Former Colorado Sen. Gary Hart has added 135 acres to his mountain property to keep reporters and other curious onlookers at a greater distance from his home in Kittredge, Colo., the woman who sold him the land said. Ruth Brainerd, who in 1985 sold Hart the Kittredge home she and her husband had lived in for 55 years, said that Hart wanted the surrounding land for the sake of his family’s privacy, two Denver newspapers reported. The papers said records show that Hart used a loan from actor Warren Beatty to purchase the added land for $270,000 on July 15.
