The Palm Beach, Fla., home of Alexander Haig - the deceased former U.S. secretary of state - reportedly sold for $8 million.
Haig owned the residence with his wife Patricia. The couple purchased the house for $11.75 million under a Limited Liability Corporation, reports The Wall Street Journal.
Haig served as the secretary of state under President Ronald Reagan and was also the White House supervisor of staff under President Richard Nixon. He died in 2010 and two years later, Patricia passed away too.
The Palm Beach residence was listed in December, last year, for $9.97 million by the estate of Patricia Haig. Alexander P Haig, the couple's businessman son, acted on behalf of the estate, according to the Palm Beach Daily News.
The house was reportedly bought by Las Tres Brisas Trust, another LLC. The identity of the buyer was not revealed.
Kim Raich of Sotheby's International Realty was roped in to market the property. The buyers were represented by Ashley Copeland of Brown Harris Stevens.
Listing records of the home state that it was built in 2000. Spanning an area of 9,141-square-feet, the Mediterranean-style home has five bedrooms and seven and a half bathrooms.
Interiors of the house boast of mixed flooring, high vaulted ceilings and French doors and windows.
Living spaces of the home include a formal living room, a dining area, a modern kitchen, a den and a media room. There is a wine cellar and a paneled library as well. The two-storey home has spacious master suites with balconies and large walk-in closets as well.
Outside, the house has manicured gardens, a covered porch with a dining area, a pool with a cabana and a three-car garage with a motor court.
The listing described the place as an "important Mediterranean home" with "beautifully proportioned" living spaces.

The Palm Beach residence is not the only home put up for sale after Patricia's death. A Virginia house was also listed and sold for $5.18 million by Haig's estate last year.
Haig took several attempts at running for President, but they were hardly noticed. The man was, however, a dynamic aide to the leaders. He died at the Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore at the age of 85 in February 2010. Haig was a pillar of strength during the "Watergate Scandal" as well.
