Sally Hershberger, a hairdresser to the stars, has put her Hamptons home on the market for $2.75 million.
Known as the Butterfly House, the charming mid-century modernist residence was built in 1976.
It’s located at 6 Masthead Lane in East Hampton.

“It’s everything I love about a home,” Hershberger told Gimme Shelter. “It reminds me of great, classic California architecture. It felt like a treehouse to me — lush and organic, with complete privacy. The bay is right down the street. It has the feel of a Japanese wonderland.”

“The ‘butterfly’ roof design has been setting Long Island hearts aflutter since first seen in Marcel Breuer’s famed Geller House, and now this Hamptons landmark can be yours,” the listing notes.
Butterfly House, with its signature roofline, is the only example of this classic mid-century design in the Hamptons, said listing broker Jack Pearson of Compass, who shares the listing with Jeremy Dunham and Kyle Barisich.
