Beyond its beautiful beaches, bays, and lagoons is another type of eye candy native to the Hamptons: gorgeous, hidden real estate.
At the end of snaking driveways, with huge shrubs blocking any roadside view, some of the East End's most breathtaking homes are rarely seen — at least until now.

One of the most prestigious communities on Long Island, Southampton is also the most residential, with tons of bars, restaurants, and luxury boutiques. Tree cover is dense, hiding the celebrity summer homes of celebrities like Rachael Ray, Howard Stern, George Soros, Kelly Ripa, and Tory Burch.
