The Clintons are back! Or, at least, former President Bill Clinton has already made the scene at the Amagansett rental that the presidential couple have rented for the second year in a row.
Bill and his Secret Service entourage made the scene on Sunday, according to local reports. The 2016 Democratic primary frontrunner, Hillary Clinton, will join her husband at their $100,000 rental later this week.
The sprawling waterfront home at 44 Broadview Road is the same house the Clintons rented last year, though the price has reportedly come down. The 6-bedroom, 6-bathroom home covers 7,000 square feet and sits high on a bluff overlooking Gardiners Bay, with manicured grounds in the 1.8-acre lot complete with inground pool
According to reports from the New York Post and Politico, this is hardly just a trip to the beach for the Clintons, who intend to use these two weeks in August to cavort with the moneyed class and add to Clinton’s campaign coffers.
Bill Clinton arrived in East Hampton this past Sunday for a two-week stay. Hillary will arrive by Aug. 20, just in time for the first of four major fundraisers on Saturday, Aug. 22 before the former Secretary of State jets off to a campaign stop in Cleveland (Aug. 27) and the Democratic National Committee meeting in Minnesota (Aug. 28.) She will be back in time for more Hamptons fundraisers on Aug. 30.
The home is owned by art collector Andre Nasser and his wife, Lois. The Nassers have owned the property since it was built in 2005, and rented it to the Clintons last year for $200,000. The listing, held by Vicky Thompson at Corcoran, had been advertised for $100,000 per week, but word is that the Clintons will get a cut rate.
