Courtney Love’s Former Manhattan Loft Is Up for Grabs at $9.5 Million
When an 1800s corset factory in New York’s Soho neighborhood was converted into a boutique condo in the early aughts, the seven-story building attracted a slew of famous folks.
Among those who scrambled to pick up one of 30 Crosby Street’s 13 units was Lenny Kravitz, who doled out $8 million for a duplex penthouse that he once rented to Nicole Kidman before selling to Alicia Keys and Swizz Beatz for $12.4 million. Courtney Love also shelled out $2.6 million in 2001 for a fourth-floor loft, which the lead singer and guitarist of Hole and widow of Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain offloaded in 2006 for $5 million after riling up neighbors with her famously precarious behavior. Now, almost 20 years later, that residence has popped back up for sale, this time with a $9.5 million asking price.

Last sold in 2012 for a speck over $7 million to Stefan Sonnenfeld and Missy Papageorge, co-founders of the post-production house Company 3 that’s worked on everything from The White Lotus to Beyonce music videos, the seven-room flat has three bedrooms and four baths in roughly 4,100 square feet. The rustic-chic interiors are adorned throughout with hardwood floors, exposed-brick walls, high beamed ceilings supported by the original wood columns, and large industrial-style windows for plenty of natural light.
A private elevator opens into a small foyer, which flows to an open-concept great room holding a kitchen outfitted with an eat-in island that seats four and top-tier appliances, including two Sub-Zero refrigerators, a double oven, a vented cooktop, and a wine cooler. An adjacent living and dining area comes with a black floating-hearth fireplace, as well as a hanging swing, mirror ball, and punching bag.

Sequestered off by themselves are the sleeping quarters, which include two bedrooms with western exposures and a shared bath, as well as a primary suite boasting a dressing room that leads to a spa-like bath equipped with dual vanities, a soaking tub, and a separate shower. There’s also a library sporting built-in bookshelves, plus an office nook and a lounge area that doubles as a gallery.
Rounding out the listing, which is held by Holly Sose, Tim Cass, Katie Johnson, and Sabine Modeste of The Corcoran Group, is a $6,322 per month common charge that entitles the owner to a 24-hour doorman, concierge services, a lobby with an aromatherapy system, climate-controlled wine storage, and a fireside tasting/dining room.
