Published: June 11, 2015 | By: American Luxury Staff

Billionaire Carlos Slim has listed his New York townhouse for $80 million. Slim, a Mexican businessman, is asking about twice the price he originally paid for the home in 2010.

The townhouse has over 20,000 square feet of living space with high ceilings, hand-carved wood paneling, a winding staircase, and more. The floors are crafted from limestone and the home is decorated in wrought iron and clad brick.

The home has 25 rooms total, including eight bedrooms, 10 full bathrooms, and as many as 10 half baths. It stands seven stories tall.

Slim bought the townhouse five years ago for $44 million. If the home sells for the asking price it could set a townhouse record in New York City.
