Kathie Lee Gifford Suddenly Lists Her Estate at a Staggering Price
Kathie Lee Gifford, former host of NBC's Today show alongside Hoda Kotb, recently listed her waterfront estate in Connecticut for a staggering price.
The 13,000+ square-foot home has been listed for $100 million and sits on nearly three acres. The villa is called Cedar Cliff, which the listing says is "a Mediterranean villa of unrivaled pedigree and commanding presence."
The home has stunning views of the Manhattan Skyline and Long Island Sound, as well as a three-level elevator, a professional recording studio, a fitness center, and a tennis court.
According to the Wall Street Journal, Gifford purchased the home with her late husband, Frank Gifford, in 1994. At the time, it was listed for only $7.8 million.
"Had I never gone into show business, I would have become an architect / interior designer," Gifford said to the WSJ. "It has been a passion of mine for as long as I can remember."
WSJ's readers were shocked by the price, with one user on Instagram saying that based on area comps, "This should be listed for 40% less."
"Wow it's beautiful! I just need 99.5 million more," another user joked.
Gifford moved to Nashville, Tenn., in 2019 following her 11-year run on the Today show. She said to the WSJ that the move "was the new beginning that I needed."
"But I never stopped loving Cedar Cliff," Gifford said.
Seven months after she departed from the Today show, Gifford returned to the show to open up about her new life in Nashville.
"There's a completely different culture down there, and it's a culture of kindness in Nashville, and they're authentically kind," Gifford said. "There are some mean ones, I guess, but I don't hang out with them. They're joyful. They have so much fun, music everywhere - everything's Americana."
