Ten years ago I would've probably said a Hill Country ranch but not anymore. I really fell in love with the area east of Canyon, TX. I'd buy several thousand acres of canyonland and build a nice home on the rim. Canyon is a nice, clean, and safe town just south of Amarillo. While the panhandle is ugly as shite, the areas near Caprock and Palo Duro are gorgeous.
Something like this
I'd go with more land and less house, just giving an example.
This house is ugly as hell but this is where I would build.

Alys Beach or on the coast in SW Florida. Maybe Lake Martin in Alabama.

Outer Banks. Hatteras Island to be specific. Probably moving there after complete retirement without the full 15 mil anyways.

Winters in Florida and summers in Montana would be my choice.

A lake house somewhere around the smokies.
Southern Colorado maybe.
Then again, something with a nice boathouse in the keys would be amazing.
I guess that’s what money really gives you is options.

Is there such a place? I know what you mean, but there isn't a perfect place, but maybe buy two places. One in Maine and one in Florida.

The western states have wide open spaces. A good friend moved to Colorado forty years ago and every time we talk in fall, her main concern is the depth of the snow pack and will she be allowed enough water to keep herself clean and her landscaping alive through the next summer. Water is a serious problem out there. Lots of places with flowing water can't use it because it's already owned by farms downstream.
Projecting taxes is the second worry: you want some growth but too much and the assessors go ape s**t.

I’d spend 1.5 to 2 mil on the home and the rest would be on land around it.
Probably some where in Texas.

Does it have to be all at one place?
I wouldn't mind splitting up the 15 mil and buy 3 $5 mil places

La Jolla CA.
They have private schools if that’s a concern.

And go where?
