There’s Plenty of Land to Spread Out in This Week’s Most Expensive New Listings

It’s the time of year when many of us are thinking—no, obsessing—about a summer escape.  So maybe it’s no surprise that warm-weather getaway spots figured prominently in this week’s most expensive new listings on realtor.com®.

Sure, they’re pricey, but getting away from it all—especially without sacrificing a high-end lifestyle—doesn’t come cheap. You already knew that, right?

Take this sprawling Rancho Santa Fe ranch that combines land with luxury housing that hit the market at No. 1 this week. If you’re the type who hankers for acreage and horse stables in Southern California’s sunny clime, this place is worth a look.

Perhaps your idea of decompressing involves surrounding yourself with water on all sides. In that case, have we got the place for you. Places actually: a grouping of islands in the tropical oasis of Connecticut. (It’s quite beautiful there in the summer, trust us.) We’re betting that this stunning rock formation looks picturesque year-round.

On the isle of Manhattan, there’s a completely reimagined industrial building that’s been transformed from a former warehouse into a luxury home with bunches of bling finishes. (Who doesn’t love glass block?)

Read on for more insane details on this week’s priciest listings.
