We featured his townhouse several years ago when it was on the market for $27m when it was dressed up for a quick flip by including art and collectibles. The quick flip has turned into a three year slog.
Curbed reports that the 15-room home is back on the market with a slightly reduced asking price of $24m and a slightly different decor. The art seems to be a wholesale rehang.
The zhuzhed up Upper East Side townhouse at 132 East 62nd Street is back on the market, looking for a buyer who’s willing to plunk down $24 million on the 15-room spread. The townhouse has been on and off the market since March 2014, when it was listed for $27 million following a three-year renovation led by the home’s current owner, an “accomplished designer” based in Greenwich, Connecticut. The deal’s still the same, though the price tag’s been chipped away at over the years: All of its furnishings, including artworks by the likes of Andy Warhol, Anish Kapoor, and Roy Lichtenstein and books signed by authors including William Faulkner and Joan Didion are included in the deal. In addition to the sale listing with Sotheby’s, the townhouse is also available as a $75,000/month rental.
