Love might heal, but $30 million isn’t bad either.

Martin Varsavsky, an Argentine businessman based in Spain, has put beloved Luna Farm, the site of the annual Love Heals fundraiser for HIV/AIDS awareness, on the market.

The 18-plus-acre Hamptons farm is listed for $30 million with custom builder/broker Michael Davis.

The property, at 276 Parsonage Lane in Sagaponack, includes a 19th-century farmhouse with five bedrooms, three full bathrooms and two half-bathrooms. The farm also has silos and a rustic barn with working stables.

The property comes with a heated pool and a trail to the beach. The owner could also subdivide into three lots of 2.2 acres each, plus a more than 12-acre agricultural reserve. (And if that’s not enough nature for you, the property abuts a 14-acre reserve to its north.)

BUY THE FARM: For $30 million, you can get the 18-plus-acre Luna Farm in Sagaponack. The property includes a five-bedroom house.

“It would make a great family compound,” Davis says.

According to Davis, prices for land or tear-downs in Sagaponack are now 25 percent higher than they were at their peak in 2007.

In May, Davis sold an eight-bedroom home that sits on 2.3 acres on Hedges Lane, complete with a fully restored 1840s guest cottage, saltwater pool, spa, pool house and tennis court for $19.25 million a week after completing it.

One day later, he sold a $22.5 million English farmhouse-style home on Parsonage Lane that came with a fully restored 250-year-old barn, carriage house, pool, spa, pool house and tennis court on 71/2 acres abutting an agricultural reserve.

Wolkoff homer

It’s the busy season indeed for Stephanie Winston Wolkoff, the high-profile fashion director of next month’s Fashion Week. The 6-foot-1 beauty has just bought a new home with her husband, David. It’s a four-bedroom, 5 ¹/‚‚ -bathroom, $7.075 million co-op at 510 Park Ave.

Word is that the new digs have more space for the couple and their three children than their current home at 791 Park Ave.

Sighting

Michele Kleierand daughters Samantha Kleier Forbes and Sabrina Kleier Morgenstern, of Gumley Haft Kleier, trailed by their HGTV camera crew as they walked into the offices of HarperCollins, which is launching their dishy real estate novel, “Hot Property,” next month. Congrats also to Samantha and hubby JP on the birth of their daughter, Caroline Lilly, little sister to Chase.

We hear . . .

That real estate moguls Joseph Moinian, Joseph Sitt and Ziel Feldman, along with Post Home section columnist Barbara K, will participate in the Aug. 13 Beast Roar spinning event at Amagansett Square to benefit the Max Cure Foundation pediatric-cancer charity.

Grin & Barrett

British novelist Plum Sykes might have written the book on “Bergdorf Blondes,” but celebrity stylist John Barrett is the man who chemically created them. Now Barrett, of Bergdorf Goodman’s top-floor John Barrett Salon, wants to sells his snazzy Greenwich Village loft. The one-bedroom, two-bathroom condo at 65 W. 13th St. is 1,600 square feet and on the market for $2.7 million. It could convert to a two-bedroom and comes with its own private, landscaped terrace.

Featured in Elle Decor, the apartment was designed for entertaining and has 14-foot ceilings and an open floor plan. The building includes a gym, playroom and common roof deck with a gas grill.

Ric Swezey of Town Residential has the listing.

Tall order

Playing professional basketball until you are 44 isn’t easy. That’s what former Atlanta Hawks star Kevin Willis did.

What also isn’t easy is finding a suitable apartment when, like Willis, you’re 7 feet tall.

Now on a Manhattan home search, Willis recently looked at 232 W. 15th St., an impressive, 5,000-square-foot, six-bedroom, five-bathroom townhouse listed for $10.995 million. The residence comes with five fireplaces, an indoor 8-foot-deep pool, a sauna, a private roof deck and a double-height solarium. That all sounds good, but there’s a problem: The ceiling height was too low for Willis.

Willis, who retired from the NBA in 2007 after a season with the Dallas Mavericks, is co-founder of the Willis & Walker clothing business, specializing in custom outfits for the tall set.

Listing brokers Maggie Kent and David Roger Grossman of Core declined to comment.
