Exclusive: Countess Luann de Lesseps' Sag Harbor home blends Hamptons country style with eclectic, personal pieces – 'It's knowing how to mix things and not going over the top'

In recent months, former Real Housewife of New York, Countess Luann de Lesseps has been traveling the world on her cabaret tour, but where does she reside when she's home? The Countess has homes in both The Hamptons and New York City. Icons tend to have iconic houses, so Homes & Gardens caught up with her to learn all about how de Lesseps decorates in her Hamptons estate.

Lesseps shared that she's lived in the Hamptons for almost 30 years, residing in two different properties across that period. The first house was in Bridgehampton. She states: 'The original house that you see on the show is a barn that we brought from Pennsylvania. We actually brought the beams and everything and built the house around this barn conversion structure. I love the look of old barn beams, especially for the Hamptons, which is very country. But I did a very English bar in my house.' She smiled conspiratorially, 'I don't know if you remember it, but I had a very long bar. We had many fights in that bar.'
