AQUINNAH, MA — A 340-acre compound on Martha’s Vineyard once owned by Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis is on the market for $65 million. Red Gate Farm was bought by the former first lady in 1979 and is now owned by her daughter, Caroline Kennedy.
The property in Aquinnah includes over a mile of Atlantic Ocean beachfront, a five-bedroom, 6,456-square-foot main house and a four-bedroom guest house.
The grounds features two garages, a caretaker’s house, pool, tennis court, exercise studio, hunting cabin, boat house, temperature-controlled storage building, blueberry patch, vegetable garden, dunes and two freshwater ponds. It is listed and globally marketed by Christie’s International Real Estate.
The property only contained the hunting cabin when Onassis bought it 40 years ago. The landscapes were designed by Onassis’s friend, Rachel Bunny Mellon, a noted horticulturist and landscape designer who redesigned the White House Rose Garden during Onassis’s tenure as first lady.

Renowned architect Hugh Newell Jacobson designed the Cape Cod-style main house and two-story guest house, which were completed in 1981. In 2000, six years after Onassis’s death, her daughter commissioned Dean of the Yale School of Architecture Deborah Berke to renovate and expand the main residence.
In a statement Thursday, Caroline Kennedy said:
“Forty years ago, my mother fell in love with Martha’s Vineyard. When she found Red Gate Farm, it was a perfect expression of her romantic and adventurous spirit. The dunes and ponds and rolling hills of Aquinnah gave her the chance to create a world where she could be so close to nature, close to her family and friends, and, most importantly, close to her beloved books. She even built a fairy treehouse for her grandchildren. Those grandchildren are grown so now it is time for us to follow my mother’s example and create our own worlds. We hope that a new family will treasure this place as we have for three generations. We are excited about the next chapter for Red Gate Farm.”
Onassis was the widow of President John F. Kennedy and Greek shipping magnate Aristotle Onassis.
