Listings Of Connecticut Celebrity Homes For Sale In 2017

Celebrities sure do tend to have gorgeous homes. But just because you're famous (and wealthy), doesn't always mean you'll have luck quickly selling that home for top dollar.

Ask former FBI Director (and President Trump foil) James Comey, who ended up taking significantly less than his original asking price when he finally sold his former Westport home.

Same could be said for exiting General Electric CEO Jeffrey Immelt, whose New Canaan mansion was on the market for more than a year before it sold, again at well under asking.

Below is a sampling of some of the celebrity homes currently on the market in Connecticut, according to realtor.com, with the exception of one (which was on the market and is now listed as off).

Most have been on the market for quite some time, but all are gorgeous in their own way and offer privacy and high-end features... not to mention the cache of being able to say, "Want to know who used to live here?"
