You heard it here first.
The custom-built mansion belonging to former Westchester District Attorney Jeanine Pirro is for sale.
A tip came to this columnist today that Pirro is seeking more than $4 million for the house at 3 Beechwood Circle in Harrison. The tip was confirmed by a persual of the Westchester-Putnam Multiple Listing Service Inc., which showed an actual asking price of $4,295,000. That’s a significant drop from the $5.2 million she tried to get for the house when it was last put on the market in 2000.
Those were troubled times for the Pirros. Six years ago, they were wallowing in a deep financial hole because of husband Al’s tax-fraud conviction which earned him a short stretch in a federal prison.
The Pirros paid $425,000 in 1986 to have the house built for them.
The MLS remarks are as follows: “European elegance & sophistication abound in this impressive home with exquisite architectural detail. An open & flowing floor pan create a luxurious ambiance for large-scale entertaining. Private 1.43 acre includes a pool, cabana, and small guest house.”
Billie Prizio, the agent for Sotheby’s International Realty, would not comment further. “All I can say is that it’s a lovely house” she said.
The house has been on the market for two weeks. Alas, no mention is made of the famous pot-bellied pigs Jeanine kept as pets.
