9 Cross Hwy

Loads of charm, just down the street from the ocean and Two Mile Hollow Beach, and one of only a handful of properties in East Hampton affording the rare opportunity to build two houses on one lot, this circa-1745 gem offers some dazzling possibilities.

Once home to the Riding Club of East Hampton, where young Jacqueline Bouvier learned to ride, the .9-acre former “Abraham Baker House” property abuts the village’s Estate Section and carries the special distinction of being both in the Village and the Town. Designated with a Special Historic Landmark by East Hampton Town, the generous South-of-the-Highway property comprises just under an acre of buildable land; a still-standing 275-year-old two-story shingle-style home with three bedrooms, three full baths and two fireplaces; room for a pool; and an East Hampton Village address with incredibly low taxes.
