In 1981, architect Hugh Newell Jacobson designed both the main house and the guest house. In 2000, Caroline Kennedy renovated and expanded the main house with the help of Deborah Berke , dean of the Yale School of Architecture.

Now, the 340-acre estate includes a 6,456-square-foot main house, guest house, hunting cabin, barn, boathouse, storage building, and two garages.

Its amenities include over a mile of private beachfront, a pool, tennis court, exercise studio, vegetable garden, and blueberry patch.
