A New York City townhome featured in "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit" and "Law & Order" has hit the market for the first time in 40 years.
The 1899 townhouse has been listed for $6.9 million by Corcoran agents Mark David Fromm and Claudia Saez-Fromm.
"The ‘Law & Order’ producers were walking by the house randomly and knocked on the door to inquire about shooting," according to the current homeowners.
"They have shot four episodes at the townhouse, and it was featured as Judge Clarence Thomas' house in one of them."

"The producers love how each room is so unique from a visual standpoint, much like a TV/movie set, and they could shoot multiple scenes in all of the different spaces without changing location.
"I have maintained a friendly relationship with the producers and have their contact information."
The house appears in "Law & Order" season 5, episode 8, "Virtue" and season 22, episode 17 "Bias." The townhome also appears in "Law & Order: SVU" season 5, episode 24, "Poison" and season 8, episode 18, "Responsible."
