Harvey Weinstein’s former West Village home has been gutted — with no trace of the disgraced movie man left, Page Six can reveal.
Weinstein was forced to sell the Bank Street home he shared with ex-wife Georgina Chapman after being accused of sexual misconduct.
The property — originally purchased by Weinstein in 2006 for $14.95 million — sold for $25.6 million in March to an anonymous buyer.
The home was bought by an LLC called Cheget — and a $20 million mortgage agreement for the property was signed by Oaktree Capital Management co-founder Bruce Karsh.
Now, the stunning home has been torn apart by builders who are preparing it for the new owner.
Our photos show that it has been taken down to the studs during its renovation, while the outside is completely boarded up, with windows sealed.
An onlooker said: “I walked by and just thought that all traces of Harvey are being wiped away. It’s as if he was never there.”
The house is opposite celeb eatery the Waverly Inn and hosted Hillary Clinton 2016 fundraiser for guests including Leo DiCaprio, Jennifer Lopez and Sarah Jessica Parker.

Amid scandal, Weinstein’s unloaded what’s believed to be nearly $53 million worth of property.
Meanwhile, Chapman’s living upstate and doing “really well,” according to pals.
We revealed in May that she was closing on a home in leafy Westchester County.
She’s also back on the social scene and happily out with friends: Earlier this month, she met up for dinner with Huma Abedin, whose husband, Anthony Weiner, is in prison for his sexting scandal.
The pair enjoyed a meal at Tamarind, a block from the former offices of the Weinstein Company.
This week, Cindy Crawford was the latest star to wear Chapman’s Marchesa line on the red carpet, at the British Fashion Awards.
The line’s been making a comeback with stars including Scarlett Johansson and Rita Ora after the Weinstein scandal.
A rep for Oaktree didn’t get back to us.
