Singer Carly Simon is selling her New York apartment and moving full-time to Massachusetts.The You're So Vain star is listing her co-op in Manhattan's star-studded West Village for $3.8 million (£1.9 million).The two-bedroom, two-bathroom duplex is being sold by Simon's own sister, Joanna - an opera singer who also holds a post as Vice-President and broker at Fox Residential Group. Simon purchased the pad after failing to land an apartment in New York's Dakota - the landmark building where former Beatle John Lennon was shot and widow Yoko Ono continues to reside.A source has revealed that: "Carly has used her unique style and taste to create a romantic and intimate home. She's selling mainly because she lives nearly full-time in Martha's Vineyard these days."
