Country music superstar Zach Bryan has been linked to the purchase of a 179-year-old West Village townhouse, Gimme Shelter can exclusively reveal.
The historic home was purchased via an LLC for $13 million for the historic home, sources said. It was last asking $15.75 million.
The 22-foot-wide red brick townhouse on tree-lined Hudson Street was built in 1847 and meticulously renovated.

The stunning 6,543-square-foot residence spans seven levels, including two below ground, and comes with four bedrooms, three baths and two powder rooms.
There’s also an additional 1,766 square feet of outdoor space with a garden, three terraces, plus a roof deck with views of the Empire State Building and the World Trade Center.
The seller bought the residence for $9.9 million in 2013 — from JLow LLC, which paid $2.8 million for the home in 2010. While “JLow” echoes the name of Malaysian fugitive Jho Low, architect of a $4.5 billion 1MDB sovereign wealth fund fraud, there is no evidence that the property was ever connected to him, according to US government officials.
Andrew Berry, managing director at Cushman & Wakefield, represented the buyer of the townhouse. In an interview, Berry told Gimme Shelter that the buyer was Bryan’s manager, Stefan Max. In a statement, Berry said: “Stefan Max, Zach Bryan’s manager, is the buyer and exclusive beneficiary of this property. Mr. Max’s client [Bryan] was not involved in the purchase, nor will he be involved in or reside at this property in the future.”
Several sources, however, told Gimme that Bryan is indeed the beneficial owner and that there are plans to turn the ground floor of the townhouse — which was once home to the now shuttered Michelin-starred eatery Piora — into a bar.
“He [Bryan] bought it for himself,” a source said.
The townhouse purchase also comes shortly after Bryan’s New Year’s Eve marriage to Samantha Leonard, an NYU alumna, in San Sebastian, Spain. Bryan was previously in a well publicized relationship with Barstool Media personality Brianna “Chickenfry” LaPaglia — who recently moved from New York to Florida — and had been previously married to Rose Madden from 2020 to 2021.

The purchase comes in time as the weather begins to improve, which means outdoor hangouts. Interiors by KatThe home, which was first renovated by architect Andrew Franz, underwent an additional renovation by Jonathan Schloss Architects.
Design details inside the townhouse include an elevator, reclaimed antique oak floors, a Lutron lighting and shading system, floor-to-ceiling windows, a working gas fireplace, plus radiant heated floors in select areas.
It’s all anchored by a white chef’s kitchen with a breakfast bar, and stairs in the background.
The listing brokers were Nicole Palermo and Ryan Serhant, of Serhant, and Brock Emmetsberger of Matthews Real Estate Investment Services.
