NYC's 'skinniest' house sells for US$2.1M

A town house dubbed New York City's skinniest house has sold for US$2.1 million.

The red, 9.5 foot wide, 42 foot (3 by 12 meter) long brick building in Greenwich Village was built in 1873 on land used as an alley between homes. The town house was listed for sale last August at US$2.7 million. The two bedroom, two bath home last sold in 2000 for US$1.6 million.

A plaque on the narrow Bedford Street home notes poet Edna St. Vincent Millay once lived there; so did anthropologist Margaret Mead.

The newly-sold building was listed on real estate Web sites yesterday as a rental available for US$10,000 a month. An e-mail seeking comment from the listed rental agent Wednesday was not immediately returned.
