Actress Jennifer Connelly, who starred in the recent hit Top Gun: Maverick, and her husband, British actor Paul Bettany, a star in Marvel movies and more, have long called NYC home. After years of enjoying Park Slope, the couple made the move to Tribeca in 2008, dropping $6.9 million on this stylish downtown penthouse and keeping it until 2018. The Wall Street Journal reported at the time of the Tribeca sale that the pair had acquired a Brooklyn Heights townhouse for $15.5 million. To live like these NYC-savvy stars, you can now nab their former Tribeca spread. For sale asking $10.8 million, it tempted the actors to stick around for 10 years and maybe the next owner will follow suit.
Minimalist interiors of white walls and dark floors act as a blank slate and allow buyers to bring a personal character or flair to the home. The full-floor loft has plenty of light thanks to walls of windows and skylights. Furthering the sense of tranquility, its private beautifully landscaped rooftop terrace offers easy views of the Hudson River, which is just steps away.
An airy kitchen with double-height ceilings is the heart of the home, while a living room, library, and sunroom also present great opportunities for lounging or entertaining. The primary suite comes complete with a dressing room, perfect for readying for interviews or shows. It has three more bedrooms, too.
Debbie Korb of Sotheby’s International Realty – Downtown Manhattan Brokerage holds the stylish listing in Tribeca, a neighborhood enticing to high-profile buyers. Taylor Swift, who dropped her tenth studio album on Friday, scooped up a Tribeca townhouse in 2017. This penthouse pad atop a circa-1856 building isn’t far from it. That is, if the gifted musician and songwriter hasn’t quietly flown the area.
