A Southampton Village home built in 1968 for film actress Veronica Balfe Cooper and her second husband, plastic surgeon Dr. John Converse, has hit the market for the first time, asking $12.95 million.

Ms. Cooper was the widow of two-time Academy Award-winner Gary Cooper, who died in 1961. She was predeceased by her second husband in 1981, and died in Southampton in 2000.

The current owners of the residence at 208 Pond Lane fronting Lake Agawam are artist Maria Cooper Janis — the daughter of Ms. Cooper and Gary Cooper — and husband Byron Kanis, a renowned concert pianist.

The 2,300-square-foot home on 1.8 acres with 220 feet of lakefront has five bedrooms and three bathrooms. A pool overlooks the pond.

Douglas Elliman Real Estate has the listing.
