Overview

Gordon Pointe, the most expensive home listed in the United States, has entered the market with a staggering price tag of $295 million. Situated in Naples, Florida, within the upscale enclave of Port Royal, this approximately 9-acre compound offers unparalleled luxury and exclusivity.

Key Features

The centerpiece of this lavish estate is a main house spanning 11,500 square feet, boasting six bedrooms. Additionally, two guest houses, each exceeding 5,000 square feet, contribute to the estate’s expansive interior living space totaling 22,800 square feet. 

Nestled on a peninsula, Gordon Pointe provides an astonishing 1,650 feet of waterfront, complete with a private yacht basin and a T-shaped dock.

Value Beyond Size

While the sheer size of the three magnificent homes is impressive, co-listing agent Leighton Candler emphasizes that the true value lies in privacy, beach frontage, and substantial development potential. 

With over 200,000 square feet of residential development possible, the property offers a rare opportunity for significant expansion.

Development Potential

The property’s expansive acreage presents the potential for the construction of eight waterfront homes, allowing for customization and personalization according to the buyer’s vision. 

Despite the possibility of subdividing the property, the expectation is that a discerning buyer will maintain it as a private family compound.

History of Ownership

The acquisition of the Gordon Pointe property began in 1985 when John and Rhodora Donahue purchased the first parcel. 

John Donahue, a co-founder of a Pittsburgh-based investment management firm, gradually acquired additional parcels, ultimately transforming the area into an exclusive, gated compound enveloped by water. 

With a single private drive ensuring seclusion, Gordon Pointe epitomizes luxury living at its finest.
