WSJ Real Estate - The Linden Estate, a roughly 9-acre private residential compound in Southampton, N

The Linden Estate, a roughly 9-acre private residential compound in Southampton, N.Y., has sold for $70 million, according to a real-estate agent involved in the sale. The deal is one of the most expensive to have closed in the Hamptons this year, records show.⁠⁠The sellers are onetime fashion executive Jurgen Friedrich and his wife, Anke Beck-Friedrich, records show. ⁠⁠Tim Davis of the Corcoran Group, who co-listed the property and represented the buyer, declined to identify the purchaser but said it was an international businessperson. He said the deal represents the highest price ever paid for a non-waterfront property in the Hamptons.⁠⁠The property has been on and off the market for more than a decade and was most recently listed for $69.95 million at the end of 2021, Mr. Davis said. The Friedrichs paid $8.5 million for the property in 2002, records show. They then spent tens of millions of dollars renovating it, said Davis, who co-listed the property with Harald Grant of Sotheby’s International Realty.⁠⁠The main house spans more than 18,000 square feet on three floors and has 12 bedrooms plus staff quarters, according to the listing. The compound includes a 60-foot outdoor pool, a spa, a pool house, a grass tennis court and a carriage house with a connecting greenhouse. There are also two detached four-car garages and an indoor pool with a waterslide.⁠⁠More via the link in bio.⁠⁠📸: RICHARD TAVERNA
