John McEnroe Is Selling His Hamptons House for $14.5 Million

 

 

The most famous tennis player to ever come out of Long Island, N.Y., is selling his Long Island summer home for $14.5 million.
John McEnroe, as well-known for his antics on the court as for his skill—he won seven Grand Slam tournaments—has put his Southampton home on the market. The house sits on 2.17 acres and of course has a tennis court—as well as a Gunite swimming pool. It also features its own stretch of deeded white sand beach.

Inside the home of the former “bad boy” of tennis there are eight bedrooms and seven bathrooms. The master suite has two of the bathrooms and a balcony.
McEnroe, who is 57, won Wimbledon three times and the U.S. Open four times–all between 1979 and 1984. He retired from the pro tour in 1992, but plays on the ATP Champions Tour, where retired pros play each other. He’s been married to musician Patty Smyth since 1997 after divorcing actress Tatum O’Neal in 1994.
He made over $12 million in prize money, in addition to the money he has made from endorsements and his work as a tennis analyst.

A West Village townhouse that’s owned by the family of fine jewelry designer David Yurman hit the market Thursday for $18.45 million.
The red-brick townhouse on Morton Street, built in 1852 for the trustees of Trinity Church, has been featured in several movies.
“Superior design definitely has a timeless attraction,” said listing agent Paula Del Nunzio of Brown Harris Stevens. “Over the years, iconic films such as Mike Nichol’s 1988 ‘Working Girl’ and Robert Redford’s 1994 ‘Quiz Show’ have selected this townhouse to represent the residence of a leading character to radiate charisma and success.”
In addition, the townhouse also served as a home for Matthew Broderick in “The Night We Never Met” and for Winona Ryder in “Autumn in New York.”

Evan Yurman, 35, the son of David Yurman, who founded the namesake jewelry brand in 1980, bought the townhouse through a limited liability company in 2015 for $17 million, according to the listing brokerage and property records.
The younger Mr. Yurman, who is chief design director and head of the men’s collection at the family company, which has 47 boutique stores worldwide and an annual gross sale of over $800 million, declined to comment for this story.
The 25-foot wide, 56-foot deep townhouse has five bedrooms, five full bathrooms and one half bathroom; it boasts high ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows with three exposures, and fireplaces with design details.

Although the townhouse is marketed as a single-family residence, it was used as a multi-family building for years and “in need of total renovation,” the listing said.
There is potential to add an additional 3,000 square feet to the townhouse, which currently encompasses 5,834 square feet of interior living space spanning four above-grade levels, a 1,515-square-foot basement and a 1,130-square-foot garden.
The younger Mr. Yurman and his filmmaker wife, Ku-Ling Yurman, live in a Bohemian-style Tribeca apartment, which was featured in Elle Decor last year.

Gerard Butler Lists Unique $6 Million Duplex

The Manhattan loft is described as modern vintage

Gerard Butler, the Scottish actor and star of movies like “London Has Fallen” and “300,” is listing his apartment in New York City’s Chelsea neighborhood, and the $5.99 million spread is fit for a Spartan.
“He calls it modern vintage,” said listing broker Kevin Sneddon of Private Client Realty. “It’s sort of his style. Every square inch of that place has his fingerprints on it.”
Mr. Butler, 48, bought the two-story loft in a converted manufacturing warehouse on West 19th Street for $2.575 million in 2004, property records show, and began an extensive renovation of the 3,150-square-foot property. “He basically transformed the entire loft,” Mr. Sneddon said, a process that took about four years.
He tapped architect Alexander Gorlin and production designer Elvis Restaino for the home’s individual aesthetic, which “combines old architectural features with modern movie-type construction,” reads the listing.
The resulting home features 11-foot high mahogany doors, a home theater, a ceiling fresco in the foyer, chipped plaster walls, large columns supporting limestone lions and myriad crystal chandeliers, according to the listing, which adds that Mr. Butler describes the loft’s style as “bohemian old-world rustic chateau with a taste of baroque.”

