Real-estate mogul Barbara Corcoran sold her Fifth Avenue penthouse in just one day in May \u2014 and it appears her next-door neighbor took note of the success.<\/p>\n
An 11-room penthouse alongside Corcoran\u2019s former pad listed for $11.5 million this week, according to a StreetEasy listing update. <\/p>\n
This isn\u2019t the first time the rare Fifth Avenue duplex has attempted to sell, but if Corcoran\u2019s recent deal is anything to go by, it might not be on the market for long.<\/p>\n

The fresh listing comes less than four months after the home\u2019s high-profile neighbor listed and sold her similarly well-appointed home in less than 24 hours<\/a>. <\/p>\n Corcoran, founder of the Corcoran Group, purchased the duplex next-door for $10 million in 2015, according to city records. She undertook extensive renovations of the 4,600-square-foot aerie, including flipping the floor plan, installing a chef\u2019s kitchen and transforming her terrace greenhouse into a dining area.<\/p>\n
