" Update:\u00A0After six months without a buyer in sight, Andy Warhol&amp;#039;s former Hamptons home is off the market...well at least part of it is.\u00A0 According to The Real Deal, gallery owner and noted Warhol collector\u00A0Adam Lindemann purchased\u00A0a\u00A05.7-acre chunk of the 30-acre estate. Lindemann paid $50 million for the property \u2014\u00A0which includes the main house and several cottages \u2014 making it the most expensive home ever sold in Montauk, New York. The former owner,\u00A0J.Crew&amp;#039;s CEO Mickey Drexler, originally listed the full estate for $85 million in June, 2015. He still retains ownership of the approximately 24-acre horse farm on the property.  The grit of New York City is synonymous with pop art master Andy Warhol, but his real estate holdings went beyond his famed Manhattan studio, known as &amp;quot; The Factory.&amp;quot; He actually owned a beautiful seaside retreat in Montauk, New York as well, where Warhol and his friends could escape their raucous city life. And now, according to 6sqft.com, the 30-acre estate is on the market for $85 million, nearly as much as the most expensive Warhol artwork ever sold. Warhol purchased the compound in 1972, along with his friend and collaborator, filmmaker Paul Morrissey. The pair paid just $225,000 total for the entire property, as Montauk was not yet a sought after vacation spot.  But Warhol&amp;#039;s presence in Montauk, and the high profile friends he brought there -- including Mick Jagger, John Lennon, Jackie O, and Elizabeth Taylor -- quickly cemented the area as the &amp;quot;it&amp;quot; place to be. After Warhol, the spacious estate passed hands several times, and the current owner is Mickey Drexler, the CEO of J. Crew. Drexler bought the property for $27 million in 2007, before undertaking a full renovation of the estate, which includes six cottages, a horse farm with two barns, and four acres of buildable land.  Take a closer look at the estate in the photos below.        "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
