The 21.38-acre property, 1650 McLain Flats Road, had been listed with Sotheby’s International Realty’s Soffia Wardy for just under a year when it sold. According to Wardy, who represented Weinglass, there were multiple brokers and offers over the years before the sale finally closed.

Wardy confirmed the property had been in Weinglass’ family for over 40 years and housed three generations.
