Low-profile real estate financier William J. Chadwick has placed his six-bedroom mansion on Carbon Beach in Malibu, Calif. on the market for $65,000,000. Credit the Los Angeles Times’ Ann Brenoff with breaking the story today on her ‘Hot Property’ blog of Chadwick’s listing of his house at 21804 Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu, which has 150 feet of beachfront on the Pacific Ocean. Indeed, the listing of the estate just hit the multiple listing service on Tuesday. Built in 2005, Chadwick’s house measures 9,508 square feet, according to public records (or 10,500 square feet, according to listing information).

Barack Obama for president.
