In 2012, Sir Patrick Stewart’s connection to Brooklyn was one of the most celebrated chapters of his life in New York. Following his death at age 86, public records revealed that the ‘Star Trek’ and ‘X-Men’ legend had quietly sold his long-time Park Slope duplex home in July 2025, roughly a year before his passing. The actor had settled his roots in Brooklyn to keep away from the Hollywood glamour and had taken residence in the brownstone-lined neighborhood.
In 2012, Patrick Stewart bought a Brooklyn carriage-house duplex
A converted carriage house located on Seventh Street, Stewart’s now-former home featured approximately 2,176 square feet of living space, had an open floor plan, and allowed for ample amounts of light and fresh air for its residents. Realtor.com posted that, along with this, some of the other extraordinary features and amenities that are a part of Stewart’s home are a private elevator, a fireplace, and a sprawling rooftop terrace, according to the original listing.While talking about Brooklyn and living there, the actor had praised the people for being kind and helpful. He also told the New York Daily News, “It reminds me very much of the Northern Yorkshire town I grew up in. The kindness of people, the care they take of each other, and their sense of humor. There’s so much generosity, so much respect for privacy.”He further shared an incident about how people simply passed him by rather than interacting with him or having an ‘X-Men’ moment. Stewart added, “We were walking down her block, and I saw two old guys sitting on a stoop. I saw them look up when they saw my face, and I thought, ‘Oh Lord, I don’t want to have a Star Trek encounter this morning or X-Men,’ but as I drew level with them, one of the guys said, ‘Hey Mr. Stewart, welcome to the neighborhood.‘ Enjoy.’ And that was it. I thought, ‘I love this place, and I love the people.’ And that’s how it’s continued.”Stewart had moved to the neighborhood around the same time that he met his wife, singer-songwriter Sunny Ozell. The two got married in 2013, with Sir Ian McKellen officiating the wedding ceremony.
