Jon Bon Jovi Lists New York Condo – DIRT

Now that he’s settled into his $43 million oceanfront mansion in Palm Beach, veteran New Jersey rock star Jon Bon Jovi, who turns 60 next month and will embark on a cross-country tour in April, is looking to lighten his real estate load, listing his suburban house-sized Manhattan pied-à-terre at $22 million, a tad more than $3 million above the not quite $19 million paid for the place about 4.5 years ago.

On a high floor of The Greenwich Lane, a multi-building complex that takes up nearly an entire city block in the heart of the West Village, and available through Leonard Steinberg at Compass, the condo sprawls across almost 4,000 square feet.

Beyond the foyer and entrance gallery, Bon Jovi’s vast living room stretches to almost forty feet long. Lustrous oak floorboards are stained dark-chocolate; floor-to-ceiling windows swing open to glass-railed Juliet balconies; geometric wall coverings give a slightly disorienting 3-D effect. The kitchen is a gourmet chef’s dream, and the adjoining breakfast room has more floor-to-ceiling windows, plus a small terrace from which there are unobstructed city views.

Originally configured with four bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms, floor plans included with digital listings indicate the larger of the three guest/family bedrooms has had the bathroom removed and the entire space converted to a den/office. The two remaining west-facing guest bedrooms each have a walk-in closet and an inlaid marble bath, while the sun-flooded south- and east-facing primary suite comprises a long dressing hall, a bedroom-sized custom-fitted walk-in closet, and what promo materials describe as a “light-filled bathing sanctuary” with mosaic marble detailing and a radiant heated marble floor.

The Greenwich Lane offers its many well-heeled residents, who include fashion legend Michael Kors, shoe tycoon Tamara Mellon and former Starbucks CEO and executive chairman Howard Schultz, 24-hour concierge and maintenance services, cold storage for food and flower deliveries, and access to a state-of-the-art fitness center that includes a 75-foot swimming pool, steam room, golf simulator and spa treatment rooms. There’s also a garden with reflecting pool, a residents’ lounge, a private dining room with catering kitchen, a 21-seat screening room, and a playroom for the kids.

One of the world’s top-grossing touring bands, Bon Jovi, is hardly “Livin’ on a Prayer.” Commensurate with the front man of an iconic (if nowadays Old School) rock band that grossed $134 million on the road in 2019, the 2018 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee maintains a heavy-duty handful of high-maintenance homes.

As noted by The Wall Street Journal, the first to report on the Manhattan listing, Bon Jovi previously owned another West Village condo, which he acquired in 2015 for $12.88 million, extensively renovated and sold in 2018 for $15 million. He still owns a 1.5-acre estate along one of the most exclusive streets in the Hamptons, as well as an imposing, chateau-style riverside mansion in Middletown, N.J., that he unsuccessfully tried to sell in 2020 at $20 million.

And then there’s his $43 million Palm Beach spread, bought almost two years ago now, which offers the luxury loving “Wanted Dead or Alive” singer seven bedrooms, a dozen bathrooms, an elevator, a temperature-controlled wine cellar, an air-conditioned three-car garage, a poolside cabana, and, the primary reason for the exorbitant price tag, direct access to one of south Florida’s most exclusive stretches of sugary sand and turquoise ocean waters.

Unlike Russians, wealthy Americans are especially fond of real estate owned by celebrities. The popularity of the owner or neighbors worries buyers no less than the characteristics of the object of sale. However, the "star" housing rarely increases its price. Only loyal fans and nouveau riches who dream of acquiring the title along with the old castle are ready to overpay.

