I'm beginning to think that The Real Housewives of New York City" isn't a reality show about rich New York ladies, it's a real estate showcase in disguise. One of the housewives, Ramona Singer put her Southampton home up for rent this summer already and here comes another one. The modelicious Kelly Killoren Bensimon has put her home on Further Lane in East Hampton for rent for the summer for the lofty price of $335,000. You can also buy it for $10.9 million.

The shingled home has four bedrooms and sits on 1.2 acres that include a gunite pool and a two-car garage. The interior is a bit more modern than many summer homes with dark glossy wood floors, a stainless steel kitchen and plenty of animal prints and whimsical details like a giant shark mounted in the living room. Newsday's Real Li reports that the home was on sale in 2007 for $14.5 million.
