The Ridgefield, CT, home of music producer Jim Steinman is on the market—and the listing includes everything inside the place.
Known for his work on hits such as Meat Loaf‘s “Bat Out of Hell” and Celine Dion‘s “It’s All Coming Back to Me Now,” Steinman lived in an upscale spread that just got a pretty steep price cut.
The property was listed initially in 2022 for $5,555,569, and now it’s exactly $1 million less.
Steinman, who died in 2021, lived at the address for nearly 30 years. In the 1990s, he bought the property and its accompanying 1920s cottage, then spent more than $6 million on an expansion.
New England architect Rob Bramhall was commissioned to help bring Steinman’s vision to life.
Besides the actual house, the producer’s interior decor and some of his personal belongings convey with the sale. Now that’s a deal.
Otherworldly ambiance
Marvelous details abound in Steinman’s two-bedroom, four-bath sanctuary. There’s a sprawling grand room with two-story windows and vaulted ceilings. The wood-paneled space also boasts stained-glass details and glossy, hardwood floors.
There’s a particularly stylish half-bathroom with glossy, black stone details and modern light fixtures.
The first level features a large kitchen with white cabinetry, a skylight, windowed breakfast nook, and a dining room with a Gothic-style chandelier.
The kitchen flows nicely into the cozy den, which has a rustic fireplace and a door leading outside. See if you can spot the music memorabilia!
A work of art
Up the wood-carved staircase are the home’s bedrooms and creative spaces.
The primary suite is truly something to behold, with its painted ceiling, built-in shelving, and an immaculately carved headboard. The en suite bathroom is a tiled retreat with a mirrored wall, windowed shower, and spacious vanity. There’s also a dressing area.
The space also includes a guest bedroom, library, office, and lounge area, while a leather-padded bench lines part of the hallway.
Situated on a 1.5-acre lot with a two-car garage, this home has plenty of grassy space to host barbecues and parties.
Steinman, who died at the age of 73, enjoyed a five-decade music career. He worked with other big-name acts including Bonnie Tyler and Barry Manilow.
