New Home with Controversial History Sells for $7mm

41 Hampton RoadThis week, a new 9,500 square foot home at 41 Hampton Road was sold for $7mm. The site is notable, because the builder tore down a historic Tudor home there without permission while an application was pending with the Committee for Historic Preservation.

Before the CHP could complete their deliberations, the owner sought permission from the Board of Architectural Review to tear down 50% of the house.

Neighbors were shocked to find that the 1920’s home, designed by noted architect W. Stanwood Phillips, had been razed. It is not known whether any portion of the original home remains.The original home was torn down without permission from the Committee for Historic Preservation

Though builder Eilon Amidor skirted the law with the demolition, he ultimately paid only $3,000 in fines. Now, he has sold the new 6 bedroom, 7.5 bath home for $7 mm.
