulbert and his militia were integral in the recapture of Fort Ticonderoga from the British in 1773. It is rumored that the original prototype of the American flag was designed by Hulbert to lead his forces, and was believed to have influenced the one sewn by Betsy Ross the following year. Now known as the Captain John Hulbert House, this Italianate style home has been completely restored and renovated by Breskin Development and offers modern conveniences while staying true to its original design.

The team at Breskin has carefully infused modern Hamptons luxury into this magnificent 6000 sq. ft. home, while maintaining 18th century historic elements such as exposed hand-hewn beams, original moldings, and eight masonry fireplaces. A south facing great room adjoins a light-filled kitchen, that was masterfully designed and constructed by fifth generation Ciuffo Custom Cabinetry with a high gloss finish and brass accents. There is accented brass shelving from Amuneal as well as a LaCornue stove and Sub-Zero refrigerator. The great room features french doors overlooking the garden and a 16’X36′ heated gunite pool with bluestone surround. The main level also includes a formal living room and dining room with restored Venetian plasterwork, a double-sided fireplace, and full-service butler’s pantry with access to a wraparound mahogany front porch. Solace and respite await on the second level which boasts a primary bedroom with 10-foot ceilings, a large bathroom with a full soaking tub, two full-sized walk- in closets and an extensive private mahogany deck overlooking the backyard.

All levels are supplemented by a full-service elevator as well as a main and secondary staircase.
