 Britney sells NYC apartment for $4 million | |
07-13-2006
New York Post reported that after a couple of years and a few price cuts, mom tart Britney Spears is finally unloading her NoHo penthouse apartment.
The four-level, 4,400-square-foot pad in the famed Silk Building, which she originally put on the market in July 2004 for just under $6 million, has just gone to contract for $4 million, according to sources familiar with the deal.
Spears' eight-room condo at 14 E. Fourth St., which most recently had a $4.5 million asking price, has three bedrooms and 41/2 baths, and features 13-foot ceilings, wood-burning fireplaces, a large rooftop terrace and a solarium. She paid $3 million for the place in 2002, after it was listed for $4.85 million just before 9/11.
Corcoran Group broker Chris Toland, who brought in the out-of-town buyers, would only say the apartment looked as though it hadn't been occupied for some time.
The apartment was previously where Rolling Stone Keith Richards crashed and, after that, Russell Simmons called it his crib. The Silk Building has also been home to Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman, and Cher. Adam Modlin of The Modlin Group, perhaps best known as Alex Rodriguez's broker, had the listing but had no comment. |
