The compound also has a two-bedroom guest house and a two-bedroom gatehouse with parking for six cars.

The four-acre property has such exterior features as 215 feet of sandy beach frontage and room for a pool, according to the listing. Imus, 68, bought the property for $4.6 million in 1997, and he completed construction on his compound in 2000.

The compound is in Westport, a community 48 miles northeast of Manhattan. Talk-show host Phil Donahue sold his Westport home for $25 million in 2006, and that is still a record for the area.
