Key Points:

  • A 14,000-square-foot oceanfront property on Dune Road, featuring a main residence, guest house, and beach tunnel, went into contract recently; it was originally part of a larger estate designed by Grosvenor Atterbury.
  • The current seller, Ann Tenenbaum, and her late husband Thomas H. Lee purchased the home in 2001 for $16.2 million and rebuilt it twice, including after a 2013 fire.
  • The estate has historical significance, having been the summer residence of ink manufacturer Frank Wiborg and later owned by Jazz Age socialite Sara Murphy, who inspired F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel "Tender Is the Night."
  • The original 30-room home was largely destroyed
