New York townhouse used in You’ve Got Mail listed for $3.95 million
The five-storey Upper West Side building served as the exterior for Meg Ryan's home in the 1998 film.
A five-storey townhouse on New York's Upper West Side, known as the exterior of Meg Ryan’s home in the 1998 film You’ve Got Mail, is on the market for $3.95 million, according to a report by the Times of India.
The property at 328 West 89th Street was built in 1894. It was converted into a seven-unit multi-family home in the early 1980s and retains that configuration.
Spanning approximately 5,885 square feet, the building includes eight bedrooms and nine bathrooms across five levels and a basement. The residence features a private garden, central air conditioning, and several wood-burning fireplaces.
Listing agent Richard Pretsfelder of Leslie Garfield noted the building has a flexible layout that could serve as an investment or a single-family residence. He described the property as having a handsome brick and limestone façade.
The sale comes as Warner Bros. Pictures develops a new version of the film. Jason Orley is set to direct the reboot, with a screenplay by Deborah Kaplan, Harry Elfont, and Orley.
The original film, written and directed by Nora Ephron, grossed more than $250 million worldwide. While the exterior was used for the movie, interior scenes were filmed on a soundstage in New Jersey.