Star Stalkers

Real estate of famous people has long been an integral part of the US entertainment industry. Almost every media outlet maintains a section on housing deals for celebrities - famous actors, models, directors, show business figures, etc. , their friends and relatives. There are a huge number of blogs and other Internet resources, the authors of which track any deeds and intentions of public figures in connection with real estate. Buying, selling, renting a house, negotiations and rumors constitute a serious and very popular section of the American media. Architecture, design, amenities, furniture, history and even the layout of "star" housing are discussed with maniacal meticulousness. Experts explain this obsession in different ways. Some say that Americans are just very socially active people, others argue that US residents are no more greedy for big names of property owners than for everything else related to the so-called celebrities. “Americans follow all aspects of the lives of their idols: where do they eat, have fun, what sport do they do, what designer dresses them, etc. It can be said that in general, the life of Americans is inseparable from the life of their idols - mass culture gives rise to a whole highly profitable industry built on the cult of the stars," says Ekaterina Rumyantseva, General Director of Kalinka Realty. It cannot be denied that real estate has become an essential part of this "industry". Century21 West Managing Director Yevgeny Skomorovsky adds: “Americans have a much more developed celebrity industry, where stars are role models for many. development of the Internet and social networks. Therefore, real estate transactions made by celebrities immediately fall into the spotlight. However, it is still impossible to unequivocally state that Americans are especially susceptible to the big names of ex-property owners. They just discuss not only who is with whom sleeps, but also who invests their capital and how. nine0003

So, for example, in Asia the situation is the opposite - there people don't like to "shine" their money, because it's not accepted. In Russia, if a property worth $10 million or more is on sale, the name of its owner often remains a secret even for the buyer. According to Elena Yurgeneva, director of elite residential real estate at Knight Frank, in the UK and other European countries, as a rule, the owner categorically insists that his name should not be disclosed if he is a public figure. Thus, Knight Frank's international database of proposals contains many objects owned by show business stars, famous politicians, public figures, supermodels, etc., however, in all cases, the contract includes a confidentiality clause that does not allow the company to make this information public . "Including this is done in order to avoid circumstances that may lead to a decrease in the value of the object, to give the buyer arguments for bargaining. For example, if a celebrity had noisy parties or something unpleasant happened in the house. It is difficult to find out if the name is unknown owner," says Elena Yurgeneva. But in the US, the sale or purchase of real estate involving celebrity almost always becomes public and subject to discussion. And this hype has very specific goals. nine0003

Wow-factor

The big name of the owner of the real estate put up for sale, first of all, reduces the term of its exposition. This is because the property receives additional publicity – large-scale coverage in the press and the Internet. Realtors often use a big name as an additional advertisement in order to distinguish the object from the general mass of similar offers. Heated interest makes it possible to hold an auction, but does not guarantee a significant price premium. "Despite the fact that the name of a celebrity has a huge effect, such housing is sold like any other. A star owning real estate, in most cases, does not make a premium on the initial cost," says Ellie Johnson, manager of Sotheby's International Realty's in East Manhattan However, it is more correct to say here that the star strives, but rarely receives a price premium. "Sometimes there is some kind of superfan who is ready to buy a house without bargaining, then, of course, it will be more expensive. Some stars, having no particular reason to sell one of their houses, put it up for sale at a deliberately inflated price (sometimes one and a half to two times more expensive than the market) in case there really is a fan buyer, - says Yulia Kainova, Leading Expert at Century21 Beverlywood Realty. - If the star has the intention to sell the house, then the overpriced price by 20 percent as a result of negotiations eventually comes to its market mark. If celebrity doesn't need to sell property, then it can wait years for the fan who will pay more than the market."

Apparently, the musician Jon Bon Jovi is counting on a fan of his work, who recently put up for sale his penthouse in New York for $45 million, despite the fact that he bought it before the crisis for $24 million still not up to pre-crisis levels. So Bon Jovi actually doubled the price. According to Mr. Skomorovsky, the chances of selling a 700-meter penthouse at the stated price are low - you need to love this particular part of New York, and not just the musician's work, in order to agree to give that kind of money. "The declared value is unlikely to attract Russians or Chinese, as well as the fact that the son of Bernie Madoff recently committed suicide in this house. However, the death of Mark Madoff did not affect the desire of Jon Bon Jovi to sell his penthouse at an astronomical price," says the expert . nine0003

