Babyface’s former eastside crib on the market

The Sutton Place-area townhouse where R&B musician and 11-time Grammy winner Kenneth “Babyface” Edmonds once lived, composed and produced his award winning music, has just gone on the market for sale at $5.25 million.

The four-story home at 241 E. 52nd St. is in mint condition and had previously only been available for rent. At 3,650 square feet, the gorgeous 15-foot-wide manse comes with a front yard and a back garden.

The home includes a chef’s kitchen and a dining/family room on the entrance level, and a floor-through living room and library on the parlor floor. The third floor consists of the master suite with a dressing room and windowed en-suite bath with a fireplace while the top floor has two guest bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms.

The home is wired for sound, natch, and comes with a state-of-the art security system along with a wine cellar and fully finished basement. The listing broker is Tristan Harper, of Douglas Elliman.
