Bill Cosby Living Like a Hermit in Sprawling Massachusetts Estate: Report

A sign outside the estate reads: 'If you are not invited, do not pass through these gates.'

Bill Cosby is holed up in a sprawling estate in western Massachusetts, according to a report.

The comedian, accused of sexual misconduct by several women, is "a virtual recluse," according to the Daily Mail, which posted exclusive photos of the 21-acre Shelburne Falls estate.

A sign at the entrance reads "If you are not invited, do not pass through these gates," according to the photos.

Townspeople say Cosby lives like a hermit, according to the news site.

He has owned the property since 1971. His son, Ennis, who was murdered in 1997, is buried beneath a herb garden on the estate, the Mail wrote.
