It has bounced on and off the market since 2022, when it was listed for $9,495,000.<\/p>\n<p>The interior boasts several lavish details, including Italian stone flooring and a German-engineered steel front door and window package.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOver the years, more than $15 million has been invested in the home,\u201d Harnish notes. \u201cHardwood floors were installed last year, and this year, porcelain floors were installed.
