Pros
The 15-seat Dolby theater is state-of-the-art and the temperature-controlled wine cellar can hold 1,600 bottles. A sandy beach is within walking distance.

Pros
Nestled in the woods, the house has a comfy vacation-home feel, with lots of nice outdoor spaces for relaxing. The dressing area in the primary bedroom suite could accommodate an office or nursery.
Cons
The bedrooms are on the small side. The bathrooms and kitchen could use updating, and the deck needs refinishing.
