MANAGE SUBSCRIPTIONS   |   UNSUBSCRIBE   |   VIEW ONLINE   The late Tom Clancy's former home may be Baltimore's most expensive listing — but it's also a bargain by Dennis Green on Oct 29, 2015, 1:59 PM Advertisement Late author Tom Clancy's 12,000-square-foot penthouse in Baltimore's Ritz-Carlton Residences just hit the market for $12 million.  Shawn Breck, of TTR Sotheby’s International Realty, told the Wall Street Journal that the home is Baltimore's priciest listing. But the asking price of the four-unit penthouse is actually less than the spy novelist paid for his initial three units six years ago.  Clancy, who died in 2013, moved into the Ritz in 2009, when he bought three units for $12.6 million. A year later, he and his wife, Alexandra, bought three more units for a reported $4 million. While two of the six units are being rented out and are not part of the sale, the four units that make up the penthouse are asking a lower price than Clancy paid for the initial three six years ago.  Keep scrolling for a tour of the sprawling penthouse in the late author's hometown.  SEE ALSO: Michael Jordan is trying really hard to sell his outrageous Chicago mansion DON'T FORGET: Follow Business Insider's lifestyle page on Facebook!
