Alec Baldwin has recorded a video acting as a commercial for his own mansion. He is not having any luck in the market: being forced to reduce up to three times the initial price, he has decided to get involved with what he does best: speaking in front of a camera. “I fell in love with this place from the moment I came here. I’m always happier when I come, especially this time of year. I love it in winter. And you can no longer buy large plots of land, especially in Amagansett,” warns the actor to encourage potential buyers interested in purchasing a property in that privileged area of ??the Hamptons (New York).
Theirs is truly a huge property: four hectares (40,000 m2) that include a 930 m2 mansion and enough space to build an analogue at the other end without its occupants being able to see each other’s faces looking out the window. Beyond, another two hectares of agricultural reserve. Baldwin bought the farm and house in the mid-90s for 1.75 million dollars (1.6 in euros at the current exchange rate) and put it on the market for 26.6 million euros at the end of 2022. Given the little interest aroused, It lowered the price to 22.8 in January 2023, to 20.6 in June and now it has just lowered it again to 17.4 million euros.
The house dates back to 1740 and has been expanded and updated since then, mainly in 1996 and 2017, to currently offer 17 rooms distributed as follows: five bedrooms and design to build another two, seven full bathrooms and two toilets, kitchen-dining room , movie theater, wine tasting room, office, study room, lounge, wood-paneled library, a custom pavilion with fireplace (there are six fireplaces in total), two covered porches, and two balconies overlooking the nature preserve surrounding. It also has a swimming pool and spa as well as an orchard, barn and a cabin.
Baldwin, whom we began to know with Beetlejuice, fell in love with Kim Basinger in She Always Says Yes, starred in The Hunt for Red October, we saw him in The Departed and The Aviator and was nominated for an Oscar for The Cooler, sighed when in April 2022 the New Mexico prosecutor’s office dropped involuntary manslaughter charges against him due to the accident that cost the life of Halyna Hutchins, Rust’s director of photography.
