He was demonized in the hit play “Hamilton,” but Aaron Burr’s name still sells New York real estate.

Burr, who infamously killed Alexander Hamilton — the nation’s first Treasury secretary and founder of the New York Post — in an 1804 duel, owned a plot of land in Greenwich Village north of his lower Manhattan country estate.

Now a historic 19th-century townhouse built on his property, at 17 Commerce St., has sold for $4.8 million, according to city property records.

The new buyer is top artist Walton Ford, whose work graces the Museum of Modern Art and the Smithsonian American Art Museum, among other US museums, sources said.

“Hamilton definitely raised the home’s profile,” said Bernice Leventhal, a broker with the Corcoran Group, who co-listed the property with Sarah Thompson.

“The buyer loved the historic character of the house and its authenticity,” Leventhal said.

The home is known as the “Aaron Burr House.”

The two-story red-brick Federal townhouse was built in 1830 by stonecutter Abraham Bogert.
