Abstract: We prove a Hölder estimate near infinity for solutions to the two-valued minimal surface equation over $\mathbb {R}^{2} \setminus \{0\},$ and give a Bernstein-type theorem in case the solution can be extended continuously across the origin. The main results follow by modifying methods used to study exterior solutions to equations of minimal surface type.
