Woolworth mansion gone from Prudential site

The listing for Winfield Hall, the Glen Cove estate built in 1917 for businessman F. W. Woolworth, has been removed from the Prudential Douglas EllimanWeb site. Nancy Donin, who had represented the property for the past year, says that the mansion has temporarily been removed from the market while negotiations are under way with a potential buyer who lives outside the United States.

The most recent asking price for the 16.30-acre spread was $19.5 million. In November, a source told REAL LI that the property’s owner, Martin Carey, had rejected an offer of $15 million from the Crown Prince of Dubai. At the time, Donin denied that report saying that the offer had been significantly higher, and that the potential buyer, whom she identified as “an Arab gentleman,” was not the Crown Prince of Dubai.

Carey, brother of former Gov. Hugh Carey, has had Winfield Hall on the market for several years, previously listing with Daniel Gale Sotheby’s International Realty.
