New England Homes with Star Power

Christie's recently put the spotlight on star-studded homes in honor of the 74th Annual Golden Globe Awards, including LandVest's Black Hole Hollow Farm in Cambridge, NY.

In honor of award season, LandVest would like to share with you some more places with star power.

Black Hole Hollow Farm

Cambridge, NY | $3,980,000 VT0756-1 How many country retreats inspired Bond films? Ian Fleming gained inspiration for several of his James Bond books from his visits here. Black Hole Hollow Farm's guest list also includes Princess Margaret, and Lord and Lady Glenconner.

English-style gardens, open pastures, several barns and guest houses surround this 18th-century renovated home. 948 acres in a quiet valley on the New York and Vermont border provides a serene, gracious setting.

It feels like a throwback to a time where kids ride bikes to the beach and neighbors greet one another along the narrow lanes between the grey-shingled houses. This tiny coastal community was home to Katharine Hepburn, who describes it best, "To me, it is well, as I said paradise.
