The 77-year-old veteran journalist shocked fans in November 2024 when he revealed he would be stepping away from the news network after just three years, telling viewers at the time that he was “excited” and “liberated” to look for opportunities outside of broadcast media.
And it seems as though Wallace’s seven-figure CNN contract isn’t the only thing he was ready to ditch because he has now listed the stunning mansion that he and his wife, Lorraine, have resided in for nearly three decades, having bought it 28 years ago.

The duo purchased the sizable Georgian Revival property for $1.1 million back in 1997, shortly before tying the knot.
Although Wallace initially listed the 7,000-square-foot home days after he walked out of CNN studios, the property didn’t attract any sellers and was seemingly taken off the market.

The property boasts four bedrooms and a slew of rooms adorned in chic, striped wallpaper and has been visited by a number of very high-profile guests, including late Sen. Ted Kennedy and Justice Antonin Scalia, as well as Hollywood heavyweight George Clooney.
Wallace’s home, which is listed with real estate agent Michael Rankin, was clearly designed with elegance in mind and boasts many elevated touches. The living room comes complete with a bay window and a gorgeous marble fireplace mantel, lending a cozy and inviting feel to the space.
In addition to its sophisticated style, the property also features a gym and guest suite on the bottom floor. Meanwhile, the kitchen was recently remodeled to create the perfect space for a chef.
The property’s five bathrooms are the epitome of chic luxury, with the master bathroom decked out with a white-and-gray marble counter top and thick crown molding.
