In July 2018, real estate broker David Granville and his partner Jeffrey Pfeifle, a retired fashion executive and former president of J.Crew, initially listed their Hamptons home for $5.9 million. After taking the listing down, the couple is now relisting their Water Mill residence for $6.75 million.
Granville and Pfeifle purchased the property at 204 Upper Seven Ponds Road in 2008 for $4.3 million and undertook an extensive maximalist redesign. Built in 2003, the shingle-style home offers seven bedrooms and eight bathrooms across 6,000 square feet. The listing, handled by Granville and his Corcoran colleague Mala Sander, describes the estate as a prime example of luxury and style in the Hamptons. The property spans nearly three acres and includes a gated entrance, a dramatic long driveway, an apple orchard, and potential space for a tennis court.
Inside, the home features a blend of Nantucket and Palm Beach styles, starting with a grand foyer and a great room with cathedral ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, and a cozy fireplace. The den also includes a fireplace, a full bar, and coffered ceilings. The kitchen is equipped with granite countertops and high-end appliances. The primary suite, located on its own wing on the first floor, boasts dual bathrooms and a sitting area.
The outdoor space is complemented by lush gardens, rolling lawns, decorative fountains, and a sprawling covered deck that can accommodate up to 30 guests. Additional amenities include a 50-foot-long swimming pool, a chic cabana, a pool house, and an outbuilding currently used as a gym.
Granville and Pfeifle have previously rented their home for $110,000 from August to Labor Day. This rate is relatively modest compared to newer homes in Water Mill, which have commanded up to $1.2 million for the Memorial Day to Labor Day season or $1 million for July to Labor Day.
