  • The Rolling Stone guitarist, 72, and his wife bought the Greenwich Village apartment for $10.5million two years ago 
  • Their main residence is a custom-build home in Weston, Connecticut  

Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards and his wife Patti Hansen are selling their New York City apartment, just two years after purchasing the home.

Sotheby's is listing the two-story penthouse in Greenwich Village for $12.23million, meaning the couple is set to make a pretty penny after snapping up the apartment for just $10.5million, according to property website StreetEasy.

The four-bedroom, four-bathroom abode features dark wood floors contrasted by a stark white design throughout the apartment. 

The apartment underwent a remodel in 2011, combining three apartments into one 2,700-square-foot unit that offers sweeping views of the city from three separate terraces.
