Spectacular NYC Mansion Included in Netflix Comedy’s ‘Uncoupled’ Lists for Nearly $12 Million
A visually stunning, 25-foot wide ‘architectural masterpiece’ from the Netflix romantic comedy ‘Uncoupled’, starring Neal Patrick Harrisjust hit the market in New York’s Midtown West neighborhood for $11,750,000.
The six-story mansion has decades of ties to Hollywood, appearing in everything from “Law & Order” and “Good Morning America” to “HBO: The Other Two” and “CBS The Second Wave.”
“My client tells me he has an agent for the home,” says listing agent Clara Chung, by Douglas Elliman. “He uses it as a living/working space and consciously uses it for photo shoots and production.”
Built in 1910, the five-bedroom residence has been thoughtfully updated over the years to offer a luxurious 7,000-square-foot open floor plan.
Historic highlights that remain intact include loft-inspired ceiling heights, fitted wardrobes and garden and roof terraces.
The home last traded in 2021 for $7,500,000. Chung says the renovations were done by the previous owners.
“You can’t really appreciate the light until you’re in the space,” she says. “It feels like a downtown loft with its incredibly wide interior.”
A striking parlor level features a two-story living room with 20-foot ceilings; a floor-to-ceiling, wood-burning fireplace; and glass wall overlooking a terrace overlooking the garden.
The luxurious chef’s kitchen features high-end appliances, marble countertops and an oversized breakfast bar. A nearby dining room is designed for both lavish entertaining and intimate gatherings.
A garden level specially designed for large-scale entertainment, it features a recreation room with a bar, beer tap, mini fridge and dishwasher. It also has access to a beautifully landscaped garden, designed for relaxing.
“The media room has its own kitchen, table tennis table and arcade,” says Chung. “There is even a card table that can be used for poker nights.”
The dramatic primary suite on the penthouse level features a spa-inspired bathroom, walk-in closet and private terrace. There is also access to a rooftop deck with wet bar and gas fireplace, ideal for morning coffee or a nightcap while taking in the breathtaking views.
“It’s in a typical New York neighborhood,” she says. “Around the corner at number 9e Avenue, there are incredible restaurants. You can imagine scenes in a show while walking to a restaurant.
Notable details throughout the home include reclaimed wood accents, a sculptural steel and glass staircase, custom millwork, and cove-lit coffered ceilings. Other highlights include smart home automation, in-ceiling surround sound, commercial-grade mechanicals and a rooftop generator for uninterrupted power.
“I think the next buyer will be someone in entertainment, technology or finance,” Chung says. “It will be someone who enjoys city living and appreciates the smart home system. The previous owner was a family with children, so it could be used as a primary residence, or it could be someone on the older side who appreciates Lincoln Center and Carnegie Hall.”
Ideally located minutes from Central Park, Columbus Circle, Hudson Yards and Broadway theaters, the sophisticated stacked estate can also be used as an investment property.
“You can be anywhere in ten minutes,” she adds. “It is a very special mansion, but you may not immediately recognize how special it is from the outside.”
