Jule Pond

Known as Fordune: 42 oceanfront acres built in 1960 for Henry Ford II and Anne McDonnell, who kept it after their divorce four years later. Once more than 200 acres, it now runs to a 20,000-square-foot manor, a carriage house, ponds, a six-car garage, and tennis and basketball courts. Sold for $105 million in August 2021.
