Comedian Jerry Seinfeld is looking to part ways with his 12,260-square-foot mountain estate in Telluride, Colorado. The award-winning actor, writer, and producer purchased the sprawling retreat with his wife, cookbook-author Jessica Seinfeld, for $7,550,000 in 2007. Three years later, the couple listed the home for $18,300,000, but they took it off the market within a few months. Now, the duo are putting the property back on the market—this time at a slightly lower asking price.

Built in 1991 by Lipkin Warner, an acclaimed Colorado-based architecture firm, the retreat is set on nearly 27 secluded acres in Telluride’s private Raspberry Patch enclave. The residence was originally designed as a series of ranch-style structures, but the famous homeowners have remodeled the residence extensively over the last decade, expanding the size of the compound while also redesigning much of the interior space.

Floor-to-ceiling windows line the walls in the great room, which floods the space with natural light and unobstructed mountain views.

In the main room, floor-to-ceiling windows frame sweeping views of the neighboring San Miguel Mountains, while a large stone fireplace complements the rustic aesthetic.
