When Oscar-nominated actors Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt need to move their brood of six children to a new location they don't mess around. The pair is notorious for renting some of the best real estate in the world and their trip to Long Island is no exception. The pair is said to be renting the Sassafras estate in Llyod Neck while Jolie films the spy thriller, "Salt."

Sassafras is a 48-acre waterfront estate that was once on the market for $60 million. The estate includes a Tudor-style mansion, two helipads, and a private dock. The main house has 22,000 square feet that includes eight bedrooms. There is also a six-bedroom guest house and an 11-bedroom staff house.

It's always pricey in New York but the latest estate to hit the market is creating a stir. Newsday reports that Sassafras, a 48-acre waterfront estate has hit the market for $60 million. The estate includes a Tudor-style mansion, two helipads, and a private dock. The home is located in the pricey area of Lloyd Neck which is the setting of several other of our favorite estates. The main house has 22,000 square feet that includes eight bedrooms. There is also a six-bedroom guest house and an 11-bedroom staff house. Yearly taxes alone are an astounding $195,000. According to Newsday, the unnamed seller has already turned down a bid of $50 million. Is it worth $60 million? Given the prices for other homes in the area and that this home offers a large amount of acreage and waterfront it may be in the right ballpark but I think the owner wouldn't have been remiss in taking the $50 mil offer.
