Christie Brinkley Lists In North Haven

Filed under: Estates, Celebrity Shopping

Christie Brinkley is selling in the Hamptons again. The supermodel has turned real estate investor, buying and fixing up homes in the area. The home she recently listed in North Haven is, according to the Wall Street Journal, part of the collection of Hamptons real estate that Brinkley has collected over the years and held on to even after her ugly divorce a couple of years ago from Hamptons architect Peter Cook.

The five-bedroom home dates back to 1843. The classically-columned waterfront mansion is on a 4.5 acre lot that comes with a pool and 327 feet of beachfront. Brinkley told the WSJ that she's too busy to maintain the home especially because she is launching several new businesses. She paid $7.15 million for the house in 2004.

The North Haven house has views both of the harbor and the surrounding bay. Inside there are four fireplaces and wide-plank pine floors. There are three stories and the main floor has a living room, adjacent sitting room, formal dining room, open kitchen with soapstone and marble counters, a great room with another sitting and dining area, powder room, mud room, pantry and full bath. An oak banister staircase takes you to the second floor and four of the five bedrooms including a master bedroom suite with a separate sitting room, master bath and outdoor terrace. A third floor includes a fifth bedroom, a separate study and storage area. It is listed at $15.75 million with Jay Flagg of Prudential Douglas Elliman.

Brinkley's Tower Hill in Bridgehampton has been listed for the past three years at $30 million. Brinkley has said that she is considering taking the home off the market because she hasn't had any nibbles on the 12-bedroom home.
