The Littlest Landlords

The Olsen Twins are renting out their famed Morton Square dormplex for $35,000 a month.

Last summer, the city was buzzing about incoming freshmen Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen's big move to Manhattan. The just-turned-18-year-old actresses purchased four penthouses for $7.3 million, creating a luxurious 5,725-square-foot spread in the West Village. Despite a flurry of Starbucks sightings, the "dumpster dressing" sisters never moved in.

Since March, their West Village penthouse has been listed for $9.495 million with Charlotte Van Doren at Stribling and Associates. It hadn't sold, and just yesterday was re-listed as a rental--which, according to Stribling's Web site, it has just gone to contract. No word on who snapped it up yet.

Ms. Van Doren declined to comment. The Real Estate contacted representatives for Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, and is waiting for a comment.
