A historic townhouse is making waves in the real estate market – and it’s not just for its jaw-dropping price tag of nearly $11 million.
Listed on Tuesday, the nearly 200-year-old residence has played host to Hollywood’s elite appearing in an iconic film and a popular television show.
Set in the prime of Manhattan’s West Village, the stunning 5-bedroom, 3-bath home boasts a hard-to-find ‘suburban-like’ feel deep within the concrete jungle.
With a classic brick exterior and vintage interior built in 1830 this property has caught the eye of A-list stars and producers alike.
Fans of the hit series ‘Madam Secretary’ may recognize the classic interiors while devotees to Adam Sandler may recognize the exterior and lux parlor room seen in his beloved 1999 film, ‘Big Daddy.’
But the 3,700 square foot townhouse doesn’t just serve as a picturesque backdrop as the luxury 18 Commerce Street home also features a private parking lot – a coveted luxury in the Big Apple.
Inside the lavish estate is a one-of-a-kind ‘secret room’ which has reportedly been used as a private home office or extra guest room.
The centuries-old home is also equipped with original details including exposed brick walls and intricate plaster moldings, restored with Italian craftsmanship.
The home’s spacious kitchen is fit with a distinct diamond patterned flooring, opulent appliances like a Sub Zero fridge, a Thermador six burner range oven, custom cabinetry and Viking wine fridge.
Updated over the years, the age-old home still has wide-plank floorboards and exterior window shutters.
Listed by Corcoran, the ‘true urban oasis,’ the house also features 5 wood-burning, stainless steel-lined fireplaces with original mantles, a large open patio backyard with an outdoor grill, hot tub, and underground cold storage tunnel and a tea porch, the listing reads.
The West Village itself has long been a magnet for celebrities. With its tree-lined streets, trendy shops and iconic eateries, it’s no surprise that stars like Jim Carrey and Nicole Kidman have called this neighborhood home.
