Water Mill

The summer is coming to a close as we march into August. It is time for many families to settle down and get ready for the school year. The open houses happening this weekend provide the opportunity to view homes that may be perfect for you.

Sitting up on one of the highest elevations the East End has to offer, perched on a hilltop in Water Mill that offers a glimpse of the ocean over the treetops, is a home unlike any other in the Hamptons.

Chris Burch, who helped launch his then-wife’s eponymous fashion brand, Tory Burch, has purchased a $29 million home on Mecox Bay in Water Mill, according to The New York Post.

The 1.4-acre pastoral property offers a two-bedroom, one-bath cottage surrounded by mature landscaping, situated on the Bridgehampton-Water Mill border.

In this week’s market update, Hamptons Market Data looks at how buyer sentiments are changing in this still strong real estate market.

Among the most breathtaking properties being sold on the East End is a traditional Hamptons home overlooking Peconic Bay.

Set on a 2.3-acre waterfront property, the home offers “old world charm” paired with modern amenities, according to the Douglas Elliman listing. Michaela Keszler is the broker.

A midcentury modern-inspired home in Water Mill with panoramic views of Mecox Bay and the Atlantic Ocean dunes is now available at the new price of $16.5 million.

A new ultra-modern home planned for Water Mill has 270-degree views of Mecox Bay, Channel Pond, and the Atlantic Ocean. The home at 943 Flying Point Road is listed for $29.995 million with Bespoke Real Estate.
