The sellers, Medallion Financial Corp.’s Alvin and Andrew Murstein, paid jut $700,000 for the property in 2010, according to the New York Post.

Burkle, Clooney and Gerber are developing a luxury home and golf community on a 500-acre tract of land near the site. The Dune Deck – an eight-acre facility on the ocean — would presumably become part of that project. [NYP]Christopher Cameron
