Sculptor John Mosler is listing his Brooklyn property for $7.88 million, The Post has learned.
Located in the Carrol Gardens/Gowanus area, the townhouse occupies over 5,700 square feet and has primarily been used by Mosler as his work studio. Specifically, the property has functioned as a an artist studio, a workshop and a gallery.
Designed by Marvel Architects and Maum Design, what stands out is the studio’s purple brick facade and pink door — adding to a grand warehouse aesthetic.
Located at 47 Fourth St., the interiors are modern and incorporate industrial elements, paying homage to the neighborhood’s history.
Mosler was the subject of a 2015 New York Times profile about how he left his high-pressure day job on Wall Street to pursue his passion for art.
After strategically shifting to less time-consuming, high-level finance positions, he saved millions of dollars to build and operate his own studio and gallery‚ allowing him to make art on his own terms for the rest of his life.

Mosler collaborated with his wife, Jean Won Mosler, who owns Maum Design, to transform the space to be able to work and showcase his work under one roof.
“Our design goals in this project were to merge art, life and work into one space by converting two warehouses into purpose-built and inspiring environments that stimulate artistic expression and provide transformative spaces to fuel the artist’s creative journey,” she told The Post.
The ground floor features 90 feet of space with 17-foot ceilings, creating an open layout.
At the heart of the building is a 30-foot interior glass atrium, almost a secret garden of sorts, that seamlessly connects the two warehouses. One side of the property includes a gallery — as well as an entertainment and living space, complete with a 12-foot glass folding wall, a 6-foot linear gas fireplace and an office/guest room.
