Breaking news: Former ABC news anchor and journalist Charles Gibson is selling his Park City, UT, home for $9.4 million.

The 75-year-old, who retired from ABC News in 2009, is moving away from his ski chalet. The next owner can expect great things from the winter retreat. According to the listing, Gibson and his family called the house “The happiest place on earth.” (Sorry, Disneyland.)

The contemporary home in the shape of an ellipse was designed by the owner’s mathematician brother. The home has become a local landmark that can be seen from a ski lift in Deer Valley. 

Gibson first bought in the area in 1987, the year he began hosting “Good Morning America.” Enamored with the snowy escape, he and his family had the custom home built in 1995.

Charles Gibson’s house is a local landmark in Park City, UT.

Elsewhere there’s an office, media/game room, and hot tub. The master suite comes with a sitting area and fireplace. The mudroom includes ski storage.

Gibson spent 19 years with “Good Morning America,” leaving in 2006 to host what would become “World News with Charles Gibson.” The broadcaster retired in 2009.
