Back in 2014, this East Hampton property, with 3.5 acres of sumptuous landscaping by Ed Hollander, along with a 7,700-square-foot, 7 bedroom house, pool, and tennis, was listed for $11.9 million.

This listing intrigued us because of the quick sale. We're not sure why it sold so fast: the interiors are definitely tired and it's not cheap enough for a teardown. Guess it was just some combination of the right location, right price, and right buyer. Location is very good, in the peaceful, pleasant Lanes, just north of Bluff ...

The Hamptons real estate market right now is just like Napoleon's invasion of Russia in 1812: cutting! Slashing! Prices falling faster than the battle of Smolensk! Asks retreating like the Grande Armée!  Wait, where were we? Right. This appealing 3.8 acre property is on Burnett's Creek (right off Mecox Bay). The asking price...

We've been noticing for a while now that Springs prices have been heating up. Unfortunately, this is difficult to quantify easily, as none of the brokerage market reports breaks Springs into its own category. (Town & Country, which provides fairly granular data, distinguishes between "East Hampton Area," which includes Wainscott,...

Just about two years ago, supermodel Christie Brinkley put her stunning 1843 Greek Revival in North Haven up for sale, asking $25 million.

Ah, it feels like spring today in the Hamptons. Sunny, pleasant temperature, and you hear the slight buzzing noise? That's the sound of prices being chopped everywhere. Such as this property!

Maybe. Unfortunately, these beautiful old Southampton grande dames aren't the easiest things to sell. This place, designed in 1910 by old-school starchitect Grosvenor Atterbury and located in the lovely estate section of Southampton, has had a checkered history in the 21st century. It was listed way back in 2007 asking a whopping...
