In 2018, Mike Myers set out the unload a duplex penthouse on the sixth and seventh floors of 72 Mercer Street, plus an apartment below on the fifth floor. He acquired them planning to combine the units to create a mega-penthouse, but he ended up moving on and selling them separately. While these sales made headlines, it flew under the radar that the buyer of his fifth floor condo was high-fashion model Kaia Gerber, daughter of supermodel Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber.
Gerber has held the 2,133-square-foot SoHo spread ever since, but is now looking to sell it as she moves to Los Angeles for a new venture. The model is trying her hand at acting and working on Ryan Murphy’s upcoming show, “The Shards.”
Listed for $5.795 million, her residence offers two bedrooms, a sun-filled great room, and a kitchen with top-of-the-line appliances. From the 11-foot ceilings to the finishes like Carrara marble in the main bathroom, it has good bones and high-end elements that lend modern but can suit any style really. Currently, it has a subdued contemporary-chic look, but buyers with artistic flair can adorn the expansive white walls with paintings bold or a traditionalist can easily warm up the spaces with darker wood and fanciful patterns.
It’s easy to see why a fashion enthusiast, such as Gerber, would love living in this building, too. When you step onto the cobble-stoned street below, there is store after store to pour through and tons of spots to snap “candid” Insta-worthy pics.
Georgia McDonald and Dana Power of The Corcoran Group hold the listing for those interested.
