It's a piece of Hollywood history on the East Coast.
Hunting for a new apartment in New York City isn't easy, as any resident of the Big Apple can tell you. However, if you're looking to snag a spot with some serious star power, you're in luck: Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward's former New York apartment has just hit the market for $1.6 million.
The famous couple might be known for their impressive filmography, lasting love, and line of grocery products, but it turns out they also had excellent taste in real estate. In fact, Newman and Woodward purchased multiple properties in this Fifth Avenue building: A 3,000-square-foot penthouse that finally sold for $14 million after a bidding war earlier this year, and this two-bedroom unit, which was used as a guest suite and office for Woodward. Listing agents Noble Black and Jennifer Kaufman Stillman of the Corcoran Group tell House Beautiful the couple first picked up this space approximately 40 years ago—and this listing has a lot more to offer than its A-list history.
“In addition to its past use by one of America’s most iconic couples, the maisonette’s prewar charm, Central Park views, and prime Carnegie Hill location make it an exceptional offering," Black explains. "Not just for its legacy, but for the timeless elegance it embodies. For buyers seeking character, provenance, plus a truly unique and special home, this is a once-in-a-generation chance.”
Want to take a peek inside? Read on for an intimate look at the property before it gets snatched up!
Nestled on the Upper East Side, this "guest" unit is mere blocks away from the city's crown jewel, Central Park. You can even spot some of the park's trees from this spacious great room, which can accommodate living and dining areas.
New York City apartments aren't known for their generous footprints, but this option has a kitchen you'll actually want to cook in. Not only are the ample countertops a home cook's dream, but the verdant tiles deliver a sophisticated pop of color.
With beautiful millwork, built-in sconces, and dramatic double doors, Woodward's former office is the perfect mix of business and pleasure.
Textured walls and excellent park views make this primary bedroom a suitable spot to clock in some well-deserved beauty sleep.
Don't need another bedroom? The new owner of this apartment can pay homage to Newman and Woodward by transforming this spare space into a private screening room.
The apartment's sole bathroom is awash in gorgeous, granite slabs, which create a dramatic, jewel box moment. We also love the spacious vanity and shower-tub combination, which are both rare features in Big Apple abodes.
