‘Moonstruck’ Townhouse Up for Sale in Brooklyn Heights


Once you see the price tag you'll likely "Snap out of it!"

Want to buy a prominent piece of Italian American film history? Well, you may be dumbstruck by the price.

The 1829 Brooklyn Heights townhouse prominently featured in 1987’s “Moonstruck” is now on the market for a cool $12.85 million.

The “30-window, light-filled, 4-story, 5+ bedroom, 3.5 bath townhouse has been impeccably renovated with restored original charm and exquisite attention to detail, resulting in comfortable and stately opulence,” according to the listing.

The Castorini family home at 19 Cranberry St. was last sold for the relatively modest price of $4 million in 2008 by architect and neighborhood historical leader Edward Rullman and his wife Francesca.

And many film buffs will quickly realize only the exterior of the home was used in the movie, as the interior shots were filmed elsewhere.
