Britney Spears has unloaded her Manhattan condo after it was on the market for more than two years – since before her marriage to Kevin Federline and the birth of their son, Sean Preston.

The 4,400-sq.-ft. apartment fetched $4 million, reports the Wall Street Journal – noting that the price is $1 million more than the pop princess paid for it four years ago, but $2 million less than her original asking price.

As recently as last May, the three bedroom, four-and-a-half bathroom, four-floor apartment (which also has a media room, library and terrace), had been priced at $4.55 million as, the New York Observer reported at the time and confirmed with Spears's real-estate broker.

Previous owners were Rolling Stone Keith Richards and hip-hop mogul Russell Simmons, while Cher was once also a neighbor.

Chris Toland of the Corcoran Group, who represented the buyers, told the Journal that his clients – whom he would not name – are from Los Angeles and are "not celebrities."
