The price on the Brooklyn home where Truman Capote lived and wrote Breakfast At Tiffany's and In Cold Blood has dropped for a fourth time since hitting the market in May 2010, according to Curbed.
Initially listed at $18 million, the five-story, double-width, high Greek-Revival four-bay townhouse is currently on sale for $13.995 million.
Capote rented the garden apartment in the townhouse from 1955 to 1965.
Built in 1839, the home features a three-story elliptical mahogany staircase with rosette oculus window at the top.
Here are other highlights: 38 windows have east, south, and west exposures, 11 fireplaces, 11 bedrooms, 7.5 baths, and a private gated driveway, 12-ft. ceilings, artist’s studio, and library.
The house was built in 1839, and is 9,000+ sq. ft.
