Former governor Deval Patrick, and his wife, Diane, finally have sold their house in Milton. The six-bedroom home on Hinckley Road, which the couple had put on the market at least twice before, sold for $1.2?million to Geoffrey Lewis and his wife, Corey. (At the time of their 2009 wedding announcement in The New York Times, Geoffrey Lewis was an associate at the investment firm Sverica International and Corey Lewis was manager of strategy and market research at the Boston Beer Company.) The Patricks purchased the house — described by Multiple Listing Service as “one of Milton’s loveliest homes, an elegant brick- sided beauty hidden from road by shrubs and trees’’ — for $560,000 in 1989. In 2009, according to MLS, the couple put the house on the market for $1.9?million. It didn’t sell. They tried again in 2012, lowering the price to $1.5?million. It remained on the market for 355 days, but, again, didn’t sell. As always, third time’s a charm. We don’t know where the Patricks are moving, but they still have a summer residence in Richmond.
