Bruce Willis Lists Central Park West Apartment for $13M

December 8, 2014

Bruce Willis is really stepping up his New York real estate game. Just five weeks after buying a $12 million, 22-acre estate in Bedford, New York, he and his wife, actress Emma Heming Willis, have listed their three-bedroom Central Park West co-op at the El Dorado for $13 million. The Daily News reports that the couple is looking to trade up to a bigger unit now that they have a second child.

Willis bought the apartment at 300 Central Park West less than two years ago for $8.85 million from U2 bassist Adam Clayton. And after a meticulous renovation, he’s looking to make $4 million on the flip.

The elegant home is decorated with a mix of classic pieces and mid-century modern touches, and it features patina-finish steel doors, sleek molding, gray walnut paneling and herringbone floors. But all eyes are on the 50 feet of Central Park views that line the spacious living and dining areas.

The beautiful kitchen was created from two pre-existing maids’ rooms and now boasts two large windows, custom Bilotta cabinets, white subway tiled walls, Pyrolave counters, top-of-the-line appliances, and a washer/dryer.

Tucked away in the corner of the apartment is the master suite, which comes complete with even more Central Park views. The en-suite master bath has a luxurious steam shower and Carrara marble, and just off the bath is a large dressing room.

Reportedly the Willis couple used the home as an occasional pied-à-terre, so we wonder if their upgraded digs will serve as more of a permanent residence.

The El Dorado apartment of renowned art collector and ‘Beastie mom’ Hester Diamond asks $19.5M

By Michelle Cohen

An apartment in the El Dorado at 300 Central Park West is an enviable enough thing on its own, even without the added cachet of belonging to the estate of Hester and Harold Diamond, owners of one of the world's finest art collections and parents of Mike Diamond of Beastie Boys fame, whose childhood home this was, Picassos and all. Ms. Diamond, who passed away in 2020 at 91, was an art dealer and collector whose collection of Old Masters and Modernist art, according to the New York Times, included Picasso, Mondrian, Rothko, and many more. Asking $19,500,000, the duplex co-op in one of New York City's most venerable buildings is museum-sized at 6,300 square feet with 800 square feet of terrace space and peerless park and skyline views.

Moby’s former Central Park West turret penthouse is four floors of views for $5.75M

By Dana Schulz

We've gotta hand it to Moby--he has had some killer taste in real estate over the years, from his "tiny but charming" Nolita penthouse to the incredible midcentury house in Westchester he sold for charity. But perhaps the most fabulous place of all was his four-story penthouse at the iconic El Dorado on Central Park West, where he lived from 2005 to 2008. Not only is the sprawling co-op located in the landmarked building's south tower (it occupies the entire 31st, 32nd, 33rd, and 34th floors), but it boasts four landscaped terraces with sweeping skyline and Central Park views. First reported by the Post, it's now back on the market for $5,750,000.

Michael C. Hall buys $4.3M El Dorado classic six

By Michelle Cohen

The iconic El Dorado seems to have retained some of its celebrity cachet despite the decampment of Alec Baldwin and Bruce Willis; the New York Post reports that Michael C. Hall of "Dexter," "Six Feet Under" and David Bowie’s “Lazarus” fame just snagged a 10th floor apartment at 300 Central Park West. The Golden Globe winner and his wife Morgan paid $4.3 million for a newly-renovated 2,200 square-foot two-bedroom unit in the Emery Roth-designed co-op, according to city records. The Golden Globe-winner also owns a two-bedroom apartment in the pricey Greenwich Lane complex at 160 West 12th Street which was on the rental market last year for $15,000 a month.

Director Ron Howard lists Central Park West co-op in the Eldorado for $12.5M

By Annie Doge

For $12.5 million, you can live in Oscar-winning director Ron Howard's classic Upper West Side co-op. He and wife Cheryl told the Wall Street Journal that they decided to list the three-bedroom spread at the iconic Eldorado--which they bought in 2004 for $5.575 million--to move farther downtown, closer to Howard's editing and post-production facilities. Not only does the home occupy the 26th floor of the Art Deco building's north tower, but it has a private elevator landing, 50 feet of direct Central Park frontage, and a flexible layout perfect for entertaining that the Howards implemented as part of a complete renovation.
