New East Hampton Compound Offers Private Red Clay Tennis Retreat
A newly built 2026 rental compound in East Hampton Village South was listed January 4, featuring a sunken red clay tennis court alongside resort-style amenities and close walkability to Main Street and Maidstone Beach. The property’s scale and private tennis facility make it a rare seasonal option for players and groups seeking clay-court practice steps from the village.
A 16,000 +/- square foot summer compound at the end of a gated cul-de-sac in East Hampton Village South was listed January 4, bringing an uncommon private red clay court to the local rental market. Sited on roughly 2 manicured acres, the newly built rental offers 11 bedrooms, 12 full bathrooms and 2 half baths across a main residence, two pool houses and a legal guest cottage.
The property’s tennis amenity is a sunken red clay court set amid mature perimeter hedging, complemented by a heated saltwater pool and multiple outdoor entertaining zones. Covered patios and intentional indoor-outdoor design underscore the estate’s appeal for group stays and seasonal living. Practical household features include a two-car attached garage and ample on-site parking, making the compound a turnkey option for summer rental use.
Location will matter to players and families. The compound sits south of the highway, a short distance from the village and the Hampton jitney stop, and is one block from Main Street with Maidstone Beach minutes away. Those seeking clay-court practice without a private club commute will find the setup unusually convenient for Village South.
For tennis players, clay courts provide a different training surface than hard courts, favoring slide-based movement and endurance work. The sunken design offers added privacy and wind protection, but clay also requires specialized maintenance and play scheduling. Verify court availability, upkeep responsibilities and any guest access rules with the listing agent before booking or arranging organized sessions.
The arrival of a compound with this scale and a private clay court shifts expectations for high-end seasonal rentals in the Hamptons. It presents opportunities for small tournament-style gatherings, coach-led clinics, or concentrated practice weeks for players looking to work on clay-specific skills while enjoying village amenities. The presence of multiple pool houses and a legal guest cottage supports multi-family or team stays.
