Got $11.995 million lying around? Eager to follow in the dizzyingly high stiletto-clad footsteps of
Mary-Kate and
Ashley Olsen? Then this could be your lucky day.
The palatial five-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bath Manhattan penthouse for which the twin titans shelled out a mere $7.3 million three years ago is back on the market, reports the New York Observer. (For those whose math skills are as deficient as the siblings' septuagenarian hobo chic fashion choices, that's a potential profit of $4.695 million, less the major coin they spent on renovations.)
MK and Ashley purchased the 5,725-square-foot West Village condo when they enrolled at New York University.
But their abbreviated college experience soon turned the elite digs, which were once labeled "the world's biggest dorm room" by the New York Times, into a rental (see pics
here).
The monthly price for the 12-room, 53-window apartment, which comes complete with separate master suites and views stretching from the Statue of Liberty to the Empire State Building? A bracing $35,000.
The pocket-size sisters are still spending plenty of time in the Big Apple. On Wednesday, Mary-Kate looked back in the pink as she stepped out in vertiginous boots following her hospitalization last week for a reported kidney infection. Her pouty-lipped sis, meanwhile, was spotted Wednesday night at a museum event that also just happened to attract her
good pal Lance Armstrong.
