Meg Ryan has officially closed the deal on her stunning Hamptons property, selling the retreat for its full $15.25 million asking price.

The 64-year-old actress first listed the picturesque dwelling, which sits on a lush 1.5-acre parcel in Bridgehampton, NY, in June before finding a buyer just one month later.

In July, the listing was updated to reflect that the property was "pending" sale, indicating that Ryan had accepted an offer, although the terms of the deal remained under wraps.

Now, the Wall Street Journal has revealed that the sale has officially closed, with Ryan securing the entire $15.25 million asking price.

Ryan, who has become almost as well known for her high-end home renovations as she is for her beloved romantic-comedy roles, purchased the Bridgehampton property for $13.5 million in 2024.

The "Sleepless in Seattle," "You've Got Mail," and "When Harry Met Sally" star is certainly no stranger to making major real estate moves.

She previously sold a home in Montecito, CA, for $16.8 million—more than $6 million above the price she paid for the property just three years earlier.

Ryan worked with Evan R. Kulman of Compass on the Bridgehampton listing, while Douglas Elliman agents Paul Brennan and Martha Gundersen represented the buyer in the deal.

"Down a long gated driveway on a secluded and beautifully landscaped flag lot, this exceptional Bridgehampton South residence offers sophisticated luxury living in one of the Hamptons' most coveted locations," the listing describes.

"Perfectly positioned near ocean beaches, renowned restaurants, and the heart of the village, the property seamlessly combines privacy, elegance, and convenience."

Offering nearly 5,000 square feet of living space, including five bedrooms and 6.5 bathrooms, the home was originally built in 2016 but has undergone several updates in the years since, upgrades that have carefully preserved its "timeless architecture" while adding several modern touches.

Upon entering the dwelling, guests are greeted with classic Hamptons charm and modern luxury, offering vaulted ceilings, five fireplaces, a sunken living room, formal dining room, and an expansive chef's kitchen designed for entertaining.

The residence is packed with custom touches that reflect Ryan's personal style, including a cozy library that comes complete with its own bathroom.

Moving to the main living spaces, the chef's kitchen features a stunning marble island, neutral-toned cabinetry, and state-of-the-art appliances.

Adjacent to the kitchen, there is an adorable breakfast nook with French doors that open up to the perfectly manicured grounds.

The dining area offers a much more formal area for guest entertaining, having been stylishly designed around a beautiful fireplace, while glass doors help to flood the space with natural light and offer stunning views of the surrounding landscape.

Additional living space can be found on the lower level, which includes a large guest suite, kitchenette, secondary living area, and a fully equipped gym.

Meanwhile, the primary suite is the epitome of luxury, featuring a private sitting area, steam shower, and a balcony overlooking the picturesque grounds.

The home is also equipped with a geothermal heating and cooling system, offering an environmentally conscious approach to luxury living.

Outside, the property delivers the quintessential Hamptons lifestyle. A heated Gunite swimming pool anchors the backyard, while a covered porch with an outdoor fireplace creates an inviting setting for summer evenings.

The sprawling compound also benefits from a full-property security system, providing privacy and peace of mind.

Seclusion was clearly top of mind when the home was designed, with a long driveway and tree-lined parcel helping to protect the dwelling from any prying eyes—a must for an actress of Ryan's renown.

However, it's unclear just how regularly the actress has used the property, having purchased it just two years ago.

"Rarely found in such a premier location, the property also offers room for expansion, further creating the opportunity for a true legacy compound. Combining sophistication, scale, privacy, and future potential, this is an extraordinary offering in the heart of Bridgehampton South," the listing noted.
