A lavish three-level penthouse on Manhattan’s Upper West Side — a lair with some star history, no less — is coming back to the market for $50 million after selling just two years ago. Located in the high-profile San Remo, the Wall Street Journal reports the home’s last owner was actress Demi Moore, who sold it to the current — and unidentified — owner for $45 million. That sale price was a full $30 million off Moore’s original $75 million ask in 2014. Before Moore, the home was owned by Bee Gees manager Robert Stigwood. During the time he lived there, he expanded the unit from a duplex to a triplex by buying some mechanical space at the top of...

A Millan House duplex returned to market this week for $6.25 million — up from its $5.9 million asking price earlier this month. The three-bedroom, 3½ bathroom home was formerly owned by real estate heiress/architect/socialite Serena Rhinelander Stewart, whose grandfather William Rhinelander Stewart Sr. commissioned architect Stanford White to design Washington Square Park’s arch. She originally bought it in 2004 from the estate of 1940s author Kathleen Winsor, whose hit “Forever Amber” novel detailed the sexcapades of a woman in 17th-century England. The bestseller was banned in 14 American states as pornography for its sex scenes and abortion...
