n a long-awaited conclusion to its tumultuous market journey, the majestic Connecticut estate of beloved TV icon Mary Tyler Moore has found a new owner. The 13,825-square-foot Georgian Colonial, a Greenwich landmark built in 1900, has been reduced from its initial $21.9 million asking price by a staggering $10 million through a series of dramatic price cuts.
Moore and her husband, Dr. S. Robert Levine, purchased the property in 2006 for $9 million, transforming it into a stunning showcase of refined taste through meticulous renovations. The estate's new owner remains anonymous, as does the sale price.
As a testament to Moore's enduring legacy, the property boasts an impressive array of features, including five bedrooms, nine bathrooms, a glass conservatory, and a state-of-the-art gym with spa amenities. Standing on 7.37 acres, the estate also boasts a 65-foot pool, fireplace, and separate one-bedroom apartment above the three-car garage.
Designated a historical landmark in 2020, "Mary's house" has finally found a new home after entering contract in February. The property's allure lies not only in its stunning design but also in its rich history, as Levine described it as a space that reflects Moore's classical aesthetic and passion for detail.
In a market where the median home price is $2 million, with properties selling 6% above asking and flying off the market in just 15 days, the sale of this estate marks a significant milestone. Joseph F. Barbieri of Sotheby's International Realty held the listing, which has been met with interest from potential buyers eager to own a piece of TV history.