Mr. Butler, whose representatives did not immediately respond to requests for comment, is selling because he is not spending much time in the city, Mr. Sneddon said.
“What I said to Gerry is ‘I’ve got to find another [person like] Gerry for this place,’” Mr. Sneddon said. “The buyer has to have an appreciation for that aesthetic.”  
In 2010, the home was featured in—and on the cover of—Architectural Digest. When discussing the home, designer Mr. Restaino told the magazine, “If there was a track in there and little plastic Viking ships, you could make it into an attraction at Disneyland. Gerry’s place is a ride, man, it’s a ride.”
Mr. Butler is also selling his Los Feliz, California, home, which has been on the market for just over a year with an asking price of $4.395 million.
The New York Post first reported the listing.

Maroon 5’s Adam Levine Selling Two Los Angeles Mansions

‘The Voice’ host is now selling $35 million in Los Angeles real estate, including one property he bought in August

Maroon 5 leading man Adam Levine is making moves, putting two multimillion dollar Los Angeles homes up for sale within 24 hours.
On Monday, Mr. Levine, 38, and his wife, Namibian model Behati Prinsloo, 28, put a Holmby Hills home he bought just four months ago back on the market for $18.9 million. And Tuesday, the singer listed a Beverly Hills mansion he has owned since 2012 for $15.9 million.
The couple purchased the gated estate in Holmby Hills in August for $18 million through a private trust, according to property records. They ripped the Caspar Ehmcke-designed home down to the studs in preparation for major renovations, but changed their minds about the project since Ms. Prinsloo is pregnant with the couple’s second baby, said listing agent Kurt Rappaport of Westside Estate Agency.
With a second little girl on the way, the pop star decided he “doesn’t have the time for a renovation,” Mr. Rappaport said.
They’re marketing the 1960s French Regency-style home as an opportunity to remodel and redevelop a very “prestigious location in the city,” according to the listing.
The “Sugar” singer and judge on “The Voice” had envisioned the home as a place for his growing family. Ms. Prinsloo gave birth to their first child, Dusty Rose, last year.
The house sits on a 1.2-acre lot overlooking the Los Angeles Country Club and the Century City skyline. Outside, the estate has a large pool deck and patio, cabana and two-story guest house.
A day after listing the Holmby Hills estate, however, Mr. Levine put another property on the market—this one a modern, five-bedroom Beverly Hills mansion on 3.6 acres of land—for $15.9 million. He bought the property in 2012 under the same trust for $4.83 million, property records show.

The house has a dramatic great room with a soaring vaulted-ceiling, screening room, separate gym and spa and a two-story car collector’s garage. The home has undergone a complete rebuilt, in which Mr. Levine even carved out his own speakeasy card room, according to the listing, also with Mr. Rappaport.
A publicist for Mr. Levine did not immediately return request for comment.
Variety first reported the listing for the Holmby Hills home.

‘A Faded Glory’: 125-Acre Estate on River Thames Asks £10M

The Oxfordshire, U.K.-property has a 13,368-square-foot house that’s been unattended for four years

A 13,368-square-feet house on the banks of River Thames that needs some repair is offered for £10 million.
1 / 8
A 125-acre estate on the banks of the River Thames in Oxfordshire, U.K., has been put on the market for £10 million (US$13.2 million) in hopes of finding a savior to return it to its old glory.
The estate, dubbed Coombe Park after the street it’s located on, was built in 1865 for James Gardiner, scion of a wealthy Bristol family that made their fortune in sugar and slave-trading.
Standing in the heart of the sprawling property was an 18th-century mansion with an attached wing and a coach house.
The estate was later passed onto the Howard Family, aristocrats famed for breeding racehorses. Under their ownership until after World War II, the estate was extended to 670 acres, dotted with a range of stables, outbuildings, cottages, barns and offices, according to listing brokerages Strutt & Parker and Knight Frank.

The historic mansion was partially demolished during World War II. In 1982, a major restoration effort saw the creation of a 13,368-square-feet residence on the foundation of the old wing and the coach house, featuring five reception rooms, seven bedrooms, four bathrooms and a indoor swimming pool.
“Some 30 years ago, the estate was spectacular,” said listing agent Mark McAndrew of Strutt & Parker. However, it has been “terribly unloved” for the past four years, making it “a faded glory that time forgot,” he said.
He declined to disclose the identity of the current owners or offer reasons for the property’s abandonment.
However, “it has a great location, lots of charm and privacy. Somebody needs to bring it back to life,” Mr. McAndrew said.

