Anne Hathaway and her husband Adam Shulman are selling their incredible New York penthouse for £2.7million ($3.5million), just four years after they bought it. The Oscar-winning actress bought the two-bedroom, two-bathroom residence on the Upper West Side near Central Park for £1.97million ($2.55million) and has since carried out extensive renovation work, including raising the ceilings and installing parquet flooring, which will no doubt have helped add to its value.

The peach and burgundy tones in the entrance and music room were inspired by a favourite Gucci shirt, while Rihanna’s famous imperial-yellow cape from the 2015 Met Gala helped to influence the golden fabrics and carpet in the music room and den.

Anne told Architectural Digest that the music room is one their favourite spots in the house, and has been kitted out with an early 20th century disco ball from a Turkish spa, a piano, a sparkly Yves Klein Monogold table, and comfortable seating for the couple’s guests. Anne explains: "This room has been a long-held fantasy of ours – a place where the people we love can gather and our musician friends can play. It’s the heart of the house."
