Hamptons 2024 peak season has come and gone, which means that those in a selling mindset may be listing their homes soon. And, while the affluent area always has pricey listings, one new offering might give you sticker shock. The estate is a combination of two parcels of land, formed into one major compound, and is asking $95 million.
The address’s story is a large part of its appeal, and high price. The original main house was built in 1931 by Arthur C. Jackson. A renowned architect of the time, Jackson is credited with crafting the plans for the iconic New York Public Library and famously designed Lasata, the Hamptons property where Jackie O summered as a girl.
Perched upon 11 acres of land on the Georgica Pond, this Briar Patch Road retreat is vast yet welcoming with a quintessential Hamptons look. Driving up to the main house, a classic shingle-style exterior opens to airy, sophisticated interiors with wide plank wood floors and a soft color palette. Near the estate’s original structure sits its guest house, thoughtfully designed in 1990 by architect Peter Marino. This matching shingle-style abode is the size of most people’s primary homes. It boasts a kitchen, bright living areas and porches, and four bedrooms across the board.
With both homes, the residence offers 13,800 square feet of living space. Needless to say, the new owners of the $95 million compound can invite plenty of visitors to come and stay. The grounds are also not to be overlooked and further facilitate a life of leisure. Nature trails weave through the land and a heated pool and spa sits between the two homes. Plus, as well as enjoying its position on Georgica Pond, the property also has a private pond of its own.
Prestige, privacy, and design pedigree make this Hamptons listing a triple threat, but its price ensures the buying pool will be quite small. Harald Grant and Bruce Grant of Sotheby’s International Realty hold the listing.
