From private estates to popular hangouts, several notable properties hit the Hamptons market in the last week. Here’s a quick roundup of these multimillion-dollar parcels:

Burnt Pointe

Billionaire Stewart Rahr is apparently taking all his fun to Europe, having put his 24-acre estate in Wainscott up for sale for $95 million. The self-described “No. 1 King of All Fun” told The New York Times he wants to sell his 18,000-square-foot home in Georgica, known as Burnt Point, because he is now summering overseas. Commodities trader David Campbell had purchased the property for $10 million in 1996 and commissioned the late architect Francis Fleetwood to design the expansive 8-bedroom, 14.5-bath home. Pharmaceuticals billionaire Mr. Rahr bought the estate in 2004 for $45 million. Listed with Corcoran, the house features a library, a finished basement with media, game and workout rooms and a wine cellar. There’s also a professional greenhouse, boat house, private beach, dock and a waterside pool with infinity edge, hot tub and waterfall.

The Solés & Ruschmeyer’s

The sisters are for sale! Montauk hipster hotspots Solé East and Solé East Beach are both on the market and they’re expected to get more than $30 million, according to Curbed Hamptons. Located on Second House Road, the 69-room boutique hotel Solé East features 61 bungalow-like rooms and 8 garden cabana suites, as well as an adjacent 5.1-acre parcel. Set in the hamlet’s downtown, the 26-room Solé East Beach resort includes an additional .3 acres to the west with rights to develop an additional 4 to 6 units. Ruschmeyer’s, yet another playground for visiting hipsters, is also throwing in the towel after the season, according to Guest of a Guest. The owners are apparently asking $10 million.

Blankfein Puts House On Market

Goldman Sachs CEO Lloyd Blankfein is looking to unload his Sagaponack estate for $17 million, a jump up from his last attempt at selling it a few years ago for $14 million. The 7-bedroom, 5-full-bath home sits on 2.7 acres overlooking a 40-acre reserve on Parsonage Lane. Listed with Sotheby’s International Realty, the property also has a 45-foot pool, pool house and tennis court. This is Mr. Blankfein’s second Hamptons home—he purchased an Ocean Road estate in Bridgehampton for $28.25 million in 2012.
