This freestanding Cobble Hill Greek Revival mansion has set a neighborhood record. The property sold for $6.75 million to Rag & Bone co-founder Marcus Wainwright and his model wife Glenna Neece according to Curbed. The house has been on the market for years. It was a House of the Day back in 2010 when it was offered at $7 million but didn’t budge. It came back on the market in October for the same price (when it was a HoTD again) and apparently this time around the price looked right. The 35 x 50 foot free-standing mansion on a double wide lot has parking for four cars. There is an owner’s triplex with art studio space and two rentals with a separate entrance. This Building of the Day post details some of the home’s history.

Wow. That was fast. Very noisy construction has already begun this morning. (After five years of church condo demo and construction, plus multiple gut renos in the immediately area I had hoped that we would be spared for a while.)
Shovel your damn sidewalk
“his model wife”
Is she a wife who’s a model, or is she a model wife?
It’s a fashion label for anyone who does not know.
Me, too!
