Richard Gere sells the Connecticut home he bought from Paul Simon — for a slight loss

This 31.8-acre Connecticut estate comes with a grand A-list history — and now it’s in the hands of some new owners.

Golden Globe-winning actor Richard Gere has just sold the New Canaan property he purchased two years ago from multi-Grammy-winning singer and songwriter Paul Simon, reports the New Canaan Advertiser . The deal appears to have taken place off-market — and while the identity of the new owner isn’t immediately clear, the sale came at a slight loss for the “Pretty Woman” star.

Property records show the spread traded hands for $10.75 million. In 2022, Gere and his wife, the Spanish publicist Alejandra Silva, spent $10.8 million for the compound.