However, experts remind that Bon Jovi's penthouse is located at 158 ​​Mercer Street, and this is the most prestigious block in Soho and, perhaps, in all of New York. In addition, houses from stars with a "bad history" often try to sell more expensive than the market, but they do not stay in the same hands for a long time. For example, last year the house of Britney Spears and Kevin Federline was sold (the last house they lived in together): 8 bathrooms, 8 bedrooms, 900 sq. m, on 1.5 acres of land, with a swimming pool, children's pool, spa, stone waterfalls, a play house and a luxury dog ​​house, which Kevin himself used from time to time. The price of such an offer was $13.9In 2010, famous producer and screenwriter Steven Summers bought it, and a year later put it up for sale for $15.95 million Mel Gibson put his estate next door in the spring for $14.9 million

and the so-called wow factor. According to the CEO of Penny Lane Realty Georgy Dzagurov, at least 25% of people, even if they are not fans of someone's talent, are in awe at the appearance of a famous person, get lost during negotiations, which can lead to rash decisions. But here it is worth remembering that it is in developed countries that sellers with open arms rush to buyers before a deal, swear eternal friendship, and after receiving a check, the very next day they will not recognize you at the reception. Material interest prevails here, and the cynicism with which material gain is achieved is unimaginable for the average Russian. nine0003

Rich interior and neighbors

It is much safer to buy a house of long-dead idols, but it will also cost more. For example, Marilyn Monroe's house will cost more than Scarlett Johansson's, even if they are identically located and absolutely identical. However, it is not easy to buy real estate of a long-gone star. According to Ms. Yurgeneva, houses are completely rebuilt every five to ten years, so if the object is not an architectural monument protected by the state, then the chances are that you will receive rarities in the form of stucco molding from Grace Kelly's bedroom or marble that Marilyn Monroe stepped on and other is equal to zero. "It is a completely different matter - objects of architectural and cultural value, where the owners can preserve or recreate the facade in its original form. However, it must be remembered that if this is a castle of some blue-blooded historical personality, the new owner may be required to periodically open it for visiting, which is rather a minus, so it will not be possible to sell such an object for a large amount, "says the expert. However, such an encumbrance will seem ridiculous when it comes to buying a title along with a well-known estate. Julia Kainova tells about a client who dreamed of a title and wanted to acquire a castle that previously belonged to a famous titled person. The search took three years, as a result, the castle of the Italian count was acquired. And although a villa belonging to a more noble person was being sold at the same time on Lago Maggiore, the client opted for a more modest castle with numerous obligations, but with the transfer of title. nine0003

. ..he is trying to sell for $45 million a penthouse in New York that he bought before the crisis for $24 million. The houses owned by the stars are usually decorated with great taste, the best designers were involved in the work. For example, designer and entrepreneur Christian Audiguiere, owner of the well-known brand Ed Hardy, is currently selling two properties. One, worth $7.65 million, is located in Los Angeles in the Hancock Park area, and the other, for $3.29million, located in California's Topanga. "Both objects make an indelible impression. Mr. Audiguiere treated this property as art, sparing no time on them, thinking through every detail. Both objects can really be considered works of art," says the head of sales in foreign markets of Moscow Sotheby`s International Realty Tatyana Nikishina.

The owner of Adidas sells a unique villa in Lugano (Switzerland), where, according to his order, an unprecedented renovation was made using gold and precious stones. According to Century21 Beverlywood Realty, this villa is listed for €60 million. "But here, as in the case of Bon Jovi, the price is determined not by the name, but by the unique, grandiose finishes," says Ms. Kainova. However, despite the fact that the stars often declare a unique design and invest really a lot of money in finishing, it is difficult to realize such an object. “Here you need an amateur, you should be lucky with the buyer,” Blackwood experts say. nine0003

Those who want to save money can be satisfied with real estate in the neighborhood with the stars. “There are many opportunities to buy housing near celebrities, such an acquisition will cost less than the houses of stars. At the same time, the buyer will be able to personally watch, for example, Angelina Jolie playing on the lawn with numerous children,” says Julia Legrand, head of special projects at EliteCenter. However, "My close friends live in Brentwood, California, next door to the house owned alternately by Michelle Pfeiffer and her husband, the Banderas-Griffiths and Dylan McDermotts," says Mr. Skomorovsky. at home of my friends did not grow, on the contrary, questions arose: why the star neighbors change so often, maybe something is wrong here.0003

Intangible pleasure

Experts believe that it makes no sense to buy "star" real estate for investment purposes. Such objects have the highest percentage of depreciation immediately after the first transaction. To make money by investing in celebrity real estate, you need to invest in what megastars like Elvis or Michael Jackson owned.

