New York City properties don't come much finer than this six-bedroom apartment overlooking Central Park on the Upper West Side which is probably why Hollywood star Bruce Willis chose it as his base in the city three years ago. Willis bought the property from NBA player Milwaukee Bucks in 2015 who had converted it from two apartments into a single family home spanning over 6,000 square feet. It is now the second New York property the actor is offering for sale as he plans a move to join the rest of his family on the US west coast. As well as the six large bedrooms, the property also boasts 4.5 bathrooms, an airy living area, dining room and open-plan kitchen with breakfast bar. Willis is said to be selling the property due to a busy schedule which doesn't allow him to spend much time in New York thus opening up a fantastic investment for its next owner.
