400 West Street, Estate of the Day

Filed under: Estates

Today's estate of the day is one we've been looking at for a while. Bob and Cortney Novogratz, who now star on Bravo's "9 By Design," created a truly unique residence at 400 West Street in New York City's West Village. In 2009 we heard that the six-story townhouse, which was then listed at $25 million, was headed to contract, but it wasn't meant to be and the colorful home is still on the market. This summer we learned that Heidi Klum, Seal and their four children stayed there.

The modern home has always attracted attention for its modern looks and its fun details including an indoor basketball court that converts to a screening room and a two-car garage, things that can be a little rare in New York City. The home overlooks the Hudson River and has gorgeous views from different floors. The home opens into a mosaic entry hall and mud room. From this level a stainless steel and glass stair ascends all the way to the top of the home. The parlor floor has a huge open kitchen and dining room and a living room opens to outdoor space. The master suite is on the third floor and there are two bedrooms each on the fourth and fifth floors. The best part of the house might be the stone and wood rooftop terrace with a wet bar and space for a hot tub. This home is now listed at $18.95 million. This home is now listed as a co-exclusive at $18.95 million with Paula Del Nunzio of Brown Harris Stevens and Raphael De Niro of Prudential Douglas Elliman.
