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.

According to city records, the current owner, Tractor Supply CEO Hal Lawton, purchased the home in 2017 for $10,500,000, and is now also looking to cut ties with the dwelling—this time seeking $10,995,000.

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.

  • Chilmark House

    Martha’s Vineyard is home to the single largest concentration of our residential work and some of our earliest projects, including the Polly Hill Arboretum. Chilmark House, like many of these commissions, is immersed in the landscape and continually reconnects its inhabitants with the surrounding woods, pools of sunlight and nearby Vineyard Sound. Entire walls and windows are designed to vanish and erase boundaries between indoors and outdoors. We were guided in the earliest phase of the project by the couple’s wish for distinct public and private spaces and the site’s topography. The central public space—the living and dining areas–plus a sitting room in the guest wing, are oriented toward a kind of natural sun-filled well on the house’s south side. Interior load-bearing elliptical columns allow sliding doors and windows to make large openings to the south in the exterior walls. Opposite, on the north side, sliding windows create large gaps in the exterior, connecting the living room and kitchen directly to the woods and waters of the sound. Bedrooms are on the wooded edges, on the east and west sides. A roof deck, terrace and side decks create outdoor living spaces. Shortly after completion of this project, the couple asked us to begin designing a guesthouse nearby as their family continued to grow.
