Katie Couric shows off her lavish Hamptons house

After this week announcing plans to become a daytime talk show host, Katie Couric has opened the doors of the home where she will be going to relax at the weekends.

The 54-year-old, who on Monday was revealed as ABC’s replacement for Oprah, showed off her seven bedroom country retreat in the Hamptons.

‘I decided that I’m really a beach person and would go to a house in the Hamptons much more often, especially since I have lots of great friends there,’ said Miss Couric who already owned a country house in Millbrook New York.

‘I wanted something casual and relaxed—something without a lot of trees. I didn’t want to be deep in the woods,’ she told Hamptons Cottages and Gardens magazine in an article by Andrea Hope Smith.

The former Today Show host paid $6.3 million for the two-storey home in East Hampton, New York.

She said she fell in love with it immediately. ‘The rooms were spacious and had lots of sun, and as soon as I walked in I could picture my family being there,’ she said.

‘Its proximity to town was convenient for my daughters, and it was close enough to the ocean, on a pretty street that wasn’t very busy. It met all the requirements.’ ‘I love doing all the typical things in the Hamptons, like making dinner with friends,’ she added. ‘The minute I walk in the door here, I’m able to exhale in a way that I can never quite do in the city.”

During the week, Katie Couric and her two daughters, Ellie and Carrie, live in an apartment worth a reported $3.2 million on Manhattan's Park Avenue.
