Sheryl Crow's Tennessee Farm Fails To Sell At Auction

Filed under: Estates, Auctions, Celebrity Shopping

Sheryl Crow was tired of waiting around for her Tennessee farm to sell and so she took auction. Crow, who listed her home back in May for $7.5 million, agreed to have Cross Creek Farm put up for auction but the auction closed on Tuesday, November 23rd, 2010 without the reserve having been met.

This "solar farm" and equestrian property of approximately 150 acres includes a 10,264 square-foot home. The property also features a 14-stall barn, indoor riding area and large pond. The three-story home has five bedrooms, a theatre room, with added spaces wired for a music studio incorporating additional living space, and a private in-law apartment or nanny quarters, as well as a three-bedroom guest house. In recent years auctions have become a popular way to speed up the selling process but it's no guarantee. Could we see a new listing and a price cut soon?

10 of the Most Expensive Celebrity Homes on the Market that We Love

by Ann Brenoff (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Estates, Celebrity Shopping

Mirror, mirror on the wall. Whose house is the fairest of them all?

Which celebrities have the most expensive properties on the market right now? Let's apologize up front for not including any pocket listings that we don't know about. (In fact, if you'd be so kind as to let us know about them, we'd be most grateful.)

And sorry, but we aren't counting Candy Spelling's Bel-Air listing at an unrealistic $150 million here -- not because it isn't a super property (if overpriced) but because despite her befriending us on Facebook, we still don't quite consider her a celebrity. We're also not including Dennis Hopper's estate, no disrespect intended toward the recently departed but if we opened the cemetery floodgates, there wouldn't be enough room in cyberspace to list them all. And lastly, we're so sick of athletes who misbehave that we'll pass on considering them celebrities for the moment. Overgrown kids maybe, but not celebrities.

So with those caveats, here's the unofficial Luxist list of 10 of our favorite and most expensive celebrity homes on the market.

1) Billy Joel's Sagaponack Village house for $19.9 million. We love love love this beachfront house in Sagaponack Village South that sits on 145 feet of oceanfront. We even loved it when it was first listed at $22.5 million. Classy, elegant, blends with the surroundings. You half expect a seagull to land on you while you stare at the photos. High beamed ceilings, white-washed, New Englandy without the pretensions. It was renovated in 2009 and clearly is a place where great music could be made -- although apparently not between Billy Joel and his soon-to-be-ex wife Katie Lee Joel. Nothing like a divorce to force the issue of liquidating the real estate. And nothing like a recession to keep things from moving. The piano man and his fourth wife also listed the property next door to this one for $12 million. There are some reports it sold in the $10 million vicinity.
