HERE’S a good investment! A family compound bought for $150,000 in the 1970s is now on the market for $9.5 million. The seller is artist Robert Hooke, a Vietnam vet who got his start in
finance on Wall Street. The sculptor owns a 4-acre property at 5 Peconic Ave. in Noyack, NY, that includes a pond bought for $15,000. It’s part of Northampton Shores, a 100-year-old waterfront community, and is adjacent to the Elizabeth A. Morton Nature Reserve. The compound is made of three separate parcels. The first is a 1.4-acre lot with a two-story home on a pond. The adjacent 1.66-acre lot comes with a tennis court but could also house another residence. The third lot has a pond and a bathhouse. The brokers are Hara Kang, Justin Agnello and James Keogh of Douglas Elliman.
