Reebok Founder’s M Mansion Kicks Off Most Expensive New Listings

Slip off your shoes and walk with us as we count down this week’s most expensive new listings on realtor.com®. Now that you’re relaxed, we’ll share our thrill at seeing this week’s priciest property in a location other than California, Florida, or New York.

Sitting just outside of Boston proper, the $90 million estate of shoe guru and Reebok founder Paul Fireman is a green swath in greater Beantown. Considering this is a home within minutes of a major metro area, we’re hard pressed to find a comparable for the size and scope of this 26,000-square-foot mansion.

No home this week was able to keep up with the blazing pace set by the Brookline mansion—our second-place finisher can be had for $40 million less than the top spot. And when a $50 million Miami mansion is only runner-up, it’s a big week for pricey properties.

We were also introduced to a Palm Beach estate that lost any chance of becoming a landmark home in the city, a Malibu mansion perched high above the Pacific Ocean, and a brand-new Miami Beach home built for a Swiss doctor who must have decided against living in South Florida.

We’ll let you decide which pricey property suits you best. Just do it…

1. 150 Woodland Rd, Brookline, MA

Price: $90,000,000 ($3,381 per square foot)
Luxe factor: This nearly 14-acre estate is basically within the Boston city limits, while remaining secluded from the surrounding city. The property belongs to Paul Fireman, the founder of Reebok, and his massive mansion offers over 26,000 square feet of living space. Referred to as an “emerald island” in the listing, the grounds include a “horticultural encyclopedia of specimen plantings.”

2. 3085 Munroe Dr, Miami, FL

Price: $50,000,000 ($3,708 per square foot)
Luxe factor: Dubbed Casa Bahia, this waterfront stunner is three stories of gorgeous glory in Coconut Grove. It’s only a year old, but the homeowner—Colombian interior designer Catalina Echavarria—is ready to spend more time traveling and visiting her home in Bali, according to the Wall Street Journal.

3. 100 El Bravo Way, Palm Beach, FL

Price: $29,750,000 ($2,078 per square foot)
Luxe factor: Bouncing back on the market with a price reduction, this oceanfront manse was up for sale in March for $32.95 million. The seven-bedroom home comes with a storied past, but renovations done in the early 2000s mean that it’s not eligible for local landmark status. Landmark or not, a well-connected buyer will wind up with a heck of a consolation prize, because the mansion has “commercial-grade Cisco networking equipment installed.”

4. 29208 Cliffside Dr, Malibu, CA

Price: $27,950,000 ($3,642 per square foot)
Luxe factor: On a bluff overlooking the Pacific Ocean, this European-inspired mansion sits on coveted Point Dume. Gated and private, the six-bedroom home comes with over an acre of land in one of the country’s priciest locales.

5. 440 S Hibiscus Dr, Miami Beach, FL

Price: $20,000,000 ($2,985 per square foot)
Luxe factor: Just finished earlier this year, this thoroughly modern masterpiece looks out onto Biscayne Bay. Built for Swiss eye doctor Aldo Scarpatetti, the six-bedroom home features a luxurious home theater, a rooftop deck, and an outdoor kitchen designed for entertaining.