The new buyer, ideally, “will either be a developer or a family looking to create their own piece of paradise in the countryside, yet need to still be close to London and Heathrow Airport,” said Rupert Sweeting, head of country house sales at Knight Frank, which is co-listing the property.
The estate is 35 miles away from Heathrow and 45 miles from London. It’s nestled on the southern edge of the Chiltern Hills, an “Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty” according to Natural England, an organization focused on environmental protection.
Recreational facilities nearby include golf at The Berkshire, Wentworth Golf Club and Caversham Heath Golf Club, racing at Ascot and Newbury, as well as polo at both Windsor Polo Club and Guards Polo Club in Windsor Park.

A sprawling estate that was once home to TV game-show hostess Vanna White in Los Angeles’s gated community of Beverly Park hit the market Tuesday for $47.5 million.
Ms. White, 60, who is best known for turning letters on game show “Wheel of Fortune” for 35 years, owned and lived in the mansion on Beverly Park Lane until 2002, when she and George Santo Pietro got divorced.
Ms. White couldn’t be immediately reached for comment.
They purchased a five-acre vacant lot using a trust, property records show, for an unknown amount in the early 1990s around the time they got married and had a two-story Italianate mansion built on it.
The home has 14,554 square feet of interior living space spread over eight bedrooms, 10 bathrooms, a gym with a mini spa, a basement for entertaining with a wine cellar, according to the listing with The Agency.
The home features vaulted ceilings, arched windows, floor-to-ceiling French doors, a set of ironclad staircases and other fine design details.
Outdoors, there is a private pool, a garage and a vineyard that produces its own wine, according to the listing.
Listing agents led by Mauricio Umansky, CEO of The Agency, didn’t immediately respond to request for comment.
Mr. Pietro, a restaurateur, film executive and real estate developer, kept the home after the couple split . For the past couple of years, he has been renting it out for $150,000 to $175,000 a month, according to Multiple Listing Service.
Mr. Pietro, 70, couldn’t immediately be reached for comment. He also developed another mansion on an adjacent lot, which he once put on the market for $50 million but sold for $22.6 million in 2010, public records show.
Beverly Park, an exclusive gated community with 80 large homes (the homes are required to be at least 5,000 square feet) has a slew of celebrity residents, according to The Wall Street Journal, including Barry Bonds, Eddie Murphy, Denzel Washington, Sumner Redstone and Sylvester Stallone.

Japanese Billionaire Slashes Price of Condos at Trump High-Rise

After 31% price cut, the two-apartment combination is now asking $27.5 million

A Japanese billionaire who has struggled to sell two flashy apartments at Trump International Tower in Manhattan took an axe to the asking price on Tuesday.

Katsumi Tada, a real estate developer, is now selling the six-bedroom, six-bathroom spread overlooking Columbus Circle and Central Park for $27.5 million—a 31% price cut from the $40 million he originally wanted for the combined apartments last year.
Mr. Tada—who has a net worth of $1.7 billion, according to Forbes—filled the apartments with extravagant details and furnishings. The foyer has dramatic black-lacquer and gold leaf-gilded doors, four kinds of marble flooring and in other parts, hardwood floors repurposed from a French Chateau throughout, according to the listing with Douglas Elliman’s Margolis Espinal Adler Team.
Listing agent Howard Margolis said his client has dropped the price because he “is ready to sell his asset and wants to be competitive.”
The apartment spans more than 6,300 square feet. Inside, there are expansive entertaining areas, a chef’s kitchen and a wing dedicated to the master suite. Listing agents are marking the palatial master as something that only exists “in the movies or at the Duomo in Florence.”
Besides floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking Central Park, the bathroom clad in blue lapis lazuli stone includes columns that flank a Jacuzzi tub.
The new price is the latest of several strategies the Japanese mogul has taken in the past year to try and unload the extravagantly decorated units.

Mr. Tada, 72, first listed the apartments together in May 2016, and later attempted to sell them separately. He priced the larger unit alone at $29.5 million—more than he’s now asking for the two condos together. (He never officially listed the smaller one alone.) Ultimately, the owner decided the homes had to sell together because he’s integrated them as one unit, Mr. Margolis said. 
Mr. Tada bought the units together for over $26 million in 2008 via his company Daisho Co., public records show. His company develops offices, hotels and malls and owns six residential properties in the Asia Pacific region.
In 2015, he made headlines in Singapore when he sold a penthouse at the St. Regis Residences for a $15 million loss.
Mr. Tada did not return a request for comment.
