Former New York Jet Vinny Testaverde has slashed the asking price on his Oyster Bay Cove home to $4.6 million. The quarterback put the 13,000-square-foot mansion on the market in October 2007 for $6.995 million and has lowered the price at least twice.

It's now co-brokered by Lynda Baker Realty Corp. in Hicksville and Century 21 Prevete Real Estate in Plainview. Elaine Lovaglio of Lynda Baker Realty calls the mansion an "absolutely beautiful family home." One of her favorite features, she says, is a lap pool that leads to a 20-foot waterfall, then into another gunite pool with a hot tub.

The center- hall Colonial has six bedrooms and 7½ baths on four acres. Testaverde and wife, Mitzi, now live in a home in Hillsborough County, Fla., they bought in 2007 for $4.5 million.
