On the property, there is over a mile of private beach with dunes, two ponds, a garden, a pool, a tennis court, and a fairy treehouse. Jackie built the fairy treehouse for her grandchildren. There is also a hunting cabin, a caretaker’s house, a barn, two garages (one that has an apartment), a boathouse, and even another storage building that is temperature controlled.

You could have tons of people living here!

Rachel Bunny Mellon, a friend of Jackie O’s, designed all of the landscapes. Architect Hugh Newell Jacobson is credited for designing the main home and guest house on the property.

In 2000, Caroline commissioned Yale School of Architecture Dean Deborah Berke to renovate and expand the main home.

If the house does indeed sell for around $65 million, it will set a record! It will become the most expensive single-family home on Martha’s Vineyard. As of right now, the record is set at just $32.5 million. What do you think about this very expensive, but very impressive property?