"Star real estate is just as affected by the market situation as usual. The inadequacy of sellers in assessing the proposed real estate is the same among ordinary citizens and among celebrities. For example, Madonna (or other celebrities of the same level) can be get more only in two cases: the market will return to the pre-crisis state, which seems unlikely, or if you are lucky and get a buyer-collector who wants to add Madonna's house to his collection," says Ekaterina Rumyantseva from Kalinka Realty. nine0003

Investors should invest in properties where stars live today. Their presence radically increases the prestige of living. “Sharing a swimming pool with Barack Obama, taking children to the school where Angelina Jolie’s children study, solving problems with the head of the State Department in the elevator, and your children, what is even more valuable, are friends with the offspring of the powerful,” says Mr. Dzagurov.

Most of all such "star" real estate in Los Angeles and New York. Not far from New York there are towns where the concentration of "star" owners is very high. In such areas, the cost of any house is high, which confirms the demand for such housing. The same can be observed in New Jersey, in cities such as Alpine and Short Hills, where, according to EliteCenter, a house costs at least $ 2-3 million. Do you want to become neighbors of Russian stars? Then the direct road to Miami. If you love Alla Pugacheva, stay on Collins Avenue in Bal Harbor; like Zhanna Friske - buy at Meridian Avenue in Miami Beach. Knight Frank says that properties located on the first line by the sea are always in demand, for example, Le Parc de Saint Tropez, where Brigitte Bardot and other figures of French culture live. An indisputable plus of such an acquisition is the guarantee of privacy and prestige that the stars living nearby provide. What else does an ordinary oligarch need to be happy? nine0052 Mel Gibson Malibu, Califony $ 11 75 000 estate about 200

Biography

Jon Bon Jovi is a cult American musician, the permanent leader of the musical group of the same name and the idol of more than one generation of rock music fans. But even among the admirers of his work, not everyone knows that the creative biography of Jon Bon Jovi is not limited to music alone. nine0003

The future musician was born on March 2, 1962 in the USA, in the town of Perth Embroy, in New Jersey. This is where the Bon Jovi family lived. John Francis, the boy's father, worked as a barber. Carol, John's mother, was a florist. From an early age, the boy showed an interest in music: John mastered guitar frets and often performed with local musical groups.

The boy's cousin liked the songs of Jon Bon Jovi, and John got permission to use the equipment in his relative's own recording studio. The first composition that the public met was the song "Runaway", which was even played on local radio stations. And even then it became clear that the young talent would not stop there. nine0003

Music
In 1983, the aspiring musician took his first steps towards real fame: John founded his own musical group and gave it his name. At that time, there were six members in the Bon Jovi group, including John. Good luck accompanied this undertaking, and a year later the team managed to conclude a contract with Mercury. It seemed like a miracle - many aspiring bands and performers of that time dreamed of such a lucrative contract. In 1984, the debut album "Bon Jovi" was released, named after the group. nine0003

Jon Bon Jovi in ​​his youth
The first disc was so successful that a year later the group recorded the next album - "7800° Fahrenheit", which broke sales records and did not leave the first lines of the music top lists for weeks. Further albums by Jon Bon Jovi and his teammates were released with enviable regularity: in 1986, Slippery When Wet appeared, and already in 1988, New Jersey.

By this time it became clear that the musical career was a success: the group had become a truly "star". The team traveled around with tours, each concert of Jon Bon Jovi and the team became a bright and unforgettable event, the music of "Bon Jovi" came from every radio, and photos of the musician adorned the walls of fans all over the world. nine0003

Jon Bon Jovi and the band "Bon Jovi"
According to rumors, the resounding popularity and heavy touring schedule almost destroyed the band. Constant stress and serious workload caused conflicts and chronic fatigue of the musicians. However, the group managed to cope with the difficulties, and in 1992 the next album "Keep the Faith" was released, and three years later - "These Days".

In parallel with the work in the team, John worked on solo projects. The first of them, "Blaze of Glory", named the same as the opening track of this disc, brought John honorary music awards. And at 19In 1997, the musician gave fans the album Destination Anywhere, which became a hit both in his native America and far beyond its borders.

