Hamptons country estate asking more than $28 million

By Paul A. Johnson, Curbed Hamptons

This Bridgehampton estate is set on a whopping 4.7 south-of-the-highways acres, hence the monstrous $28.5M ask. The 8000 sq. ft. home—renovated in 2007—has been featured in magazines and has played host to garden tours and fundraisers alike and we can see why. Check out the brokerbabble:

"[The] shingled home [offers] truly, great rooms, large kitchen, plenty of bedrooms and baths for family and guests, pool side sunroom, out of the way tennis court, acres of gardens and open lawn with huge shade trees, garages and a host of modern amenities."

Perfect for shaking down friends for their charitable donations. And no Hamptons home would be complete without a heated, gunite pool—of course this has one. But, in case you'd rather take a dip in the ocean, the Atlantic is just down the road.
