'When I go down to the sandy shore I can think of nothing I want more,' the poem reads. 

'Than to live by the booming blue sea, As the seagulls flutter around about me I can run about when the tide is out.

'With the wind and the sea all about, And the seagulls are swirling and diving for fish, Oh-to live by the sea is my only wish.'

Jackie's daughter Caroline Kennedy and her husband, Edwin Schlossberg, sold the house in the summer of 2006 and fashion designer Reed Krakof bought the property in 2007.
