Sept. 1, 2009— -- The luxury beachfront home of now-imprisoned Bernie Madoff, purchased with money stolen from his victims of his $65 billion Ponzi scheme, is up for grabs to the first buyer who offers $8.75 million for the oceanfront estate in the Hamptons, Long Island.

"As soon as you walk into it, there is an understated elegance you don't see from the outside," said U.S. Marshal Roland Ubaldo, who said officials are standing firm on the asking price – the market value of the home – which will go towards compensating Madoff's victims. The home is listed through the Corcoran Group.

The U.S. Marshals are also selling off the Madoff's other mansions and yachts. U.S. Marshal Joseph R. Guccione said the goal is to get the homes for sale - in Montauk, Manhattan and Palm Beach - soon to \"minimize the amount of time they remain in our inventory and maximize the return to the victims.\"

\"The U.S. Marshals Service is working diligently towards the disposition of the assets related to the Madoff case,\" Guccione said. \"The interrelated assets in this case include three homes, three vessels, multiple vehicles, thousands of pieces of personal property items and numerous financial and commercial real estate partnerships.\"
