Vacation Rental Description
RAFIKI HOUSE, SAG HARBOR, HAMPTONS VACATION RENTAL Rafiki House, Sag Harbor, is an ideal rental home, so named because its owner was raised in Kenya, where the word "rafiki" means "friend" in Kishuaeli. This is a charming, completely renovated and upgraded 200-year-old vacation home within the Sag Harbor village historic district on a pretty, tree-lined street flanked by other historic homes. The house is of traditional clapboard, with two floors, a full basement and a full attic - all renovated for maximum use and comfort. In 2008, the house was completely re-sided with cedar siding and new insulation so that it is comfortably cool in summer and retains heat in winter.
This charming rental home is built on a slight hill, so the view from the deck overlooks not only my gorgeous garden, but those of several neighbors as well, giving the impression of a private park at the back of the house.
The ground floor of this Hamptons family vacation home has a large living room with a piano and high efficiency wood-burning stove, a bedroom and bathroom suite, full eat-in kitchen, and laundry, with front and side entrances. A huge deck with deck furniture and barbeque is accessible from the kitchen. Steps from the side entrance lead to the garden.
The first floor of this Hamptons vacation home has the large master bedroom with a walk-in closet, a smaller guest bedroom with a twin bed, and a full bath with hot-water jet tub. The attic, perched high above the hill, is the size of the house and is a wonderfully light and spacious TV den, office, sleeping area for two guests or children's play area.
In this rental home, the finished basement (heated, painted, tiled floor) provides access to the brand new oil burner and new sealed oil tank, as well as plenty of storage space for bikes, skis, etc. It also contains a large desk, office chair and shelves and can be used as an extra work space for long-term tenants.
Rafiki House is furnished with an eclectic mix of antiques and found pieces that the owner has collected over more than 20 years throughout her many travels all over the world. It's colorful, full of wonderful paintings by local artists, and comfortable - designed for easy vacation living as well as more formal Hamptons-style entertainment. Eat at the long table in the kitchen or at the round, antique table in the living room - or even out on the deck. Rafiki House is ideal for summer vacations, and is also available during the winter.
This lovely rental home is fully furnished and equipped with high quality bedding, towels, kitchen appliances, and enough crockery and cutlery to entertain up to 20 guests. Park right outside the front door; walk to the village in three minutes or drive or ride to the nearby Sound and ocean beaches. Two doors away, Espresso Deli provides Italian gourmet food.
Rafiki House is the ideal vacation rental home in the Hamptons, right in the heart of the village of Sag Harbor's historic district and a 5-minute walk to Main Street, with its quaint shops, several restaurants, classic movie theater and the lovely harbor. Ocean beaches are a 15-minute drive from Rafiki House and Long Island Sound beaches are only 10 minutes away.
Facilities
My house is ideal for individuals, couples, groups or families with kids. It is a ten-minute walk from Main Street and a short walk from playgrounds and the harbor. The house itself has all the charm of the traditional Sag Harbor whaling homes of the nineteenth century while enjoying all the mod cons of the twenty-first century. The kitchen is well equipped for private dining as well as entertaining, with a dining table for 8 and an extension table for 4 -6 people. Microwave, gas stove with plate/food warmer, coffee maker, blender and chopper as well as plenty of dishes of all kinds, glasses etc. are provided. The attic loft is a great place for kids or teenagers. The living room is filled with books, music and art by outstanding local artists who also happen to be my friends. The large deck enjoys a lovely view over several gardens and has sunshine all day long. The house is comfortable, colorful, sunny and cozy all year.

Owners Profile
Sag Harbor - Best House on Best Block
I have lived in this house since 1987 and love it with all my heart. In over 20 years of renting out over the summer and often during the winter as well, I have never had a complaint. It's not a flashy "Hamptons" house - just a lovely, restored Sag Harbor village gem,and if you like a relaxed ambience, eclectic decor,a huge library of books and music, a welcoming eat-in kitchen and a spacious deck for sunbathing or evening cocktails, this is the place for you. I'm a writer and film maker, and so many of my friends out here are artists. You'll see their work on my walls. I've had such wonderful parties and celebrations here, both indoors and out, and I feel incredibly privileged to have found this little paradise on the East End of Long Island.
