After listing her Old Westbury, NY, home last summer, award-winning performer Ashanti Douglas has finally found a buyer.

The R&B singer and New York native initially put the place on the market for $2,198,000 in July 2022. After a year with no takers, the listing sold for $1,950,000—the same price she paid for the house in 2003, during the height of her fame.

The six-bedroom, six-bath residence was built in 1999 and sits at the end of a cul-de-sac. Situated on 2 acres, the brick Colonial boasts spacious rooms, cathedral ceilings, and beautifully landscaped lawns.

Lovely interiors

The 5,345-square-foot abode is filled with dramatic details—a sweeping staircase and sparkling chandelier in the foyer and patterned-tile flooring in the entryway, among other attractive flourishes.

In the living room, there’s a marble fireplace and a wall of windows that overlook the garden. Nearby, French doors open to the patio—an ideal spot for morning coffee or sunset cocktails.

The second-floor primary suite includes a spa-inspired bathroom, and additional bedrooms await nearby.

There’s also a pool, three-car garage, office, and motor court. Plus, the place is conveniently located just 25 miles from Manhattan.

Ashanti, 42, might be best known for her early-2000s hits, including “Foolish,” Baby,” and “Happy.” Beyond music, she starred in movies such as “Coach Carter” and “John Tucker Must Die.” She is also co-owner of EQ Exchange, a tech company.
