Situated in Greenwich, Connecticut, this historic mansion stands as a testament to America’s rich past and ranks among the nation’s most expensive home sales. Built in 1898, Copper Beech Farm showcases a massive 13,519-square-foot main house with eight bedrooms, eight baths, oak paneling, plaster friezes, multiple fireplaces, and impressive 12-foot ceilings.
