CLOSING SOON. Kenjockety, the 6.7-acre Lloyd Harbor estate once owned by Robin Gibb of the Bee Gees, is in contract. The Tudor home first went up for sale in 2002 for $17.5 million. Its current asking price with listing agent Suzanne Wehren of Shawn Elliott Luxury Homes & Estates, who only got the listing in January, is $8.999 million. (She raised the price by about $500,000 from its previous listing with Daniel Gale Sotheby's International Realty.) The selling agent is Maria Siringo, also with Shawn Elliott.
Gibb owned the historic 1926 mansion in the early 1980s, when he reportedly bleached the floors and painted the walls white. It has since been completely renovated. There are seven bedrooms, seven baths, three half-baths, 10 fireplaces, a gunite pool and 500 feet of water frontage with deeded docking rights. The original architect was Bertram Grosvenor Goodhue, who designed St. Bartholomew's Church on Park Avenue in Manhattan.
A neighbor is purchasing the property, says Wehren. -- Valerie Kellogg
