A Manhattan apartment where Barbra Streisand and Lauren Bacall filmed romantic comedy "The Mirror Has Two Faces" is selling for $2.895 million.
The three-bedroom unit in a Beaux-Arts-style cooperative on West End Avenue on the Upper West Side was the fictional home of Columbia University professor Rose (played by Ms. Streisand) and her overbearing mother (Bacall) in the 1996 movie, according to the listing agents and website IMDB. The home hit the market on Thursday.

In a famous scene at the end of the film, Ms. Streisand’s character and her romantic interest, played by Jeff Bridges, waltz in front of the 14-story cooperative.
"Like that, there are two faces to this apartment because when the current owners bought it a few years ago, it didn’t look like this," said Compass agent Brian K. Lewis in a video marketing the home.
"It was a wreck," he said.
The sellers spent a year taking the apartment down to the studs and rebuilt the interiors, which now include new herringbone oak floors, copper plumbing, new electric work and Italian marble in the bathrooms and fully remodeled kitchen, according to the listing.
A bonus feature that might be overlooked is a balustrade, or decorative outdoor ledge, outside the kitchen window, which can be used as an herb garden, Mr. Lewis said.

"It’s just a little something to open your window and have that," he said in the promotional video. Mr. Lewis did not immediately return request for comment on this story.
The unit last sold for $1.49 million in 2010, according to property records. It comes with walk-in closets and an in-unit washer and dryer.
For added bragging rights: The apartment building was also home to acclaimed composer Sergei Rachmaninoff, who lived and wrote music from the building for the last 23 years of his life.
