High Heels on High Rises Column

Luxury spec homes no longer surprise me; after working 10 years in Dubai real estate and two in Los Angeles I have seen my share of “dream homes” with multi-million-dollar price tags. Walk-in closets reminiscent of boutiques on Rodeo Drive, infinity pools that spill out over hills with skyline views, and garages featuring limited edition super cars like Louvre exhibits art are now standard features in today’s McMansions.

So what exactly defines a $100M listing? These properties represent real estate extraordinary – few homes worldwide have sold with 9-digit closings – so get your walking shoes on as we tour some of the most lavish properties ever built…

90 Jule Pond Drive in Southampton New York with an asking price of $145 Million dollars has recently gone under contract and set an all-time record sale! What makes this property special is both its magnitude and location – both features which set this estate apart. This 42-acre compound offers the longest stretch of ocean frontage in the Hamptons. Originally, this classic estate was created by Henry Ford II – one of his many descendants from his automotive dynasty – in the 1950s. Important details from the original family estate were preserved, such as distinctive ceilings, Italian marble fireplaces and antique hardware from a European chateau. The main house features 12 bedrooms in just 20,000 square feet on 42 acres – proving its potential as an ultimate Hamptons hotspot!
