Actor Hilary Swank’s Former Greenwich Village Townhouse Hits the Market at $11M

Set on a historic tree-lined street, the swanky abode boasts a master suite that takes up an entire floor.

Beyond the living room is an inviting library. Tasteful built-ins flank the gas fireplace, while a long, plush sofa provides ample seating for gathering.

The four-story townhouse Hilary Swank once owned with her then-husband, Chad Lowe, has found itself back on the market. In 2002, the Award Award–winning actor acquired the West Village brownstone for $3,900,000, and sold it five years later for $8,250,000, shortly after the couple split.  

Upon arrival, double entry doors lead into the sun-bathed parlor floor, which is graced by 11' ceilings. Anchored by an original fireplace, the formal living room is dressed in a neutral color palette, complemented by richly textured hardwoods.

Located on Charles Street, between Seventh Avenue South and West 4th Street, the turn-key property has been impeccably renovated throughout the years, melding charming original detailing with modern allure. With four floors of elegant interior space, the home offers four bedrooms and two-and-a-half baths. While three of the bedrooms are located on the top level, the master suite occupies the entire third floor, which includes a spacious spa bath and a large dressing room and walk-in closet that can easily be converted into a nursery or home office.

In addition to ushering in warm natural light, the library's floor-to-ceiling steel doors open to a spacious terrace, which features a staircase that descends into the backyard.

Rather, it was conceived as a business case to prove that one can create great contemporary architecture that fulfills a demand in the marketplace, while demonstrating that unbridled creativity generates innovative and artful spaces, using conventional and readily available construction methods. All of this was accomplished without breaking the bank and with a typical budget for a house of this kind Located in Toronto’s western lakeside streetcar suburb, this single-family residence proves contextual while owing little to convention and serving as the antithesis to recent vernaculars. By simply and unconventionally engaging the immediate context this contemporary alternative has an impactful, yet unimposing outward presence.
