Model, mom and full-time painter Shannan Click is listing her East Village home, which comes with a private 880-square-foot terrace, for $2.9 million.
Click, a former Victoria’s Secret model, is married to House of Gucci, Boardwalk Empire and Hail Mary actor Jack Huston. She bought the midtown Manhattan retreat before her wedding and is selling it because the couple moved with their two children to Los Angeles — where they’re building their dream home in Malibu.
The long-term couple, who began dating in 2011, tied the knot in Las Vegas in 2022, where an Elvis impersonator “wearing bedazzled bells strummed his guitar as the couple kissed,” Page Six reported. They have two children: Sage Lavinia Huston, born in 2013, and Cypress Night, born in 2016.
Huston is fifth generation Hollywood royalty. His Oscar-winning aunt is Anjelica Huston; his grandfather was two-time Oscar-winning director John Huston; his great-grandfather was Oscar winner Walter Huston; and his uncle is actor Danny Huston. His father is Oscar-nominated screenwriter Tony Huston.
Click has modeled for Guess, Tommy Hilfiger, Gap, Levi’s, Dolce & Gabbana, Burberry, Hugo Boss and Elizabeth Arden. She has also walked the runways for Victoria’s Secret, Alexander McQueen and Prada.
Click bought two units in the East Village building, known as Hearth House, and combined and renovated them over a five-year period beginning in the late aughts. She bought the first second-floor unit at 50 Ave. A for $1.25 million in 2007 and a second on the same floor for $865,000 in 2012.
The three-bedroom, 2 1/2-bathroom residence first hit the market for $3.49 million in September. It comes with a monthly fee of $4,078 — all in a seven-story elevator building that’s at least 100 years old.
Click, a Southern California native, told Gimme Shelter that she loves the apartment’s private terrace, which once had a garden full of flowers and a view of a limestone cathedral.
“It was my solace,” said Click, “barbecues and sunbathing and rainy days spent on this terrace gave me the peace that took me away from the busy city. Looking from my bed, through the sunroom, I stared at the church of old and I was dreaming. The bells were ringing at noon. I could have been somewhere in Europe.”
She also loved her “dream spa” bathroom, which comes with a Jacuzzi tub and a steam shower.
Design details inside the apartment include wide-plank hardwood floors, antique mirrored cabinets, built-in closets, plenty of storage, a washer and dryer—and a stone fireplace in the master bedroom. There is also a chef’s kitchen with a wood burning fireplace.
It’s “bittersweet” to let this apartment go, Click said, adding that she’s “coming home to my family.”
Click moved to New York in 2001.
“This is where I grew up, working, modeling and growing up,” Click said. “Before my daughter was born, my husband and I walked from this apartment, 31 blocks, to Langone Hospital before I was induced, hoping that [our daughter] it would come out on its own. There are so many magical, beautiful memories here. But as life goes, I have a new journey and I have a piece of land by the beach where Jack and I are designing and building our dream home.”
