April’s sale of 5 Cameron Way in Southampton Village was an eye-catcher as far as celebrity home sales go. It was the home of ABC News anchor George Stephanopoulos and Ali Wentworth, the actress and author. The actual final sale price was a mystery, until now. Transfer records revealed this week that the property changed hands for $5.7 million.
The power couple bought the 4,800-square-foot, five bedroom, six-and-a-half bathroom home in 2013 for $4.5 million. They sought to flip the house in 2016, putting it on and off the market and knocking the price tag down from about $7 million to a hair shy of $6 million. The discount off the last asking price comes out to $295,000.
The 1.47 acres of gated and hedged land isolates the home’s majestic private library and master suite, coffered ceilings in the living room, and a marble center island and dual refrigerators in the kitchen. Other amenities on site include a bunk-bed guest room, a gym, a wet bar, and a 1,000-bottle cellar.
Ms. Wentworth is an icon of comedy television, appearing in “Felicity” and “In Living Color,” as well as Jerry Seinfeld’s TV girlfriend in the famous “Soup Nazi” episode of “Seinfeld.” Her latest book is “Happily Ali After: And Other Fairly True Tales.” Mr. Stephanopoulos entered the television scene after a stint working on President Bill Clinton’s 1992 campaign for the White House, and communications director. He now hosts ABC’s “This Week.”
