A eye-popping megamansion in Massachusetts has earned a place in the history books after becoming the most expensive property to hit the market in the Bay State.
Perhaps surprisingly, the home—which has been listed for an impressive $40 million—cannot be found on the famously pricey island of Nantucket, nor in the capital of Boston. Instead, it is located in the picturesque town of Duxbury, one of the wealthiest areas in the New England state.
The estate boasts more than 1,000 feet of beach frontage, as well as a private pier and an awe-inspiring 14,000 square feet of living space.
Nestled on an incredibly lush and verdant 25-acre lot, the property affords residents a great deal of privacy and quiet.
“This extraordinary waterfront estate spans 25 park-like acres with 1, 060 feet of water frontage, private pier and sandy beach and provides privacy, panoramic ocean views and quiet luxury,” the Realtor.com® listing reads.

Grand rooms, cathedral ceilings, water views, and gorgeous decor add up to an oceanside mansion to die for.
Billed as a “one-of-a-kind legacy property,” the home features many modern upgrades that do not diminish any of its original beauty.
Graceful living is the theme in this 14,000-square-foot dwelling with luxurious details, including hardwood floors and stone and brick fireplaces in multiple rooms.
Along with the impressive main house, this package comes with an array of outbuildings, including a greenhouse, an intimate guesthouse on the sandy beach, a dock house near the private pier, and even a barn with storage and a separate apartment.
Outside, the estate features a pavilion with a kitchen and stunning gardens.

If sun, sea, and sand aren’t your thing, then look no further than the glittering pool, which sits in the perfectly manicured backyard of the property.
Love history? There’s an incredible 17th-century structure, known as the Alexander Standish Antique House, which can be found on the grounds.
The structure was built by the son of an actual Mayflower pilgrim, Myles Standish, an English military officer who settled in the area.
And should the home’s future residents desire a taste of a more metropolitan area, Boston is located just 35 miles away.
