Actor Bruce Willis and his wife Emma Helming Willis have sold their country estate near Bedford Corners in New York, for $7.66 million – a huge 41% off its original listing price. 

The Die Hard actor listed the 22.6-acre estate with Douglas Elliman for $12.95 million in 2019. 

The spacious property includes four separate houses, two garages, a saltwater pool, a pool house, and a tennis court, according to listing.

The sale is one of the priciest transactions to be recorded in Weschester in 2019, according to a spokesperson for Douglas Elliman. 

Now you can debate whether Die Hard is a Christmas film or not while perusing the actors home.

Westchester County is well known for being a celebrity haven for those not only looking to revel in the countryside, but also its close proximity to Manhattan.  

The area is home to Oscar-winning actors, Broadway stars, musicians and billionaires including Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively, Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones, Chevy Chase, David Letterman and Richard Gere.
