Our 10th president, John Tyler, was married to Julia Gardiner, an East Hampton native who was born on a private island with her namesake. The 3,000-acre island has been considered to be “the most expensive private real estate on the planet,” and it’s the only United State property that succeeds a royal grant from the English Crown, according to Hamptons Beach House.

This Sag Harbor home was the Summer White House of 21st president, Chester A. Arthur. The house is actually currently on the market for $13.5 million.

Sagamore Hill, Oyster Bay: The Roosevelts

Although Oyster Bay isn’t technically considered a part of the Hamptons, we figured we would include the 26th president’s home. Theodore Roosevelt’s Long Island estate was his residence until his death in 1919, and is now the Sagamore Hill National Historic Site, which includes the Theodore Roosevelt Museum.

Grey Gardens: The Kennedys

The famous Grey Gardens estate—which sold at the end of 2017 for $15 million—has ties to Jackie Kennedy Onassis. Big Edie and Little Edie Bouvier Beale were the aunt and first cousin, respectively, to Onassis, and lived at the estate that became famous after a 1975 documentary.
