Located at the top of a bluff that overlooks the Atlantic Ocean, O’Reilly purchased what was originally a 600 square foot 1940s cottage on a 1.5-acre plot back in 2013. The cottage was originally listed for $8.5 million, but O’Reilly managed to pick it up for the discounted price of $7.65. 

The 2-bedroom cottage was loved by the locals and almost considered a landmark in the area, which is why many were upset with O’Reilly’s decision to tear the whole thing down to build a new home on the site. 

While there isn’t much online about O’Reilly’s custom home on the plot, what we can say is that it’s substantially larger than the previous structure. 

Additionally, the new 2-story home on the property features a spacious 2-car garage, at least 1 fireplace, a massive balcony on the second floor that overlooks the ocean, a pool & spa, and a smaller, detached structure that looks as though it could potentially be a guest house.
