Real Housewives of New York City star Dorinda Medley is selling a piece of her famous Blue Stone Manor estate in Great Barrington, Massachusetts. After a professional survey, she discovered her property spans nearly 20 acres, far more than the 9 acres she originally believed she owned. She’s now selling a separate 3.7-acre parcel with its own private entrance for $1.2 million.
Medley says she used to walk trails on the property thinking she was trespassing on a neighbor’s land. The extra acreage was costing her more in taxes, so she decided to reorganize the estate into three lots and list the unused portion. She hopes the buyer builds a historic home that fits the spirit of the Berkshires.
This story is a reminder that sometimes you end up with more than you expected, and it’s okay to let go of what you don’t need. Would you sell off extra land to simplify your life, or would you hold onto it for the future?
