The Most Expensive Home in the US – Reduced!

In the market for a new home? I have just the one to show you! You’ll love it – waterfront property, plenty of living space, heated pool, beautiful details, excellent location, and, best of all, a recently lowered price tag. It’s being sold for the first time since 1904 and includes beautiful original features. Interested? Now all you have to do is fork over $140 million!

That’s right – the price has been reduced! It was formerly $190 million. You’d think that with prices like that it would’ve sold long ago! Now, at a full $50 million less, it should be selling soon, so be sure to get your bid in!

In all seriousness, this beautiful house is way out of most people’s budgets, but it’s still fun to look (and dream!). The home, known as Copper Beech Farm, is situated in sought-after Greenwich, Connecticut and has earned the title of “most expensive home in the US.” I love looking at these homes – they give us a glimpse into the lives of the ultra-privileged.

See what $140 million will buy you:
