Neil Gorsuch, the newest U.S. Supreme Court justice, has landed a buyer for his three-acre Colorado estate.

Justice Gorsuch, President Donald Trump’s pick to succeed the late Justice Antonin Scalia, put the horse farm 10 miles from downtown Boulder on the market in the wake of his move to Washington, D.C. He was sworn into the nation’s highest court in April.

The home went into contract on Tuesday, according to listing records.

The final sale price won’t be recorded in public records until the home closes, but Justice Gorsuch, 49,  listed the five-bedroom, pale brick and shake shingle estate for $1.675 million.

He bought the Rocky Mountain mansion with his wife, Louise, in 2007 for $1.03 million, according to property records. At the time, he served as a judge on the U.S. Court of Appeals based in neighboring Denver. Mr. Gorsuch previously declined to comment on the home.

The property is being marketed as a "horse lover’s paradise."

The main house was built in 1994, and opens from the front step into a wood-paneled, double-height foyer with stairs leading to the second floor bedrooms. The finished basement houses a media room, billiards table and various gym equipment, according to listing images with agent Deborah Read Fowler of Colorado Landmark Realtors.

The interiors have hardwood floors, stained-wood moulding and stone accents.

Photos of the home reveal the Gorsuches’ relatively austere style, with the more breathtaking aspects of the property outside the main house. The estate sits next to a 71-acre equestrian facility, with miles of open space, mountain views and trails surrounding it.

The property comes with a three-stall barn, paddocks and an orchard. Amid the main house’s landscaped gardens is a heated swimming pool beside a shady pergola.
