Because 14,000 square feet wasn’t big enough, he also enlarged the house to 17,500 square feet. Walentas quickly tore all the vintage charm out of the old house and replaced it with a modern-minimalist interior. Then, in 2019, the house sold again, for $11.6 million, to David Walentas, the billionaire real-estate developer who transformed Brooklyn’s Dumbo neighborhood from an industrial wasteland into a upscale neighborhood of loft apartments, office buildings and trendy boutiques. The estate spent the next eight years on and off the market, generally with the price dropping, and finally sold in 2015 for steeply discounted $15 million. It’s been a wild ride for the property, which came up for sale back in 2007 at $24 million. With a brick facade and slate roof, dark interior woodwork and vintage charm, this is the epitome of a classic Southampton estate, from the rolling green lawns to the rambling old house. The three-acre spread was jointly repped by Bespoke Real Estate and Christopher Burnside at Brown Harris Stevens, while Harald Grant of Sotheby’s brought the buyers.Īrchitect Grosvenor Atterbury designed many well-known houses and museums in the Hamptons, as well as the American Wing of the Metropolitan Museum, and he designed this house in 1910.
Just a fews doors from the Atlantic Ocean, an expansive property in Southampton, N.Y., has been sold for $32.2 million to Stewart Butterfield, co-founder and CEO of messaging company Slack, and Jen Rubio, co-founder and CEO of Away, a luggage manufacturer.
