The force behind the (now-defunct) C. Wonder brand and former husband of fashion maven Tory, entrepreneur and investor Christopher Burch has called the Hamptons home — well,o ne of his homes — for more than 20 years. Despite his high profile, Burch is something of a homebody during the season, preferring garden-fresh meals to sceney restaurant dinners, and entertaining scores of guests at his Southampton residence (complete with a pool house from his new luxury tiny-home venture, Cocoon9). Here’s how things add up for him on the East End.
0 Number of times a week Burch eats out. He prefers to dine in on fresh tomatoes and artichokes from the back garden of his 2¾-acre property, along with steak, salmon or homemade sushi.
2 Number of times Burch swims in the ocean each summer, usually hitting the beach at Gin Lane.
10 Wilson and Prince rackets the avid tennis player—Burch competed during his time at Ithaca College—keeps on hand to lend out to guests.
87 Pairs of personalized loafers from Shipton & Heneage and Belgian Shoes — embroidered with affirmations like “love you,” “smile” and “magical” — he keeps afoot.
100 House guests he’ll entertain throughout the season, with frequent visitors including couture bridal designer Mark Ingram.
250 Tate’s Bake Shop chocolate-chip cookies he’ll buy this summer (he says he’s trying to cut back) from the Southampton flagship.
480 Bottles of Hint water he consumers over the course of the summer out east — five a day on average.
6,000 Approximate square footage of Burch’s relatively modest — by Southampton standards — ranch-style home, whose interiors are by coveted NYC-based designer Christopher Maya.
$75,000 Starting price of an ultra-mod, 180-square-foot bungalow from his prefab-home startup Cocoon9, one of which he uses as his pool house and guestroom.
