Great things take time. As further evidence of this well-worn cliché, this week’s most popular home on realtor.com® is a mansion in Massachusetts that is finally complete, after more than a decade of construction stops and starts.
Now that it’s finished, the long-awaited home has landed on the market for $8 million. Which is a lot of money—but listing agent Deb Forte told us that a whopping $15 million was spent on the property. So … the place isn’t only popular, it’s sort of a bargain.
The runner-up this week is a “masterfully reimagined” mansion in Hidden Hills, CA, on the market for nearly $12 million. The home in the popular celeb enclave features a luxurious master suite and an amazing outdoor space with a zero-edge pool.
Other popular places this week include filmmaker Tyler Perry’s former Atlanta compound, back on the market for $25 million, a lakefront castle owned by Derek Jeter, and a modern gem in the woods of East Aurora, NY.
You’re not out of the woods until you read up on the entire list of this week’s most popular properties …
10. 24100 Hidden Ridge Rd, Hidden Hills, CAPrice: $12,495,000
Why it’s here: This “French modern masterpiece” first caught our eye last summer, thanks to its 51-foot infinity pool. The pool sits alongside 1,500 square feet of covered outdoor living space, an outdoor fireplace, outdoor kitchen, and manicured lawn. The price has dropped over the past year, which could tempt a buyer with a still-substantial amount of cash.

1. 440 Great Pond Rd, North Andover, MAPrice: $7,999,000
Why it’s here: The 10,777-square-foot estate “fit for an emperor” has already had its Hollywood moment. The unfinished home stood in as a memorable filming locale for the 2013 HBO comedy film “Clear History,” starring Larry David. Now the home is famous yet again, garnering tons of clicks this week.
“Everybody wants to know about it,” says listing agent Deb Forte of Century 21 North East.
The property was originally purchased by property manager Anthony DiNapoli in 2002, but he never completed his vision, and the home sat unfinished for years. It’s since changed ownership, and approximately $15 million was spent on the finished product. As much as $2 million was spent on the windows alone, and the hand-carved fountains from Italy weren’t exactly cheap, either.
Now that the current owners have finally finished the estate, they have opted to put it on the market. The spectacular spread includes a foyer with a sweeping staircase, a private elevator, seven ensuite bedrooms, six fireplaces, a four-car garage, and a gourmet kitchen.
