Have a nomination for a jaw-dropping listing that would make a mighty fine House of the Day? Get thee to the tipline and send us your suggestions. We'd love to see what you've got.

Location: Pebble Beach, Calif.
Price: $19,500,000
The Skinny: There's nothing quite like a good dose of brokerbabble, and this one is no different. "Probably the best views on earth," crows the listing. Whoa. That's one big claim, but it seems every house pushing $20M needs one. At least the views aren't the only thing going for this seaside sprawler. The estate is located adjacent to the Cypress Point Golf Club, but if the new buyer is a die-hard homebody, there's always the par-3 chip-and-putt course on the front lawn. There are a few disappointments, including the beige-on-beige kitchen and living room, the cheap electric stove, and ceiling fans-cum-lamps, but for the right superrich golfer, this just might be the place to work on finally lowering that handicap.
