The New York Times reported the $40 million estate Dean Gardens has finally sold after being on the market for over 16 years. The estate belongs to entertainment tycoon Tyler Perry and the sale price was $7.6 million. The unbelievable part is that he plans to tear it down and build a new home on the property. The lavish estate was built by Larry Dean, the financial services baron along with his wife Lynda. The home took four years to create and has ten bathrooms, eight bedrooms, and a more than 3,000 square foot master suite.
