Add billionaire Rupert Murdoch’s 19-room Colonial to the growing list of mansions for sale on New York’s Long Island.

Media mogul Murdoch has reportedly put his home on the market for a reported $14.8 million. That’s nearly double the almost $7.8 million that Murdoch and his wife paid for the 4.5-acre estate four years ago, sources stated.

It’s also remarkably high considering the up-market competition is very tight.

News sources reported at least six other estates with more than $5 million asking prices are on the market in Centre Island. One of them belongs to single Billy Joel, and he’s asking a reduced price now of $32.5 million.

Murdoch, who owns homes around the world, will reportedly be listed with Daniel Gale Sotheby’s International Realty.
