Dick Cavett's Famed 'Tick Hall' In Montauk Lists For $62 Million

MONTAUK, NY — The famed "Tick Hall" in Montauk belonging to talk show host and author Dick Cavett was just listed by The Corcoran Group for $62 million.

The home, located at 165 Deforest Road, has been part of Hamptons and Montauk lore for 135 years, when it was first built by the infamous Stanford White as one of the “Seven Sisters” of shingled homes known as the Montauk Association.

The property, including the home and 19 acres overlooking the ocean in Montauk, is listed by Corcoran’s Karen Kelley and Tim Davis for $62 millon.

"The actual structure of how the current iteration of the home came to be is fascinating: Tick Hall tragically burned down in 1997 in an accident possibly linked to a roof repair, leaving only the chimney standing, and years of family heirlooms and antiques destroyed," a release from Corcoran said.

"Cavett and wife Carrie Nye vowed to build and exact replica on its place, not allowing any updates or even to fix any mistakes of the original home. With no plans remaining of the homes, the couple relied on photographs, their own memories, and even unorthodox methods like measuring the height of their actual pet dogs, because they had a picture of them jumping up on a windowsill. The rebuilding of the home was the subject of a 2003 documentary, 'From the Ashes: The Life and Times of Tick Hall,'" the release said.

Guests in the home have included Muhammad Ali, Sir Laurence Olivier, Tennessee Williams, Alec Baldwin and Woody Allen.
