Principals’ Bios

Charles H. Berg

Charles H. Berg has been developing and building houses in the Hamptons since 1985—and is responsible for transforming the East End with his visionary “design-build” concept. Chuck’s guiding philosophy is to create—and build—an intimate relationship between a house and the land on which it lives. Extremely experienced in all project phases from land development and landscaping to financing and construction, his current responsibilities include planning, land acquisition, and "on-time/on-budget'' project management.

Taking the best of the past (like traditional approaches to shingle-style construction) with the best of the new (like green, earthy building materials), Chuck’s passion is to bring his clients’ dreams to life.

A graduate of Long Island University, Chuck has completed post-graduate coursework in real estate finance at New York University. He lives with his family in Muttontown and Sag Harbor, New York.
