The Wainscott home of Thomas Gilbert Sr.—the hedge fund manager who was shot and killed on January 4 in Manhattan, a murder of which his son, Thomas Gilbert Jr., has been accused—has been on the market for $11.5 million at least since December.

At 8 Georgica Association Road, the five-bedroom, four-bath, 3,800-square-foot home is on 2.5 acres overlooking an 18-acre reserve, according to listings with Zillow and Douglas Elliman.

The residence is in the exclusive Georgica Association, whose members have tennis privileges, an ocean beach club with a lifeguard, and access to Georgica Pond, the listing notes. The residence also has a heated pool.

An article in Friday’s New York Times reported that Mr. Gilbert, who owned a hedge fund called Wainscott Capital Partners, had been in the process of selling the family’s second home as part of an effort to downsize. That effort also included moving from a brownstone on the Upper East Side to the Beekman Place apartment where he was found dead of a gunshot wound.

Zillow’s website said the home had been listed with Douglas Elliman since December 11, 2014.

Previously listed with Brown Harris Stevens, the property has been on the market since at least December 2, when Curbed Hamptons featured it in its “Pricespotter” slot.

The East Hampton Town tax assessor’s office’s final tax rolls list Mr. Gilbert and Shelley Gilbert as the property owners of 8 Georgica Association Road.

Hamptons Rental Market Remains Alive and Well

To paraphrase Mark Twain, reports of the demise of the Hamptons summer-rental market are greatly exaggerated. “Any hint that the Hamptons rental market is anything but robust is completely wrong,” said Corcoran associate broker Gary DePersia in East Hampton. An interesting dynamic is stirring in the Hamptons vacation-rental market. Although there has been an unprecedented rise in short-term rentals and the aftershocks of the COVID-19 pandemic linger, it has been a bumper crop year for Wall Street, interest rates have remained steady and a new breed of demanding customer is emerging. Despite it all, the Hamptons vacation-rental market remains as ... 19 Jun 2025 by Joseph Finora
