AntiHamptons.com Launches

Lifestyle website devoted to showcasing the beauty and the uniqueness of the AntiHamptons.

Mastic Beach, NY, June 21, 2008 --(PR.com)-- The AntiHamptons are located on the South Shore of Suffolk County, Long Island just 70 miles from New York City.

Unable to afford the Hamptons, Fire Island or North Fork, the design team of Shawn and Maureen Getchell partners at GetcoDesign, came across Mastic Beach while driving around Long Island’s South Shore in 2000. They were instantly smitten. As the design team researched the area, they learned that beach bungalows are surprisingly affordable, taxes are relatively low, and the school district excellent. They want to tell the world how unbelievable the area is so AntiHamptons.com was born.

“People are always asking me why it’s called the AntiHamptons” says Maureen. “It’s because this place is the polar opposite of the Hamptons. There are no gated McMansions crowding the waterfront. Nobody ‘clubs’ here. There is no ‘scene’. It is quiet, multi-cultural and family-oriented. There isn’t a nanny in sight, people actually raise their own children here.”

“There are sunlit open-bay views. Unlike the neighboring Hamptons, the property owners had the foresight to maintain the pristine waterfront for everyone to enjoy. There are three marinas, private docks, a beautiful links-style golf course, yacht club and several historic sites. What more could you ask for”

“The AntiHamptons have all the beauty and the amenities of the neighboring Hamptons but without all the pretension and glitz. Flip-flops, not stilettos, are the shoes of choice. Each resident has the right to look out upon the natural beauty any time day or night. It really is a paradise.”

Most of the AntiHamptons full-time residents are retirees and young families. Many artists and writers come to the area as weekenders. They enjoy the same waterfront as the neighboring overpriced villages, but weren't suckered into spending 3-50 million dollars for obstructed water views. Waterfront sells for about $500,000. Steals can still be had for under $200,000.
