The house has stayed in the Kennedy family for years, but now it?s on the market for?take a breath?$65,000,000.

It?s a lot of money, but Onassis built out the land with her signature good taste and attention to detail. The 6,456-square-foot main house is classic New England with its shingle-clad facade and understated interior style. Designed by Hugh Newell Jacobsen and later renovated by Yale School of Architecture Dean, Deborah Berke, the home is all about hosting and socializing.
