However, the transaction marked the most expensive residential sale in Greenwich so far this year, according to Sotheby's international Realty.

"The market dictated the price adjustments. When we launched the property, it was during the height of Covid and the average sales price in Greenwich had gone up, but the market has since stabilized," Milligan said.
The WSJ reported that Susie Hilfiger purchased the property for $8.5 million in 1995 with her then-husband Tommy Hilfiger. Susie got the house after the couple's divorce in 2000.

Also known as Denbigh Farm, the 13,343-square foot home is located on a little over 17 acres at 591 Riversville Road.
Billed as the "quintessential English country estate," according to a website dedicated to the property, the home sits high above sea level with panoramic views of Long Island Sound.
There are seven bedrooms, nine full baths and four half-baths, the listing description reads.
The property features sculptured verdant gardens, a pool, tennis court, a scaled-down Mount Vernon replica playhouse, gym house, carriage house, chicken coops, a horse barn with stalls and a cottage, and apple orchards.
The property dates back to the purchase of 27 acres by Joseph Marshall Jr., in 1743, according to the Greenwich Historical Society.
About 30 years later, the property belonged to Eliphalet Mead, who built the original farmhouse, which was later owned by Benjamin Fairchild, the historical society noted.
In 1904, William T. Carrington, a wealthy grain broker, bought the farmhouse and turned it into a manor house. He named the estate Denbigh Farm.
