According to the Daily Mail, Mel Gibson’s house in Greenwich, Connecticut, just won’t sell. It’s been on the market since 2007, when the price was set at $39.5 million. Two years later, it has been slashed to a paltry $29.75 million. So if you love a good bargain, now’s your chance to snap it up!
“Old Mill Farm” was designed and built by the architect Charles Lewis Bowman in 1926 for a client who loved horses. It has 15 bedrooms and 17 bathrooms, with 16,000 square feet.

The house comes with a maze on the property. I love the gate leading to it:
I think I could be perfectly happy living in the charming staff quarters:
The house sits on 77 acres. The grounds and formal gardens were beautifully designed by landscape designer James Doyle.
Gibson has been in the news a lot lately since Robyn, his wife of 28 years and the mother of his 7 children, filed for divorce. Soon after, he announced that he is expecting an 8th with his Russian girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva. He said we can now refer to him as “Octo-Dad.” (I’d rather not.)

10/10 UPDATE: The house finally sold after 3 years on the market, for $24 million. More details here.
