Hillary Clinton has certainly been busy lately running for president and all (not to mention fighting off claims that she is in poor health), but that hasn’t stopped her from snapping up a new home.

The Democratic presidential nominee and her husband, Bill Clinton, paid $1.16 million in August for a three-bedroom, 3,631-square-foot ranch-style home set on 1.51 acres on Old House Lane in Chappaqua in Westchester County, according to the New York Post. They also scored a slight discount from the original $1.18 million listing price.

The home is next door to the Clintons’ primary residence, which they paid $1.7 million for in 1999 when Mr. Clinton was still president. This is the home that Mrs. Clinton used as her base when she ran for the New York Senate.

According to the New York Times, the two spend most of their downtime here, watching "The Good Wife" and "Downton Abbey" and hosting Thanksgiving meals with their daughter, Chelsea.
