Legendary journalist Tom Brokaw has cut the price of his Pound Ridge, NY, vacation home to $4.25 million. This is a significant reduction from when the country estate first came on the market a year ago, for $6.3 million.

Brokaw and his wife, Meredith Auld, bought the property for around $4.25 million in 1998. After closing costs, they likely won’t break even on a home they’ve owned for a couple of decades.

As part of the renewed sales effort, a new agent represents the listing and some of the rooms in the home now appear staged.

Located an hour north of Manhattan, the five-bedroom, 5.5-bath home comes with 36 acres, including a private 5-acre lake and a dock for swimming, boating, and fishing.

Built in 1996, the shingle-style main house features a great room with an 18-foot-high ceiling, a stone fireplace, and wide-plank wood floors. Three sets of French doors open to a screened porch.

The chef’s kitchen comes with bar seating and an island. The glassed-in dining area is graced by an elegant chandelier. The main-floor master suite comes with water views and a private terrace.

Outside there’s a pool, guesthouse, and three-car garage with an apartment. In addition, two approved building lots with lake frontage are available at 10 acres each, should the buyer want to create a family compound.
