Anne Hathaway’s former Midtown love nest hits the market for $19.5M
The Midtown five-bedroom condo once owned by actress Anne Hathaway hit the market this week for $19.5 million. The A-list Oscar winner rented the duplex in the 52-story Olympic Tower on Fifth Avenue for $37,000 per month with ex-boyfriend Raffaello Follieri, who was jailed in 2008 for fraud and money-laundering. Hathaway previously owned a loft in Dumbo’s Clocktower building, which sold for $4.25 million in 2014, and a few years later picked up a Central Park-adjacent penthouse on the Upper West Side for $2.55 million.
The 11-room sterile-looking apartment measures 7,750 square feet across two floors. What it lacks in charm, the unit makes up with sweeping New York City views, with Central Park to the north, East River to the east, and the Empire State Building south.
The sprawling space features a dramatic double entry foyer and gallery, which leads you into a spacious corner living room. Fit for entertaining, the home boasts a wet bar and a dining room that seats 12 people.
The chef’s kitchen has plenty of space to dine and relax in a breakfast nook while enjoying the view through floor-to-ceiling windows. The space is outfitted with stainless steel appliances. A media room features a professional sound system and an eight-foot projection screen.
The corner master suite sits on the second level of the apartment and includes two full bathrooms. There’s also a custom closet with an enormous amount of storage. Skyline views abound from the second floor, which also has two additional bedrooms with ensuite baths. It’s unclear whether the life-size stuffed zebra found in the foyer is included with purchase.
Amenities at the Olympic Tower includes elevator attendants, a fitness center, and 24-hour concierge service.
