Fashion designer Marc Jacobs’ West Village townhouse went into contract on Wednesday — after being back on the market for just one day.
It hit the market on Tuesday for the reduced price of $12 million with Ryan Serhant and Donna Strugatz of Nest Seekers International.
A day later, it was already in contract.
The four-story, 4,796-square-foot home at 400 W. 12th St. has also sneakily been first listed it in April 2019 for $15.9 million.
Jacobs bought the Robert A.M. Stern-designed townhouse for $10.5 million in 2009; it made the cover of Architectural Digest in 2017.
It features five bedrooms, three bathrooms, two powder rooms, a woodburning fireplace, an elevator, and 1,400 square feet of outdoor space divided between a garden courtyard and rooftop terrace. The townhouse also comes with a hefty $7,719 monthly maintenance fee.
Last month, Jacobs sold off the contents of the townhouse through Sotheby’s Home. Objects d’art up for grabs included wooden sheep for $495, an antique brass tree sculpture for $1,250 and a pair of Louis XVI upholstered fauteuils for $12,995. (An earlier auction of Jacobs’ art collection raked in $8.1 million.)
Because the house is part of condo development Superior Ink — called “townhouse two” — the new owner can take advantage of the building’s amenities, which include a gym, a yoga room, a screening room, a children’s playroom and a lounge with a catering kitchen.
Although Jacobs, 56, loves the West Village, he moved with a 6,000-square-foot Frank Lloyd Wright home in Westchester, which they bought last spring for $9.2 million.
The listing brokers for the townhouse were Ryan Serhant and Donna Strugatz, of Nest Seekers International. We hear, via Instagram, that Clayton Orrigo, of the Hudson Advisory Team at Compass, brought in the buyer.
