An apartment on the same floor as New Zealand-born singer/songwriter Lorde’s home in New York City’s West Village is now on the market, offering a rare opportunity to be neighbours with the Royals artist and friend of Taylor Swift.

However, acquiring this privilege comes with a hefty price tag of US$2.15 million, according to the New York Post.

The cozy one-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment, located at 45 Christopher St, spans about 83sq m.

This listing comes as a contrast to Lorde’s own acquisition, a corner two-bedroom condo measuring 112sq m, which she purchased for US$3.4 million in 2021, slightly below the asking price of US$3.45 million.

The real estate agents responsible for Lorde’s purchase, Olga Reindlova Neulist and Gina M. Kuhlenkamp from Sotheby’s International Realty, along with Deborah Grubman and David Adler from Corcoran, who are handling the sale of the newly listed unit, have opted not to comment on the listing.

The apartment boasts several attractive features, including a living room with a fireplace and extensive built-in shelving, a dining area equipped with a built-in banquette, and a galley kitchen offering ample storage space.

Additionally, the bedroom includes two walk-in closets and a recently updated ensuite bathroom, enhancing the charm and appeal of the property for potential buyers.
