Long Island, NY After twenty years in international construction and development, partners Hezi Mena and Stefano Braganti of DeUna Holdings are expanding into The Hamptons, unveiling a collection of three luxury, eco-friendly spec homes. The first home in the collection, at 8 Barnes Ave. in East Hampton, is on 1.04 acres spanning 10,585 s/f and is set to finish construction in February 2024, with the two other properties following shortly behind.
All three homes in the collection will employ concrete in this fashion, resulting in almost net-zero homes that are more energy efficient than their wood counterparts. The homes will also utilize solar panels as a primary source of energy, and are equipped with energy-efficient appliances from Miele.
8 Barnes Ave. has white European Oak floors, hand-selected marble accents from Italy, an EFFE sauna and steam room, filtered shower heads, a home theater, wine cellar, infinity pool, jacuzzi and sundeck. The home, designed by Enrico Tognoni of ETAD, has column-free interior spaces that run the full width of the house, majestic floor-to-ceiling sliding doors, and a monumental 22-foot fireplace in the main living area featuring supersize slabs of Premium Grigio Argentato Marble sourced directly from an Italian quarry.
“We believe that concrete, when intelligently integrated into single-family homes, is the cornerstone of superior structural performance. Unlike conventional stick-built construction, our concrete framework offers unmatched strength, energy efficiency, and aesthetics. Our innovative approach ensures enduring structures and minimizes energy consumption over time,” said Hezi Mena of DeUna Holdings.
