Two \u2018Sopranos\u2019 Writers Just Listed Their Shelter Island Home for $6.5 Million"},"content":{"rendered":"

Robin Green and Mitchell Burgess, the award-winning writers and producers known for their work on The Sopranos<\/em>, didn’t settle down in New Jersey, where the hit HBO series is set, but rather in a quieter, more exclusive hideaway about 100 miles from the state.<\/p>\n

\n The couple’s picture-perfect home is tucked away on New York<\/a>‘s Shelter Island<\/a>, a 29-square-mile oasis between the North and South Forks of Long Island accessible only by ferry. The compound, currently on the market<\/a> for $6.5 million with Stacey Cohen at the Agency Hamptons, dates back to 1888, but was renovated by the architect Lee Skolnick<\/a> and the design firm Heiberg Cummings<\/a> in 1988. Green and Burgess, both Emmy Award winners who have also worked on Blue Bloods<\/em>, aren’t the only celebrities to have called it home, either: The well-known art critic Robert Hughes<\/a> was a former owner.<\/p>\n

\n Situated on a lush two acres, the estate encompasses several structures. The main residence, with its beachy shake siding, is full of serene, light-filled spaces. A stone fireplace anchors the large living room, which includes a separate sitting area that spills open to a small brick patio. The chef’s kitchen sports white cabinetry and stainless-steel appliances; it flows through to both a butler’s pantry and a dining room with a built-in breakfast nook.<\/p>\n

\n Upstairs, the primary suite is a sizable offering with its own balcony and sitting room. The latter has a large round window that fills the space with sunlight and looks out on the manicured grounds. The accompanying en suite is a minimal space with a vintage-looking soaking tub. In total, the compound has four bedrooms and five bathrooms, plus a screened-in porch with plenty of lounge seating.<\/p>\n

\n Outside, a storybook walkway covered in wisteria links the main residence to the barn. Here, you’ll find a two-car garage, a gym, and an artist studio where you can let your creativity run wild. The landscaped gardens, courtesy of designer Jeff Mendoza<\/a>, include tidy hedges and all sorts of flora: rose bushes, hydrangeas, dogwood trees, and mature fig, apple, and pear trees. There’s even a vegetable garden where you can grow all sorts of goodies.<\/p>\n
