After a third price reduction, four-time Oscar-winning actress Katharine Hepburn’s longtime residence in New York City is now looking for $6.195 million. In 2024, the 19-foot-wide townhouse on the east side of Midtown Manhattan was listed for $7.2 million. Listing data indicates that the price underwent two reductions in 2025 and one more this year. The star of The Philadelphia Story is believed to have owned the house from 1931, shortly before her Hollywood debut, until her death in 2003 at the age of 96.

Katharine holds the record for the most Academy Awards won by a performer, male or female. She received Oscars for Best Actress in 1934 for Morning Glory, in 1968 for Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner, in 1969 for The Lion in Winter, and in 1982 for On Golden Pond. Katharine owned the house from 1931, shortly before her Hollywood debut, until her death in 2003 at the age of 96. Hepburn’s estate sold the townhome to the current owner in 2004 for $3.9 million.
