In Water Mill, the iconic Witch’s Hat finds a buyer

This summer, the whimsical 19th century Victorian style house in Water Mill known as the Witch’s Hat came on the market for $2,295,000. After four months on the market and no changes in asking price, the home has found a buyer and a sale is currently pending.

Built in 1884, the Queen Anne style home stands 3,259 square feet in size with four bedrooms, four bathrooms, an open parlor, a sunroom, a gourmet kitchen, and a master suite with a private porch and views over Mill Pond. The third floor includes water views and extra living space.

The 0.84-acre hedged property features a double-height pool house with 11-foot French doors and a heated pool.

Designer Richard Keith Langham purchased the 19th century home in 2000 for $795,000 according to PropertyShark records and has since modernized the structure while holding on to the character that makes 134-year-old home so special.

Compass Real Estate agents Ginger Thoerner and Debby Koster represent the listing.
