Paul Newman’s NYC maisonette lists for the first time in decades — months after his penthouse sold in a wild bidding war

8 hours ago 1

The Manhattan co-op once used as Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward’s private office and guest quarters has hit the market for the first time in more than four decades — and it’s still furnished almost exactly as the Hollywood couple left it, The Post has learned. 

The two-bedroom, 1.5-bath maisonette, located at 1120 Fifth Ave., was part of the pair’s storied Carnegie Hill residence. 

While the couple’s penthouse upstairs sold in July for a staggering $14 million — 40% above its $9.95 million asking price — this newly listed unit represents a far more accessible slice of Old Hollywood glamour.

Priced at $1.69 million, the apartment served as a quiet creative retreat and guest space complementing their main home above. 

In contrast to the penthouse’s modern updates, the maisonette is very much an idyllic time capsule — and still holds their furniture, art and personal mementos, preserved much as they were during their years together. 

Newman, who died in 2008, shared the residence with Woodward, now 95, who has since withdrawn from public life.

The home’s layout reflects prewar elegance. An expansive foyer leads into a large living and dining area with original architectural details and leafy views toward Central Park. A windowed eat-in kitchen and half bath sit off the main living space, while a private bedroom wing includes two bedrooms and a full bath.

Designed in 1925 by society architect J.E.R. Carpenter, 1120 Fifth Ave. remains one of Carnegie Hill’s most distinguished cooperatives, offering a full-time doorman, a fitness center, a bike room and a resident manager. The building’s location — steps from Central Park and Museum Mile — adds to its historic cachet.

Listing agents Noble Black and Jennifer Kaufman Stillman of the Corcoran Group are marketing the property as a “rare opportunity to own a piece of Hollywood and New York history.”

Newman and Woodward’s top-floor home, which sold after a frenzied bidding war, spanned 3,000 square feet and included two sweeping terraces overlooking Central Park and the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir. 

Their daughter, Clea Newman Soderlund, previously told the New York Times that the family once hosted cocktail and dinner parties there with guests such as Tom Cruise, Cher, and Presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton.
