<\/p>\n

The home where jazz legend Billie Holiday<\/strong> may have sung in the shower has now been transformed into a huge, modern townhouse. It\u2019s also available for $13,995,000.<\/p>\n

\u201cLady Day\u201d spent her days in apartment 1B when the Upper West Side building in New York City<\/a> was divided into multiple units.<\/p>\n

Holiday, born Eleanora Fagan<\/strong>, lived at this address until she died in 1959 at the age of 44. Her last album, \u201cLady in Satin,\u201d was released just a year earlier.<\/p>\n

\u201cLegacy properties always have a certain allure and cachet, especially in New York City. And a legacy townhouse, especially one rooted in history with modern amenities, is always highly coveted,\u201d says listing agent and celebrity broker Kelly Killoren Bensimon<\/strong>, of Douglas Elliman and \u201cReal Housewives of New York City\u201d fame.<\/p>\n

Too Marvelous townhouse<\/h2>\n

The 20-foot-wide townhouse dates to 1910. It was last sold in 2017 for $9,475,000, after being featured on Bravo\u2019s \u201cMillion Dollar Listing\u201d with agent Ryan Serhant<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Since then, the six-level townhouse a block from Central Park has undergone a major renovation, creating a light and bright townhome, which Bensimon notes is unusual for its size.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe\u00a0interiors are of the highest quality, with interior design by Fawn Galli<\/strong> and a full renovation by Amie\u00a0Sachs<\/strong>, formerly of Annabelle Selldorf architects,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n

With 6,300 square feet of living space, including seven bedrooms and six full bathrooms, the townhouse features 10-to-12-foot ceilings and restored fireplace mantels.<\/p>\n

The parlor level includes the entry (with majestic mahogany doors), living room, high-end kitchen, and grand dining room.<\/p>\n

Bedroom<\/p>\n

The 1,100-square-foot primary suite takes up the entire third level. It\u2019s described as \u201ca romantic, sophisticated, and functional space to relax and recharge.\u201d<\/p>\n

The remaining bedrooms are split between the fourth and fifth floors.<\/p>\n

The two lower levels feature a media room with wallpaper designed by Lenny Kravitz<\/strong> and a full kitchen with garden access.<\/p>\n

The basement has plenty of storage or playroom space as well as a climate-controlled wine room, a laundry area, and a half-bathroom.<\/p>\n

While historic, the melodic space boasts modern amenities.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe technology in the home is also next-level, with an entire-house humidification system and brand-new, multizoned central HVAC, as well as a commercial-grade Wi-Fi system and Cat6 internet network system,\u201d Bensimon says.<\/p>\n
