There’s only so much land along the coast of California, so it’s a rare thing when a four-acre spread set on a high bluff with more than 300 feet of direct beach frontage comes to market in Orange County’s tightly packed Laguna Beach. Owned by the same family for almost 30 years and now commensurately priced for sale according to its rarity at $50 million, the private and gated acreage comprises 11 contiguous parcels with three residential structures, rolling lawns and grassy terraces bordered by mature greenery, secured access to the beach, and a crescent-shaped terrace appropriately known as "The Ledge" that's notched into the cliff above the sand. A different kind of residential rarity in Chicago is a 7,400-square-foot ode to monochromatic minimalism and moody luxury, a one-of-a-kind live-work space dubbed the “Batcave” that recently went viral on Instagram and is now available to its next superhero owner with an asking price of—Pow!—$2.5 million.
