We look inside Hollywood power couple Maggie Gyllenhaal and Peter Sarsgaard’s US$4.6 million Brooklyn town house
Matt Damon bought a US$16.7 million Brooklyn penthouse in December, and celebrity couple Emily Blunt and John Krasinski splashed out US$11 million for a condo in the same building
Hollywood power couple Maggie Gyllenhaal and Peter Sarsgaard are selling their 3,600-square-foot Brooklyn, New York City town house for US$4.599 million.
As The Wall Street Journal reports, they bought the home at 36 Sterling in Park Slope in 2006 for US$1.9 million. The couple moved in while Gyllenhaal was pregnant with their first daughter; now that both daughters are attending schools outside the neighbourhood, they are listing the house.
According to the Sotheby’s listing, the house has four bedrooms, a fireplace, and a south-facing garden.
