Kathie Lee Gifford Lists Waterfront Connecticut Compound for $100 Million

Kathie Lee Gifford is preparing to sell her Greenwich, Connecticut waterfront property known as Cedar Cliff for $100 million. The Mediterranean-style home was purchased in 1994 for $7.8 million and sits on a 2.9-acre peninsula site on the Long Island Sound with views of the New York City skyline. The residence spans more than 15,000 square feet and includes eight bedrooms, 14 bathrooms, and 10 fireplaces, along with a pool and spa, a poolhouse with a gym and kitchenette, a private beach with a dock, stone terraces, and a tennis court. During her ownership, she and Frank Gifford added a three-story wing featuring a primary suite, a movie theater for 20, an office, and a wine cellar. Frank Gifford died in 2015, and Kathie Lee moved to Nashville in 2019.

"Known as Cedar Cliff, the 1930s Mediterranean-style house sits on the site of a compound owned by railroad magnate Henry Francis Shoemaker in the early 20th century. It spans over 15,000 square feet, with eight bedrooms, 14 bathrooms, and 10 fireplaces. There's also a pool and spa, a poolhouse with its own gym and kitchenette, a private beach with a dock, numerous stone terraces, and a tennis court."

"During her ownership, she and Frank added a new wing to the residence, which sits on a 2.9-acre plot on the tip of a peninsula on the Long Island Sound and has views of the New York City skyline. The three-story addition featured a new primary suite, a movie theater that seats 20, an office, and a wine cellar. Frank died in 2015, and Kathie Lee relocated to Nashville, Tennessee, in 2019."

"The move "was the new beginning that I needed," she told the WSJ. "But I never stopped loving Cedar Cliff." The listing is held by Leslie McElwreath of Sotheby's International Realty - Greenwich Brokerage."

"Having already begun a new chapter in Nashville, Kathie Lee Gifford is ready to let go of her longtime Connecticut compound-for the low, low price of $100 million. The former Today and Live with Regis and Kathie Lee host purchased the waterfront property in Greenwich's Riverside neighborhood with her late husband, football star Frank Gifford, in 1994 for $7.8 million, according to The Wall Street Journal."
