The estate includes a 14,500-square-foot main house plus multiple other buildings.Paula Deen doesn’t seem to be getting any nibbles on her Savannah, Georgia mansion, which first hit the market in 2015 asking $12.5M. Now, the celebrity chef has given the price a significant chop down to $8.75M, reports Realtor.com. Seabolt Brokers’ V. Elaine Seabolt represents the listing.

The so-called “Riverbend” estate (named for its views over the Wilmington River) includes a 14,500-square-foot main house plus 2 guest cottages, a barn and a dock house on 5.5 acres. The main house boasts a French Caribbean style and features a professional-grade kitchen (no surprise there) as well as an exercise room, media room and an aviary built in to the family room. On the property there is a full outdoor kitchen, a “dive-in” movie theater comprised of an IMAX-quality screen over a swimming pool and a croquet court.

The estate is oriented around a courtyard. The elegant living room. The kitchen features professional-grade appliances. The sprawling pantry. A vaulted ceiling makes the home feel airy and bright. The elegant master bedroom. The patio features an outdoor fireplace. The pool has a dive-in movie theater and a pool house.
