Today is a day of good news for townhouses, so let's put a townhouse in the spotlight. The property shown above, 46 Morton Street, might just be the townhouse that has everything: a 2,000-square-foot garden, a recent sale after only 10 days on the market, and a pair of new celebrity owners in Sofia Coppola and her husband, Phoenix front man Thomas Mars. The couple paid $9.85 million for the 5,719-square-foot house. That's a neat $1 million above the asking price?especially impressive since the property is still divided into apartments. A single-family conversion would cost another $4 million or so, according to the Journal. We have to say, we like it just the way it is.
