Copper Beech Farm, Greenwich, Connecticut, USA Ladies and gentlemen, a new record was created: Copper Beech Farm is now home to the most expensive sale in the United States, ever. The area, 499 Indian Field Road Greenwich, Connecticut, closed Friday $ 120 million. This figure breaks the previous record held by billionaire Masayoshi Son Softbank, which paid $ 117.5 million for its succession Woodside in November 2012. Exceeds sales also higher property in 2014 to date, the basket $ 102,000. 000 of the Fleur de Lys Estate in Holmby Hills in Los Angeles by someone whose law firm share an address with Michael Milken. David Ogilvy & Associates, a subsidiary of Christie's International Real Estate, had the listing, and Christie have confirmed the sale of FORBES. The buyer was not disclosed, but was purchased through an LLC. The field of 50 acres sold for $ 190 million in May and then dropped the price to $ 50 million in September to $ 140 million. Subsequently, the list was reduced $ 10 million $ 120 million before closing last week. This is a sale-less than a year-a home at such a high price very quickly. "It's been 11 months from start to finish," said Ogilvy FORBES. "But if you find the right buyer, there is nothing more than fill the bill. Simply no other piece of 50 acres off no less than 45 minutes from New York." Named for the copper beech that inhabit the property, Copper Beech Farm was built in 1896. Harriet Lauder Greenway (whose father, George Lauder, Andrew Carnegie helped create U.S. Steel) bought the property in 1904 and lived for more than 75. The seller, timber baron John Rudey, purchased the home three decades ago in an out of market. Until the announcement last year, the estate had not been accessible to the public for the purchase of more than a century. The property is the largest area in the sea on the coast between Greenwich and New York Cit
