IF YOU fancy yourself as a Bond villain, then this might be the home for you.

The luxury lair – which appears to have its own 750-gallon shark tank – has hit the market for a staggering $100million (£77.8million).

It even appears to come with its own ‘shark tank’[/caption]

Nestled in a peninsula off Hamptons’ super wealthy Water Mill South neighbourhood in New York, the estate is made up of two separate properties.

The waterfront mansion offers breathtaking ocean views, 3,100 ft of exclusive shoreline and access to Mecox Bay via a private dock.

It also boasts a tennis court, gym, pool and spa, as well as a two-storey pool house and deck.

On the second property, the new owners can use its indoor basketball court, two-lane bowling alley and billiards room.

Whoever snaps up this lavish estate will also be able to fashion themselves as a 007 nemesis, with the property appearing to offer its very own 750-gallon shark tank.

Believed to be able to hold some species of shark, there’s nothing that could make you more menacing.

But for those who would rather watch the villains than be one, you can take advantage of the 14-seat movie theatre.

This is only the second time these properties, with a combined 45,000 sq ft of living space, have been sold as “one”.

In late 2021, Philadelphia real-estate developer Michael Karp purchased the estate for an eye-watering £92.7m – the second most-expensive home sale witnessed in the Hamptons.

The following spring, he put 71 Cobb Lane, the smaller of the two, up for sale.

A year later, No 70 became available to rent during the summer season.

Now, however, they’re back on the market together as one home – albeit at a £15m loss.

And whilst this property may have a hefty price tag, it feels like a drop in the ocean compared to a site recently hoisting its for sale sign in Naples, Florida.

In February, a sprawling private oasis was put up for sale for a staggering £235m.

This made the mega estate one of world’s most expensive properties on the market at the time.

Earlier this year, another real-life “Bond villain” private island with a luxury villa, swimming pool and helipad went on sale – and it cost nothing to run.

The stunning off-grid lair came at a hefty price, however, with sellers listing it for an eye-watering $16.5million (£13.1million).

Located just off the coast of the Florida Keys, Florida, USA, it spans nearly one-and-a-half acres and features a 2,300-square-foot main house and a detached guest cottage.

Staying on the theme of Bond villain-esque properties, Aston Martin recently announced its own ultra-lux tower block is nearing completion.

The 66-storey waterfront property in Miami features a jaw-dropping penthouse which comes with its own supercar.

Bond franchise’s favourite manufacturer has unveiled its first apartment building which has already proven a huge hit amongst buyers.
