Jessica Lange and Sam Shepard's estate on Stillwater's North Hill is on the market again.
The Oscar-winning actress and the award-winning playwright and actor pulled their former home off the market last fall, but it recently was listed for $1.95 million. The real estate agent is Frank Roffers of SKY Sotheby's International Realty.
The estate first went on the market in 2004 for $3.3 million. A year later, the selling price had dropped to $2.6 million, and the main house (about $2 million) and the guest house/pool house (about $650,000) also were being offered separately.
A listing on Roffers' Web site at skyroffersgroup.com/featurelistings.html describes the property as a "spectacular home and landscape featured in Architectural Digest."
"Rich in history and architecture, this extraordinary estate is situated in the quaint town of Stillwater, just 30 minutes from the Twin Cities," the listing says.
Lange might dispute "quaint."
In a February interview in the New York Daily News, she was quoting as saying, "When we first moved to Stillwater, it still felt like a real place. It had a downtown with a hardware store, a furniture store, a clothing store. Now it's all gift shops and these terrible condominiums. It was a little town with a great deal of character. Everything gets yuppified, I guess."
Lange bought the former bed-and-breakfast at 903 4th St. N. in 1994 for $415,000, and
she and Shepard lived there about 9 years.
The property includes a 6,000-square-foot main home, built in 1892, the guest house and swimming pool, as well as a carriage house, tiered gardens, a small fruit orchard, ponds and woods. The house sits on one of the largest lots in the city — 2.5 acres — and offers sweeping views of the St. Croix River.
Roffers, the agent, declined to comment on the property listing.
J.L. Family Trust of Beverly Hills, Calif., is listed as the house's owner, according to Washington County property tax records. Records indicate the taxable value of the main house in 2008 is $964,200.
