      I like Hickory Hill, majestically Federal style, in a peaceful area with lot of green grass and trees and yet not far from the action in D.C. The estate had been changed with each new owner, saw pics of the original 1870 house and it's completely unrecognizable to what it is today.

    You don't see many families that were at the heart of a country's history who took care to preserve its history, heritage and culture.

    And that more than anything else is their uniqueness.

    Jack and Jackie owned Hickory Hill in 1955 before selling it to Bobby and Ethel.. (Edit: Jack and Jackie lived in Hickory Hill for barely a year before moving to Georgetown. The house was sold to his parents in 1956 who rented it to Bobby and Ethel, who later purchased it."

    The Cape Cod Compound is my favorite of all of them. We lived on the Cape and it was interesting to see them on their way to church or out and about doing what Cape folk enjoy. Jackie had her hands full with John if he was near his cousins, totally out of her control. Those were the best days.

    I had to look up the current dollar value of the Palm Beach house in 1933, which was $110,000.00. Today, that 100k would be worth $2,600,000.00. What happened to our money? $2,6 seems right. Today, that house was just sold for $70 million.

    I'd always heard that JFK & Jackie bought Hickory Hill first but sold it to Ethel & Bobby after Jackie lost their daughter, Arabella. Are there any videos of Ted & Joan's house on Squaw Island, or the Shriver's house that was also not far from 'the big house'? We were just in Boston, then down on the Cape back in June, so of course we checked out the 'Kennedy stuff', along with a 'drive down by the compound'. It was a bucket list item so any part of it we were able to see, we were happy with :)
