Retired talk show host Sally Jessy Raphael has put her historic New York mansion back on the market for the third time, now asking US$5 million (A$7.9 million) – down from the original US$6.5 million (A$10.3 million) asking price in 2023.
The Emmy-winning television personality, 91, has owned the Elizabethan-style property in the Hudson Valley village of Pawling since 1997, when she purchased it for US$1.725 million (A$2.7 million).
Known as Elmwood Farm, the timber-frame manor house sits on 25 acres in the Quaker Hill community, about two hours north of Manhattan.
The property’s history stretches back to 1744, when it was farmland.
The main mansion was built between the 1860s and early 1900s, and remained in the same family for nine generations before Sally acquired it, according to Mansion Global.
The eight-bedroom home features 10 fireplaces, cathedral ceilings, a private chapel, and a glass-panelled sunroom.
Original details include carved millwork, panelled ceilings, intricate leaded glass windows, and a grand oak staircase.
Beyond the main residence, the property includes two caretaker homes, a carriage house that serves as an entertainment space and guest residence, staff quarters, a greenhouse, a yoga space, and a 12,000-square-foot stable with wood-panelled interiors.
There is also an unused pool requiring restoration.
The property was first listed in 2023 at US$6.5 million (A$10.3 million), then reduced by US$1 million (A$1.6 million) in 2024 before being withdrawn from the market.
