Westhampton Beach New York Homes for Sale

Considered by many to be "the first Hampton," Westhampton Beach is situated on the scenic South Shore in the eastern end of Suffolk County.  Once a popular summer destination for youthful groups looking for a casual atmosphere, the village is maturing into an upscale community with first-rate amenities.  Civic planners seem very adept at integrating the finest aspects of a resort haven with a thriving suburban economy.  The quaint town center creates a charming setting for summer gazebo concerts and other special events.  Those who appreciate the arts will be delighted with the Westhampton Performing Arts Center and its kaleidoscope of events and programs.  The village is approximately a 90-minute commute from Manhattan, although laptops and cell phones have dramatically reduced the "days into the office" for many residents.  Some condominiums and apartments have been added to the housing mix of well-kept and attractive single-family homes.
