Mel Gibson's Pad Goes for $24 Million

Mel Gibson’s 75-acre Greenwich estate finally went to contract at the end of June after almost three years of waiting for that special buyer to snap it up. The spectacular Elizabethan-inspired Tudor,  designed and built in 1926 by architect Charles Lewis Bowman, has museum-quality details, including 17th century English paneling, a great hall with a 40-foot ceiling and 15 bedrooms. Gibson had more than 15,000 square feet of home to wander around in, not to mention out buildings. There’s a pool, of course, a tennis court, a log cabin and a pond.  Plus all those rolling Greenwich acres.

The property sold for $24 million. The original asking price back in June of 2007?  $39,500,000.
