Milla Jovovich Patiently Awaits a Buyer in the Village

138041It's been 10 months since model-turned-designer Milla Jovovich first put her townhouse at 100 Greenwich Avenue on the market for $8.75 million. Since then, the four-story spread—which Jovovich picked up via a trust for $6.375 million back in 2006—has undergone two prices cuts and was even taken off the market briefly at the end of 2008. The four-bedroom home—which features heated stone floors, five fireplaces, solarium, roof terrace, and a master suite that encompasses an entire floor and includes a sitting/dressing room and "walk-in closets behind mirrored French doors"—is now priced at $7 million.
