Moneybags Justin Timberlake sells New York apartment for $5 million...

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Fancy pad: Justin Timberlake has apparently sold his New York apartment for a cool $5 million, according to a real estate blog


With a successful career as a singer and now an actor, Justin Timberlake clearly has money to burn.

Which is clearly how he was able to move into a $6.5 million pad in the New York district of SoHo, while his former plush Tribeca apartment was still on the market.

But now the 30-year-old star has some more cash to spend, after finally selling the plush Tribeca pad for $4.995 million.

The pad, situated in the prestigious Pearline Soap Factory building, was purchased by Timberlake for $4.689 million back in 2008, according to New York Real Estate blog The Real Deal.

Timberlake was originally asking $5.25 million for the pad.


Great views: The large master bedroom featured Brazilian teak wood floors and floor to ceiling windows


Boasting 3,000 square feet of floor space and taking up a full floor of the building, the apartment features stunning Brazilian teak wood floors and high ceilings of around ten feet tall.

The apartment features exposed brick work around the walls and underfloor heating.
Timberlake was also able to soak in a six foot double sized bath tub.

The singer moved out into the nearby district of SoHo, where he bought a unit in the Soho Mews area back in December.

Timberlake is said to have left his Tribeca apartment after growing tired of paparazzi waiting outside.

Timberlake is said to now be single after splitting up with his actress girlfriend Jessica Biel.

But he has recently been linked with House star Olivia Wilde after the pair were spotted partying together in Los Angeles.

Timberlake and Wilde were 'obviously a couple out on a date', one onlooker told Us magazine.

'They were dancing, whispering, he had his hand on her back and shoulders and they were together all night.

'His arm was around her, they were talking closely, just the two of them.
'Justin and Olivia were there with a group, but weren't talking to anyone else,' they added.

Wilde last month filed for divorce from her husband Tao Ruspoli, an Italian prince, after eight years of marriage.

She and Timberlake are currently filming a new movie together alongside Amanda Seyfried and Cillian Murphy.

Now is about a planet where the ageing gene has been switched off and time has become a currency which people can buy.

The singer has made a successful transition to acting, winning critical plaudits for his appearance in Oscar nominated film the social Network last year.

He will next appear in comedies Friends With Benefits opposite Mila Kunis and Bad Teacher alongside old flame Cameron Diaz.
