    This New York power couple has sold their home — and for quite a profit, no less.

    Jeffrey Levine, an enormously influential New York developer, and his wife, Randi Charno Levine — currently the US ambassador to Portugal — have parted ways with their Greenwich Village townhouse for $22 million. The sale appears to have taken place off-market, meaning no listing images or description are available.

    The news was first reported by Crain’s .

    The pair purchased the three-story 81 Barrow St. property for $12.7 million back in 2010.

    Levine is widely credited with shaping the landscape of both Hudson Yards and Williamsburg’s waterfront through Douglaston Development, the real estate company he founded and is chairman of.

    The prolific firm has developed neighborhood-changing behemoths including, Williamsburg’s the Edge, a looming two-building behemoth on North 6th and 7th streets, as well as the over 700-unit 3Eleven, an amenity-filled rental building on the border of Hudson Yards and West Chelsea.

    Earlier this summer, Douglaston made headlines for its purchase of a 90-unit Upper East Side rental building at 1450 Third Ave.

    The firm paid the property’s longtime owner, Marjorie Nesbitt, $114.5 million for the property, the Real Deal reported at the time.

    The couple’s just-sold Greenwich Village townhouse was built in the early 1850s by James Vandenbergh, who among other credits was the master mason in the construction of Trinity Church. The historic brick residence is built in the Italianate style and has period details including a paneled roof cornice, ironwork and a rusticated basement.

    A plaque from the Bedford Barrow Commerce Block Association on its facade, which appears to have been removed, once declared its origin, stating that “this house is the lone survivor of a row of three built on Trinity Church Land,” according to the historical marker database, HMdb.org .
