Facebook Co-Founder Chris Hughes Lists Historic Hudson Valley Estate for $9.995 Million
Facebook co-founder Chris Hughes is listing his historic estate in New York's Hudson Valley for $9.995 million, making it one of the most expensive on the market in the area.
Hughes and his husband, political activist Sean Eldridge, paid roughly $6 million for the estate in 2011. The couple spent millions upgrading it, said Hughes, adding that they are 'big hikers' who have been coming to the Hudson Valley for roughly 15 years. The couple got married on the property in 2012 and lived there full time for several years before moving back to Manhattan, using the Hudson Valley property for weekends and vacations, Hughes said. They have two children.
