Fashion Designer Elie Tahari Drops the Asking Price of His Hamptons Home to $39M

Surrounded by 250 feet of ocean frontage, this three-bedroom retreat is one of the most expensive properties currently for sale on the East End.

Elie Tahari is still seeking for a buyer for his refurbished oceanfront estate in the Hamptons. After listing the 4,500-square-foot home two years ago for nearly $45 million, the Israeli fashion designer just put it back on the market, shaving $6 million off the original asking price.

The double-height living/dining room was designed by Tom Flynn. The voluminous space features exposed beams and rafters.

Located in the Southampton village of Sagaponack, the three-bedroom, three-bath residence rests on a verdant two-acre lot and comes with a private expanse of beach. Inside, the home’s main living spaces center around a large, barn-like family room, complete with 30-foot-high vaulted ceilings. Two sets of roll-up, glass Tambour doors frame views of the pool and a mature grove of Russian olive trees.

A long wooden table in the formal dining area can easily accommodate 12 guests. Bespoke cabinets and shelves provide storage space underneath the staircase.

    REVEALING THE EVIDENCE Confrontation with the reality of these ruins was always a confrontation seeped in memories. Memories
    of a place where the raw matter it is constituted of – the rock, the valley and the mountain – shows evident expression, provoking a game of fine balance between place, matter, light and shadow. We found light that dripped down the stone walls defining spaces separated only by rows of stacked rock. In each fissure, in each wrinkle, a soft balance between light and shadow. Standing before this scenery, the exercise consisted in finding the most natural way to connect ruins and spaces, simultaneously defining future possibilities for links between the interior and the exterior. Where decisions were concerned, we chose to rehabilitate pre-existing volumes and introduce a new connecting element. The answer is given by the almost immediate decision to join together the pre-existing elements. This
    gesture, deeply connected to the terrain along the pendente – connects the two sections facing west,
    forming an exterior courtyard adorned with a centenary olive tree. This project builds a space that runs through the ruins, uniting them and revealing the obvious functional relationship between the house’s programmatic areas, simultaneously differentiating the possibilities for inhabiting the exterior space. It expresses its temporality through the antagonism of matter in its relationship with pre-existing elements.
