A $150 million beach home for sale would be the Hamptons’ priciest ever — if it can find a buyer

The most expensive home for sale in the region is an oceanfront estate inSouthampton.

The compound, called La Dune, is likely to be used as a summer home for a small group of wealthy buyers. $100 million-plus sales are rare in the Hamptons.

La Dune is a four-acre area with two homes, two swimming pools and a sunken tennis court.

It has been difficult to find a buyer for the compound, which has a main residence built more than 100 years ago and a second home built in the 2000s.

If the house wasn't here, each one of them would be worth $50 million.

La Dune's price isn't just designed to grab attention.

"I believe this is a very realistic price point to attract buyers in this market place," saidElliott, who co-lists the home.

The estate is located on a large swath of beachfront along Gin Lane. It is one of the most exclusive areas in the world.

When it comes to real estate, location, location, is not a cliché. You are on the line of nothing but wealth.

The residence has been listed as a summer rental many times. A one-month stay would cost you more than one million dollars.
