Located in Englewood, New Jersey, the property is just five miles from Manhattan.

The eight-bedroom, 14-bath home sits on five acres of private property and includes a home theater and gym, along with several spiral staircases. The mansion is the latest on a long list of real-estate price cuts this year, including an empty LA hilltop plot and a Florida vacation home.
