Scandal hit Harvey Weinstein sells his Connecticut home and lists Hamptons estate for sale
** RIGHTS: WORLDWIDE EXCEPT IN UNITED STATES ** Los Angeles, CA – Scandal hit Harvey Weinstein sells his Connecticut home and lists Hamptons estate for sale. The movie tycoon and founder of Miramax Films just sold his four bedroom, three bathroom home in the picturesque Connecticut suburb of Westport for $1.65 million. Weinstein has owned the property since 1995, when he bought it for $825,000. Weinstein is currently embroiled in controversy after actresses like Rose McGowan, Angelina Jolie, and Gwyneth Paltrow allege sexual misconduct. Built in 1953, the stunning estate is known as Minute Man Hill. Located in the heart of the Compo Beach area, the mid-century modern estate is one of the most coveted addresses in all of Connecticut. A sun-filled living room leads into a chef’s kitchen with an adjacent family room, while the master suite features a large sitting room and bath. And with just steps away from the sparkling shore, swimming pool, golf, and tennis court, it’s no wonder why this property was snapped up quickly. But the Westport home isn’t the only property of Weinstein’s that’s gone on the market recently. He recently listed his seven bedroom, eight-and-a-half-bathroom home in Amagansett, the celebrity enclave in East Hampton, NY, for a whopping $12.4 million. The sprawling, 9000 sq ft home was built in 2000 and he bought it just three years ago for $11.4 million. Located on an estate measuring just under two acres on Gardiner’s Bay, the light-filled home embraces the indoor/outdoor aesthetic. A spacious family room and kitchen are ideal for busy families, while a screened water view dining porch is ideal for entertaining guests with sprawling views of the Atlantic. A vaulted master suite features its own private balcony, while there are also four additional family bedrooms and a self-contained two-bedroom guest/staff wing with its own entrance and three-car garage. A full furnished lower level has a processional screening room and gym, while the rooftop deck features exceptional views of Montauk.
