\nChoosing a bold, eye-catching shade for any surface is an easy way to transform a room from mundane to mesmerizing. Whether in the heart of the city or steps from the coast, these homes use vivid hues to add vitality and verve.<\/p>\n

Sophisticated Modern Beach House<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a>The Slater Team<\/a>\u00a0| Sotheby’s International Realty\u00a0\u2013 East Hampton Brokerage<\/a><\/i><\/p>\n

Enveloped by some 40 acres of peaceful preserve land, this 2,850-square-foot haven<\/a> combines the rustic charm of a well-loved beach house with the sophisticated aesthetics of an Easthampton getaway. Wide-plank hardwood flooring, ceiling beams, wood-paneled walls, and multiple fireplaces contribute to a calming classic ambience, while the den\u2019s captivating mineral-blue tone recalls the sky above and the sea not far away. Other highlights include a well-equipped cook\u2019s kitchen, a three-season sunroom, a deck, an indoor-outdoor shower, a firepit, and a pool and spa.<\/p>\n

Colorful Creativity on Fifth Avenue<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a>Lisa Larson<\/a>, Angela Wu<\/a>\u00a0| Sotheby’s International Realty \u2013 East Side Manhattan Brokerage<\/a><\/i><\/i><\/p>\n

Color is used to stylish effect in this chic condominium<\/a> home in a Emery Roth\u2013designed prewar building on Fifth Avenue. Cool living room walls bring to mind blue summer skies with wispy clouds, a boldly bright red floor enlivens a handsome kitchen with rich wood accents and a built-in dining area, and a vibrant yellow ceiling in one of the five bedrooms creates a cheerful way to start any day. Plentiful windows allow for enjoyment of lovely natural light and enviable Central Park views.<\/p>\n

Charming Coastal Colonial<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a>Chris Poore<\/a>\u00a0<\/i> | Sotheby’s International Realty \u2013 Downtown Manhattan Brokerage<\/a><\/i><\/p>\n

Highlights of this 1920s Colonial<\/a> include five restful bedrooms, a sunroom, a screened porch, and a two-car garage with an electric-vehicle charger. The formal dining room trades subdued shades for a jewel-like teal that contrasts intriguingly with the home\u2019s warm woods and serene white and cream tones. A kitchen that feels both charming and purposeful gives way through double glass doors to a sunny patio enveloped by hedgerows. Beyond is a refreshing saltwater pool ringed by picturesque fencing, flowers, and greenery\u2014with an outdoor shower nearby.<\/p>\n

Lively Living Lenox Hill<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a>Wendy Arriz<\/a>, Meghan Miller<\/a><\/i>\u00a0| Sotheby’s International Realty \u2013 East Side Manhattan Brokerage<\/a><\/i><\/p>\n

In this meticulously renovated sunlight-flooded prewar condominium<\/a> home, rich, spirited colors appear in places beyond the oak flooring, carefully curated art, and well-chosen furnishings found in the corner living room, the chef\u2019s kitchen, and the four bedrooms. Capable of accommodating a dozen hungry guests, the formal dining room has stylish walls that echo the wine that may find itself generously poured there, while the library\u2019s walls and custom bookshelves are awash in a soothing blue-gray hue sure to encourage quiet contemplation.<\/p>\n
