The listed mansion has seven rooms, ten bathrooms spread over a 47-acre plot with “sweeping views of the SF Bay and City Skyline.”

Why It Matters: The price cut comes after the billionaire entrepreneur last week said that Tesla is moving its headquarters to Austin, Texas, a state with no personal income tax. California, on the other hand, imposes the highest personal income tax on its wealthiest residents.

Tesla has also completed an additional 325,000 square feet office expansion in Palo Alto, California, the electric vehicle maker’s hometown, for nearly two decades, as per a report by the real estate website, The Registry.

Price Action: Tesla shares traded 0.86% higher at $818.04 premarket on the last check Thursday.
