Nobody wants to buy the most infamous house in the Hamptons, but American Express is renting it for the summer

The Corcoran GroupGrey Gardens inspired a documentary and a Broadway play of the same name.Grey Gardens has gone corporate. The home - perhaps one of the most infamous in the Hamptons - will be rented all summer long by American Express, which plans to use it for special events, according to the New York Post.

Three-Michelin-starred restaurant Eleven Madison Park is said to be involved in the deal, but details, including the monthly rental price, are scarce.

It's still up for sale with a discounted price of $17.995 million - $2 million less than the owners of the home originally asked for when it listed in February. The Corcoran Group has the listing.

Anyone who saw the "Grey Gardens" documentary or Broadway play would likely balk at living in the home it was inspired by. After all, the home was in incredibly poor shape during the filming of the documentary, and it's even rumored to be haunted.

However, the East Hampton mansion now looks nothing like it did in the 1975 documentary that showcased the lives of Jackie Kennedy Onassis' ex-socialite relatives.

Journalist and author Sally Quinn purchased the mansion with her husband, the late Washington Post editor Ben Bradlee, for $220,000 in 1979. They completely rehabilitated it to its current splendor, according to The New York Times.
