A Manhattan townhouse abutting the so-called mega-mansion of actress Sarah Jessica Parker and her husband, actor Matthew Broderick, will hit the market Friday for $34.5 million, Mansion Global has learned.

The townhouse on West 11th Street is about 26-feet wide and 112-feet deep, offering 8,000 square feet of living space and one of the deepest gardens in the neighborhood, according to Dolly Lenz, chief executive of the eponymous brokerage Dolly Lenz Real Estate, which has the listing.

Featuring seven bedrooms and seven bathrooms, it has enough space to add a large pool and spa, according to Ms. Lenz.

The two attached townhouses right next door, which the celebrity couple reportedly paid $35 million in 2016, are in the process of being combined into a 13,900-square-foot mega-mansion.

The owner of the townhouse is listed in public records as Alicia CastroLeal Harper, whose father Antonio Castro Leal was a prominent Mexican diplomat and once served as an Ambassador to France. Her ex-husband, Alan Harper, a TV producer who passed away in 1991, purchased the townhouse more than 40 years ago, per city records.

She couldn’t immediately be reached for comment.

Previously, it was owned by Robert J. O'Donnell, property records show, a theater owner and philanthropist who was credited as giving Bob Hope his "big break into show business" in Hope’s autobiography "Have Tux, Will Travel."

Built in 1884, the townhouse is located within the boundaries of the Greenwich Village Historic District.
