SAG HARBOR VILLAGE SCRIPT. A turn of the century folk Victorian house most recently owned by renowned genre author, Alan Furst. Intrinsic to the composition of historical espionage novels, this Village house includes a seasonal writer's workshop with sink and toilet. Originally built by the Bulova Watch Company for local executives, this three bedroom, two- and one-half bath house retains poetic character on remarkable grounds. Enter through the wrap around porch, the first floor includes a generous living room with raised hearth fireplace and library area, formal dining room, kitchen with island and powder room. The second floor has a large landing with three bedrooms, two full bathrooms, one of which is en-suite. The spacious attic showcases the contributing diamond shaped window in the gable. In addition to the writer's workshop there is a separate "party shed" on this expansive 0.47-acre property spanning from Hampton Street to Franklin Avenue. With allowable building coverage of 4,124 square feet, this property can accommodate so much more than the existing 1,616 square feet of coverage. In the words of Alan, "once you have your characters, they tell you what to write, you don't tell them".
