Rent this shingle-style home on Long Island’s North Fork and you’ll get more than a waterfront spread with space for up to 13 guests. You’ll also stay in a star of the screen — specifically, a property that has appeared in two HBO shows.
Located in East Marion, this Long Island Sound-facing listing — which asks $1,300 per night — most recently had a role in HBO’s hit limited series “The Undoing.” It plays the family beach home of Grace Fraser (Nicole Kidman), a therapist — but without the house’s signature five-story tower, which appears to have been digitally removed for the show. Grace hides away there to escape from reporters stationed outside of her New York City townhouse after a mother of her son’s classmate is murdered and Grace’s husband, Jonathan (Hugh Grant), goes missing.
The six-bedroom abode also appeared in an episode of HBO’s “Girls,” “Beach House,” which aired in 2014. In that episode, Marnie (Allison Williams) invites the show’s other main characters to her mother’s friend’s beach house for a weekend stay that doesn’t go as planned.
Off-screen, the home was originally built as a US government-operated lifesaving station for distressed mariners in the 1890s, which is why it bears the tall tower, whose fourth floor now houses an optional seventh bedroom.
Since renovated into a family home, it now includes a kitchen with two sinks and a six-burner stove, a loft space with a 65-inch television and — back in the tower — a room on top with wide-open views. Outside, the 3-acre grounds include a swimming pool and 300 feet of beach frontage. Listing images additionally show outdoor seating and dining areas, and windows that let in lots of natural light.
The stay is available starting Sunday at the soonest.
