Most Expensive Listing Receives a Pricechopper in the US; Now Asking $140 Million

When the most expensive listing of the United States debuted amid much media hullabaloo in May with a mighty $190 million price tag, little did it know that its price would take such a slashing. The residence has now been price chopped to $140 million, $50 million less than the original asking price.

Copper Beech Farm, a plush water-front estate in Greenwich, Connecticut, proudly sat on the real estate market boasting the 'priciest-listing of the country' crown. However, the estate has now been discounted, according to Curbed.

According to the listing records, the residence is set in a 50 acre beach-front lot. Built in 1898, the home is a 13,519 square feet single-family residence, comprising of 12 bedrooms, seven full and two half bathrooms.

Living spaces include a formal living room, a solarium, a library, a family room and a sleeping porch. A modern kitchen, a lower-level wine cellar, a dressing room, a sitting room and more than two laundry rooms are some of its other features.

Outside, the residence has vast stretches of landscaped green gardens stocked with flowering trees and shrubs. Open patios, porches and a viewing pergola also exists on the property. A clock tower completes the stone carriage house, which has ample space for parking numerous cars. The property also has greenhouses. A three-bedroom cottage sits near the entrance of the property, which can be used as staff quarters or a guest house.

Other amenities include a 75 foot heated pool, a tennis court and a large spa as well.

The listing of the home lies with David Ogilvy and Associates Realtors. The property has been listed for the first time since 1904.
