50 Cent's suburban Connecticut mansion seemed meant to be. Its address is 50 Poplar Hill Drive. It's 50,000 square feet. And it has 50+ rooms. Until he tried to sell it—after listing the home for $18.5M in 2007, he sold it this year for $2.9M
Courtesy of Douglas EllimanThe enormous estate was built in 1985 for Benjamin Sisti, founder of failed Colonial Realty Co., who was convicted a decade later in a fraud case. At the time, the mansion was viewed as a monstrosityive times as large as the next house in Farmington. Since the 1980s, it had become a neighborhood symbol of excess, greed, corruption, and alleged debauchery.“It’s the largest house in the northeast,” says Douglas Elliman’s Jennifer Leahy, who brokered the deal.
The rapper dropped more than $100,000 just on the club's audio-visual set up which surrounds the dance floor stage. Outdoors, the 17-acre grounds also offer guesthouses, mountain views, waterfalls, bridges, and landscaped gardens.Despite taking a loss, 50 Cent is okay.