Jon Bon Jovi on stage
The musicians spent the next two years resting and restoring their creative powers. Fans patiently waited for the return of idols, and this expectation paid off handsomely: the song "It's my Life", released in 2000, blew up all kinds of hit parades and chart lists. This song topped the band's new record called "Crush".

The band's subsequent work and John's solo singles became no less popular. In addition to the song "It's my Life", it is worth noting the hit "Always", as well as Leonard Cohen's composition "Hallelujah", soulfully performed by John. The clips of Jon Bon Jovi filmed for these musical works are still popular. nine0003

Movies
In the case of Jon Bon Jovi, the well-known saying about talented people, talented in any field, is completely true. In addition to music, the artist was also interested in cinema. In 1988, John was offered a small role in the film The Return of Bruno, and in 1990 the musician starred in episodes of the film Young Guns 2. These episodes were so small that John's name did not even get into the credits, but they marked the beginning of the rock star's acting career. Already in 1995, John, along with Gwyneth Paltrow, Whoopi Goldberg and other stars, appeared in the frames of the film Moonlight and Valentino. nine0003

Jon Bon Jovi in ​​Moonlight and Valentino
A year later, fans saw Jon in the drama Leader, as well as in a short film made by the musician especially for his solo record Destination Anywhere. Films with Jon Bon Jovi continued to come out, the pictures "Lovers" (in 1997) and "Homegrown" (a year later, in 1998) appeared. In 2000, the world saw a serious military drama called "U-571". This picture of Jonathan Motov about the events of World War II did not leave indifferent either fans of the actor or cinema lovers. John played the role of Lieutenant Pete here. nine0003

Jon Bon Jovi in ​​the film "U-571"
In the same year, the touching story "Pay It Forward" was released, telling about a little boy who decided to make the world a little better. It turned out that this seemingly impossible task does not require special efforts, you just need to take the first step. In addition to these film credits, John's credits include roles in Fahrenheit 9/11, Lone Wolf, America: A Tribute to Heroes, Sex and the City, and Puck! Puck!

Personal life
Unlike many colleagues in the rock shop, Jon Bon Jovi proved to be a wonderful family man. And although the tall, handsome blonde (Jon Bon Jovi's height is 175 cm) had no end to admiring fans, John chose the fate of a monogamous for himself. And I didn't guess. In 1989, the musician married his school friend Dorothea Harley. It is worth noting that Jon Bon Jovi's wife is also an interesting person: the girl is familiar with martial arts firsthand and even earned a black belt in karate.

Jon Bon Jovi and wife
The lovers decided to get married spontaneously: the couple went for a walk in Las Vegas, where they legalized the relationship. This union became a happy one, but sometimes John and Dorothea had disagreements. At one of these moments, the song "Janie" was born, which the musician's fans liked so much.

Jon Bon Jovi with his family
Additional evidence that the marriage turned out to be truly happy was the children that John and Dorothea have four. In 1993, the musician's first daughter, Stephanie Rose, was born. Two years later, Dorothea gave her husband their first son, named Jesse James Louis. Boys Jacob Harley and Romeo John were born in 2002 and 2004 respectively. nine0003

Jon Bon Jovi now
John had a hard time in 2013: Richie Sambora, the band's musician, left the band ahead of a massive world tour.

“It was a very, very difficult time and I still haven't recovered, but my wife has been fantastic supportive,” the musician admits. “I don’t know how I would have coped without her.”
But even this obstacle turned out to be surmountable. Now Jon Bon Jovi continues to perform, write music and act in films. In 2016, the band released their next album, This House Is Not for Sale. nine0003

In addition to creativity, John is actively involved in charitable projects. The Bon Jovi Soul Foundation helps underprivileged people. The musician builds houses for the needy at his own expense. Bon Jovi also opened a restaurant where visitors can pay not with money, but with some kind of work.

The musician's fans are looking forward to the next album of the legendary band, but in the meantime, the official website and Instagram of Jon Bon Jovi have published a schedule of the big tour planned by the musicians for 2017. nine0003
