Documentary film legend Errol Morris lists Brooklyn home

Documentary film directory Errol Morris, whose film “The Thin Blue Line” freed an innocent man accused of murder, is listing his Brooklyn Heights co-op.

Morris and his wife, poet Julia Sheehan, bought the three-bedroom apartment at 22 Pierrepont Street in 2014, and are now listing the place for $1.95 million, according to Curbed. The listing price is close to the original purchase price.

It features a wood-burning fireplace with an original mantle, stained-glass transom windows and a private garden.

The listing claims that the apartment was “once owned by an important artist.” That could either be Morris or Nobel Prize-winner and former Poet Laureate Joseph Brodsky, who once called the apartment home. [Curbed] –Christopher Cameron
