Every price on this page is an asking price on an active listing, taken from the MLS listings as of our latest check. An estate here is a home asking $1,000,000 or more and under $5,000,000.

A median needs three estates or it is left out.

Each row of the lot-size and city tables below opens the estates behind it, so a count can be checked against the listings it counts. The city table lists the twelve cities with the most estates.

This page leaves a lot out on purpose. It does not read remarks, finishes or amenities, and it says nothing about who an estate is for. What it can do is count the listings, size them by stated lot and floor area and show where each one is.
