EXCLUSIVE: Inside David Muir’s Stunning $7.5 Million New York City Townhouse

ABC’s World News Tonight anchor David Muir is giving fans a rare glimpse into his private life — by listing his historic Manhattan townhouse for $7.5 million. Nestled in the heart of the West Village, the four-story property blends 19th-century charm with modern luxury.

A Historic Gem in West Village

Built in 1877 in the French Second Empire style, the townhouse is located at 256 West 4th Street, one of Manhattan’s most coveted addresses. Measuring 2,280 square feet, the home features three bedrooms and three bathrooms.

Though just 15 feet wide, the property is filled with character — from ornate plaster moldings and medallions to original wood detailing.

Classic Meets Contemporary

Muir purchased the home in 2013 for $4.2 million, a year before stepping into the anchor chair at World News Tonight. Since then, it has been fully upgraded with modern conveniences including:

Central air conditioning

Updated plumbing and electrical systems

A built-in Sonos sound system

Despite the renovations, many period details remain intact, including four decorative fireplaces, a formal dining room, and soaring ceilings that bring in natural light.

Private Garden Escape

Perhaps the most surprising feature is the townhouse’s private garden — a rare luxury in New York City. Perfect for entertaining or quiet evenings away from the spotlight, the outdoor space is an urban sanctuary.

On the Market

Now listed for $7.5 million, the property is attracting interest not just for its celebrity owner but also for its prime location and blend of historic and modern features.

With Muir continuing to anchor one of America’s most-watched evening newscasts, fans are left wondering — where will the journalist’s next home base be?
