Daniel Craig & Rachel Weisz buy $11.5M home

Daniel Craig and Rachel Weisz are splashing out $11.5 million on a new home.

The couple who married in a surprise ceremony last June are set to buy a three-bedroom, three-bathroom apartment in New York’s SoHo district.

The 4,350 square foot property boasts an additional 2,000 square feet of outdoor space  including a private roof garden with its own kitchen and facilities including a media room with a woodburning fireplace, the New York Post newspaper reports.

Meanwhile, city records show that Rachel has just sold her old house in the city with the buyer being her former partner, director Darren Aronofsky.

The Wrestler filmmaker who has a five-year-old son, Henry, with Rachel paid $2.52 million for the five-storey townhouse.

The sum is considerably less than the $3.4 million the former couple paid for the 11.5 room property in 2005 and the house is said to be worth an estimated 3-4 times more than what Darren has just paid.

Though it is unclear how many bedrooms the house has, it also boasts a terrace off three second-floor kitchen, a double parlor, and a garden.
