Kennedys disagree on sale of Cape house
Joan Bennett Kennedy has put her oceanfront Cape Cod home on the market for nearly $6.5 million, defying her children who moved last year to take legal control of her assets amid her continued battle with alcoholism.
The house is located on Squaw Island near the Kennedy compound in Hyannis Port. According to town of Barnstable property tax records, the 13-room, six-bedroom house sits on 1.18 acres and is valued at $3.7 million. The tax records list Joan B. Kennedy as the owner.
A Cape Cod real estate agent said the house may fetch $6 million because of the Kennedy mystique, but that it is worth closer to the $3 million it is assessed by the town of Barnstable.
”Perhaps because of the Kennedy allure they want to see if someone comes in and drops the money on it, but you can get a lot for $6 million,” said the real estate agent, who spoke on condition of anonymity.
