Hamptons rental season has begun, and you can rent Anderson Cooper’s English Country house for a mere $150,000 for the season. The pedigree does not end there: The waterfront home is where the late Budd Schulberg, WHO wrote the Academy Award-winning screenplay for the 1950’s film classic “On the Waterfront,” starring Marlon Brando, lived for decades.
The 1946-built home sits on 2.4 acres on Aspatuck Creek in Quiogue, near Westhampton Beach. Anderson is offering the home — fully renovated and designed by his mom, Gloria Vanderbilt — for $30,000 for June, $60,000 for July or $80,000 for August through Labor Day.
The six-bedroom, 5½-bathroom home is 3,654 square feet and comes with a pool. The great room includes a brick fireplace, cedar-vaulted ceiling, wood floors and French doors leading to the waterfront patio. There’s also a den with a brick fireplace and 60-inch TV, a chef’s kitchen and a dining area. The home also features an apartment above the garage, along with a “quaint” pool house with full bath and sitting room — “or spare sleeping quarters in a pinch,” according to the listing, from Douglas Elliman’s Enzo Morabito.
