梅麗莎說(shuō),自從瓊死后,這個(gè)女人只看到家里的燈亮了“十幾次”。
Located just steps away from Fifth Avenue, Joan's former home features views of Central Park and the surrounding skyline. The space was designed in the neo-French Classic style and offers four bedrooms, five bathrooms, two terraces, five wood-burning fireplaces and a ballroom.
距離第五大道僅幾步之遙,Joan的故居擁有中央公園和周圍天際線的景色。該空間采用新法國(guó)古典風(fēng)格設(shè)計(jì),設(shè)有四間臥室、五間浴室、兩個(gè)露臺(tái)、五個(gè)燃木壁爐和一間舞廳。
The property served as the late comedian’s home for 28 years before her death, and, according to property records, it sold in 2015 for $24 million, before it was later put back on the market in 2021 for $38 million. The home then received a price cut and was re-listed for $34.5 million in June 2023.
在這位已故喜劇演員去世前,這處房產(chǎn)作為她的家有28年之久,根據(jù)房產(chǎn)記錄,它在2015年以2400萬(wàn)美元的價(jià)格出售,后來(lái)在2021年以3800萬(wàn)美元的價(jià)格重新上市。該房屋隨后降價(jià),并于2023年6月以3450萬(wàn)美元的價(jià)格重新上市。
Earlier this month, the apartment was officially removed from the market after years of trying to find a buyer.
本月早些時(shí)候,經(jīng)過(guò)多年尋找買家的努力,這套公寓被正式從市場(chǎng)上撤下。
Listing agents Dolly Lenz and Jennifer Lenz of Dolly Lenz Real Estate previously confirmed to PEOPLE that while the property had been taken off the market, it can still be purchased by a serious buyer.

When asked if she has any interest in purchasing the home for herself, Melissa candidly tells PEOPLE that she does not see herself living there in the future.
當(dāng)被問(wèn)及她是否有興趣為自己購(gòu)買這座房子時(shí),梅麗莎坦率地告訴《人物》雜志,她不認(rèn)為自己將來(lái)會(huì)住在那里。
"Everyone keeps asking me, am I going to buy it back? I'm like, why would I?" she explains. "It'll never be the same place it was."
“每個(gè)人都在問(wèn)我,我要把它買回來(lái)嗎?我想,我為什么要這么做?”她解釋道。“再也回不到從前了。”
While Joan loved the home dearly, she also admitted that she believed it to be haunted.
雖然瓊非常愛這個(gè)家,但她也承認(rèn),她相信這個(gè)家鬧鬼。
During an episode of Celebrity Ghost Stories in 2009, she revealed she brought in a voodoo priestess to help her deal with a ghost in the house after previously saying she didn't believe in paranormal activity. She said a ghost named Mrs. Spencer, who was a former resident and the late niece of financier J.P Morgan, haunts new residents.
在2009年的一集《名人鬼故事》中,她透露她請(qǐng)了一位巫毒女祭司來(lái)幫助她處理房子里的鬼魂,而之前她說(shuō)她不相信超自然現(xiàn)象。她說(shuō),一位名叫斯賓塞夫人的鬼魂常出沒(méi)于新住戶之中。斯賓塞夫人曾住在這里,是金融家j.p.摩根已故的侄女。
She also noted that neighbors told her they witnessed apparitions throughout the ballroom and grand staircase. On the show, Joan said that she found an old portrait of Mrs. Spencer and hung it in the lobby, causing the haunting to finally stop.
她還指出,鄰居們告訴她,他們?cè)谖鑿d和大樓梯上看到了幽靈。在節(jié)目中,瓊說(shuō)她找到了一幅斯賓塞夫人的舊畫像,并把它掛在了大廳里,終于讓幽靈停止了。
