YOUR MAMAS NOTES: Former supermodel Christie Brinkley is hoping to thin her fat
real estate portfolio in the hoity toity Hamptons. Miz Brinkley, who makes the
Hamptons her home year round, recently listed an historic property in the North
Haven section of Sag Harbor, NY with an asking price of $15,750,000.
Property records reveal that Miz Brinkley picked up the 4.5 acre bay front
spread in April of 2004 for $7,150,000. It doesn't take a math genius–which Your
Mama certainly is not–to see that Miz Brinkley and her real estate peeps believe
her property has more than doubled in value in the last six years. And maybe it
has. It's quite possible that Miz Brinkley's philandering ex-huzband, architect
Peter Cook, did a number on the property prior to them parting ways in 2006 amid
salacious stories in all the tabs and gossip glossies about Mister Cook's lurid
affair with a legal but -aged gurl. Or maybe she stuck it to his
professional ego and hired another architect to do the place over. Whatever the
case, and extensive renovation would certainly might account for at least some
of the increase in value even though the market sank like stone in 2007 and 2008
and 2009.
Anyhoo, listing information for the property shows the three floor Greek Revival
style captain's house was built way back in 1843 and has not just one, but two
elegant and imposing columned porticos. The interior spaces, which we'd bet our
long bodied bitches are well executed and decorated even if they're not to Your
Mama's own taste, include period details, wide-plank old pine floors, and 4 wood
burning fireplaces according to listing information.
