Bill Cosby Lists Luxurious Townhouse in NYC's Upper East Side for $29 Million
The disgraced comedian is selling his lavish mansion, but the seller's name is noticeably absent from the listing.
Disgraced comedian and accused serial rapist, Bill Cosby, is making headlines once again. This time, it's not for his controversial past, but for his decision to sell his luxurious townhouse located in New York City's Upper East Side.
Cosby's seven-story limestone and copper mansion, located at 18 East 71st Street, is now on the market for a whopping $29 million. The property, which he purchased in 1987, features six bedrooms, eight bathrooms, and numerous opulent amenities.
However, what's most striking about the listing is the absence of Cosby's name as the seller. The listing simply states "18 East 71st Street LLC" as the owner, leaving out any mention of the disgraced comedian.
According to sources, Cosby's name was removed from the listing in order to avoid any negative associations and potential backlash from potential buyers. It's no secret that Cosby's reputation has been severely tarnished in recent years, making it difficult to sell any property associated with him.
As for the property itself, it's no surprise that this townhouse comes with a hefty price tag. In addition to the six bedrooms and eight bathrooms, the mansion also boasts a private elevator, multiple fireplaces, a rooftop terrace, and a grand spiral staircase.
While Cosby's name may be absent from the listing, it's clear that his lavish lifestyle is still present in this luxurious townhouse. And with the current state of the real estate market in New York City, it will be interesting to see who ends up purchasing this lavish property.
