Steven Van Zandt's former Greenwich Village residence, a dramatic duplex housed in a 19th-century church, is now listed for $18.995 million. The property, which the musician and his wife purchased for $6 million in 2008, underwent recent renovations and staging.
Originally the Washington Square Methodist Church built in 1860, the building was converted into condominiums in 2006. Van Zandt's duplex retains historic elements like stained-glass windows and timber beams, juxtaposed with contemporary industrial features.
The home boasts a 20-foot-ceiling great room and a bold chef's kitchen. An accordion-style glass door opens to a 500-square-foot terrace equipped with an outdoor kitchen, a rare Manhattan amenity.
Downstairs, a leopard-print staircase leads to bedroom suites and a media room. The primary suite features stained-glass windows, a maximalist bathroom, and ample closet space.
Located at the crossroads of Greenwich Village, West Village, and SoHo, the penthouse is near notable parks and public transit. This listing coincides with Van Zandt's expanding creative endeavors.
