$250K/week private island is a bonkers ‘bubble’ from COVID-19 – New York Post

Even city dwellers with second homes are going stir-crazy with cabin fever, locked down in the Hamptons since March.

Many are taking crazy COVID money in the six and seven figures from renters escaping NYC and heading to locations even farther afield.

Like Maine.

Enter Noah Gordon, co-owner of House Island, which was known as a pre-COVID event space for people like Fox TV personality Jeanine Pirro, whose daughter Cristi married Zak Schwarzman there in 2017.

I was planning on adding a yacht club, but those plans are now on hold, says Gordon, who has done a massive pivot and transformed part of the island into a safe and secure haven for weekly rentals for $250,000 a week.

Gordons half of the island features three homes on 12 acres, with five beaches and panoramic views of Portland and Casco Bay.

The first home is a 4,000-square-foot five-bedroom; the second is a 3,200-square-foot three-bedroom; the third is a 900-square-foot two-bedroom.

No pool, but there is safety and security in spades, says Gordon, along with three helicopter takeoff and landing zones and deep-water anchorages for yachts.

Once you are in the bubble, you stay in the bubble, Gordon says. The listing broker is Dylan Eckardt, of Nest Seekers International.
