Highly acclaimed photographer Annie Leibovitz has recently listed her full-floor condominium, situated in New York City’s coveted West Village, on the market for $8.5 million. Leibovitz acquired the live-work condo, currently configured as a photography studio, for $6.5 million in 2022. Nestled within a nine-story, seven-unit building designed by prominent architect and developer Cary Tamarkin, this modern residence features over 60 feet of steel ribbon windows that showcase panoramic views of the Hudson River.
The nearly 3,200-square-foot loft, exuding an industrial-chic style, comprises two bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and one half bathroom, offering a spacious layout for luxurious living.
An expansive living area with a wood-burning fireplace and mesmerizing river and downtown views greets residents, who enter via a keyed elevator. The home features heated bluestone floors, a wet bar, and a fully equipped open kitchen, perfect for culinary endeavors.

Also, a library area with custom bookshelves offers versatility and the potential to be set up as a third bedroom. Notable design elements include floor-to-ceiling exposed columns and unique sculptural ceilings that add architectural interest to the interior.
Leibovitz’s distinct touch is evident throughout the space, currently staged with tasteful photography. Designed to function as both a living space and an office space, the home features a primary bathroom repurposed to accommodate a sizable Epson printer, a primary bedroom serving as a functional office, and a suite of office chairs that adorn the would-be dining area.
Despite the property’s initial purchase price of $6.5 million, Leibovitz aims to fetch a higher sum in the current market. This listing marks another chapter in the photographer’s real estate ventures, offering prospective buyers an opportunity to own a piece of Manhattan’s iconic West Village neighborhood. Deborah Kern of The Corcoran Group manages the $8.5 million listing.
