Lennon's Former Home Sells for $70M
3 Oct
Summary
- John Lennon and Yoko Ono's former NYC rental sold for $70 million.
- The historic townhouse was transformed into a 13,000 sq ft mansion.
- The sale was the most expensive townhouse transaction of 2026.
A West Village townhouse once rented by John Lennon and Yoko Ono has been reimagined as a $70 million Manhattan megamansion. The couple resided at 105 Bank Street in the early 1970s when the building was a century-old townhouse.
Developer RoundSquare acquired the property in 2021 and its neighbor in 2022, combining them into a single 40-foot-wide residence. Designed by Robert A.M. Stern Architects and completed in 2025, the 13,000-square-foot home spans six floors.
The sale of the mansion for $70 million marked New York City's priciest townhouse transaction of 2026. The property was initially listed for $75 million in October 2025 before going under contract in April 2026.
Although significantly modernized, the home retains a link to its musical past through a preserved spiral staircase in the backyard. The six-bedroom residence boasts a 2,000-square-foot primary suite and multiple outdoor spaces.
