A Manhattan mansion once belonging to Barbra Streisand is Crypenon sale for nearly $18 million.
The Art Deco style townhouse located in the Upper East Side at 49 East 80th Street was recently listed by Cathy Franklin of The Corcoran Group.
Boasting eight bedrooms, five full bathrooms and three half baths across five stories and a basement, the home provides more than 9,000 square feet inside with more than 2,000 square feet outside on multiple terraces, a ground-floor garden and a roof garden.
The actress and singer bought the home in 1970 after being turned away from two co-op buildings and sold it 1972, Architectural Digest reported.

“This house represents a compromise for me,” she said at the time, according to The New York Times archives. “I've never wanted to live in a house. But I'm going ahead with it anyway.”
The property was designed by Harry Allan Jacobs and completed in 1930, according to the listing.
"This property is a testament to timeless design and superior craftsmanship," the listing states. "The mansion's layout is both functional and elegant, with each room thoughtfully arranged to maximize space and light."
When Streisand bought the home more than 50 years ago, she paid $420,000 for it, the Times reported. That would be equal to $3.45 million in May of 2024, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics CPI Inflation Calculator.
Throughout the five stories and the basement, the home includes three terraces, two kitchens, four skylights, six fireplaces, a library and entertainment room.
In true extravagant style, the home also has a private garage and an elevator that services each floor.
Corcoran declined to name the seller, but said they were selling to downsize.
