The legendary "Pyramid House," a unique and eye-catching abode located on Fire Island that is literally shaped like it's polyhedron-like namesake, has been listed on the open market for a whopping $4,250,000 according to a listing from the agency representing the seller, Brown Harris Stevens.
 
Originally built in 1961 and situated on a 0.18-acre plot of land in the hamlet of Fire Island Pines, the Pyramid House offers three bedrooms and 2.5 baths, spread out amongst 2,100-square-feet of living space.
 
 
According to the listing the residence represents an "architectural masterpiece" that anyone with an eye for style - and exceedingly deep pockets - would be crazy to pass up.
 
"The Legendary Pyramid House is an undisputed architectural masterpiece, built in 1961 and renovated in 2006 by architect Hal Hayes," the listing reads. "This extraordinary home offers an irreplicable site, true mid-century style, unparalleled tranquility and sophisticated yet unpretentious living."
 
 
According to the listing, the home boasts numerous amenities, high-end finishes, and attractive architectural touches, making it the ideal place to enjoy beachfront living along Fire Island's gorgeous shoreline.
 
"The centerpiece is the great room with its soaring ceiling, staggering views and wall of glass in the living room, kitchen and dining room, overlooking the dunes, the ocean and the bay. Beneath, the enormous primary suite, featuring a dressing room, large bathroom and private study, looks out to the dunes on one side and the pool deck on the other," the listing says. "Across the pool deck are 2 guest cabana bedrooms and a bathroom in between, all in the shape of pyramids. Cooling ocean breezes flow day and night in this sophisticated, relaxed compound. Multiple decks and work areas in the home offer privacy, convenience and graceful separation of space."
 
 
And finally, the listing also touts the home's excellent potential as a lucrative short term rental property, saying that it is a "trophy home that has a verified history of producing extraordinary income."
