NEW YORK, April 4 (UPI) -- Two Manhattan town houses that belonged to the late pop artist Andy Warhol are up for sale, real estate officials say. A six-story building on East 66th Street that Warhol bought for $310,000 is going for $38.5 million, the New York Post said. The artist lived there from 1974 until his death in 1987.

The current owner bought the 12-room 1910 town house in 2000 for $6.5 million and renovated it. The house now boasts four bedrooms, a full-floor master suite, a rooftop terrace, chef's kitchen, staff suite, gym, elevator and seven fireplaces, the Post said.
A smaller townhouse on Lexington Ave. near 89th Street that once belonged to the artist is being sold for $5.99 million.
Warhol bought that house, where he lived with his mother, in 1959 and moved out in 1974.
The Post said it was the location of the original Factory where Warhol created some of his most well-known works, including his Campbell's Soup cans.
