The Manhattan loft where Heath Ledger passed away just more than 15 years ago has sold for $14.25 million, The Post has learned.
Located in Soho, at 419-421 Broome St., Ledger had rented the 4,400-plus-square-foot unit for roughly $25,000 a month.
Property records obtained by The Post show the home sold last month to an anonymous LLC in an off-market deal.
On Jan. 22, 2008, the Australian actor was found dead in his bedroom — his death caused by an accidental overdose of prescription medication.
Shortly after his passing, the building, built in 1873, was transformed into a condominium and renovated with two stories added.
Made up of three bedrooms and three baths, the unit has an open floor plan with a great room, and comes fully furnished.
The home also includes coffered ceilings and cast-iron columns. Before and after photos show that the unit has remained fairly the same with updated features.
In the years since, the chef’s kitchen has been renovated with high-end appliances. The bedroom has exposed brick, and the bathroom has been updated to include marble walls and flooring.
The unit has 14-foot-high ceilings, and the building also comes with sound-insulated custom windows.
The unit also has a woodburning fireplace, central AC and its own laundry room.
Ledger, who passed away at the age of 28, was found by his housekeeper and a masseuse at around 3:30 in the afternoon that day — and the news spread fast throughout the city. Fans gathered at the building the same day to leave flowers and candles under the flag of Ledger’s native Australia.
Paramedics responded when the actor had gone into cardiac arrest. But their attempts to revive him through CPR were unsuccessful.
In 2021, the triplex penthouse in the building that was built after his death sold for a then-downtown record of $49 million.
A few months before his death, Ledger had finished filming his role as the Joker in “The Dark Knight.” His performance earned him universal praise — as well as a posthumous Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor.
