Musician Moby has made a loss on his luxury woodland home in New York, after he saying he would give away profits from the sale to back progressive candidates.
The DJ, whose real name is Richard Melville Hall, bought the 'quintessential country getaway' in Pound Ridge, Westchester County, last year but admitted he was 'rarely there' and put it on the market.
According to a property website the mid-century modern home changed hands in mid-December for some $140,000 less than the $1.24million which Moby paid for it in March 2018.
Country getaway: Moby's former two-bedroom home in Pound Ridge, New York, which he sold last month for $1.1million
Woodland luxury: The home in Pound Ridge is described as having 'seamless mahogany paneling and ceilings'
Perfect view: The well-lit home has a view over the woodland area in Westchester County, north of New York City
Indoor decorations: A sofa, table, chair and fireplace in one of the rooms of the home which musician Moby put on the market
The website indicated he had cut the asking price by $200,000 from the initial $1.3million last August as he sought to attract a buyer.
Announcing his decision to sell it last summer, he wrote on Instagram: 'OK, this might seem odd..I have a beautiful house in Pound Ridge, NY.
'It was designed in 1957 by David Henken, an architect who worked closely with Frank Lloyd Wright. It's one of the most beautiful mcm [mid-century modern] houses I've seen, but to be honest, I'm rarely there.
'So, I'm going to sell it and take the money to: support progressive political candidates, support my animal rights foundation, produce documentaries, and fund scholarships.'
A real estate listing describes the property as a 'quintessential country getaway', saying: 'The residence, spectacularly nestled in its private setting, overlooks scenic gardens, pool and woodlands.
'With 3162 square feet of living space, the structure houses eight main rooms on two levels. Interior spaces are stunning.

'Rooms are perfectly proportioned and positioned to capture light and views. With a soothing urbane aesthetic, natural materials were incorporated into the design.
'Slate and wood floors, seamless mahogany paneling and ceilings, mitered glass windows and three fireplaces add architectural interest.'
The 53-year-old musician shot to fame in 1999 with his album Play and has gone on to be nominated for Grammy awards.
Moby is a prominent animal rights activist and in 2015 opened a vegan bistro in Los Angeles which gives away its profits to allied organizations.
He frequently posts criticism of Donald Trump on his Instagram account, yesterday calling on the President to end the federal government shutdown.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
