If the shoe fits, wear it. And if the Hamptons estate of a late shoe magnate is a good fit, buy it.

Vince Camuto’s 15-acre Villa Maria estate in Water Mill, NY, has entered contract after a decade on and off the market, Women’s Wear Daily reports.

The identity of the buyer is unknown. The final price paid for the lavish property, which most recently asked a sky-high $72 million, is also a mystery.

Camuto, who cofounded Nine West in the 1970s and died in 2015 of prostate cancer at age 78, and his wife and business partner, Louise, first listed the estate for $100 million in 2008. They purchased it in 2005, when it was reportedly run-down, for $35 million.

Though it languished on the sales market, Villa Maria spent some time as a rental. Alex Soros, son of billionaire George Soros, shuttled models to and from the property — and even hosted sports stars, such as Joakim Noah — during his tenancy in summer 2016.

After their 2005 purchase, the Camutos spent five years renovating Villa Maria. Work included enlarging the existing shingled home into a four-story, 20,000-square-foot mansion, Architectural Digest reported, and the construction of a connected carriage house.

Today, Villa Maria has 11 bedrooms (the master suite alone has six rooms), 12 bathrooms and a powder room. Beyond the massive main house, the grounds contain a cottage for guests, an all-weather tennis court, a heated pool and two pool pavilions. Villa Maria also enjoys 1,100 feet of waterfront on Mecox Bay.

Brothers Zach and Cody Vichinsky of Bespoke Real Estate most recently represented this listing.
