Ellie Kemper’s Central Park-View Apartment in N.Y.C. Is Up for Grabs at $7.5 Million

After first hoisting her New York City apartment on the market in early March for just under $8 million, Ellie Kemper has now lowered the price of her Manhattan digs on Central Park West. The actress and comedian, best known for her roles on The Office and Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, is asking a discounted $7.5 million for the combined two-unit spread. Unfortunately for her and her comedian and TV writer/producer husband Michael Koman, that’s $300,000 less than the $7.8 million they paid in late 2021.

Found on the fourth floor of The Ardsley, a 22-story Art Deco apartment house built and designed in the early 1930s by Emery Roth, the four-bedroom, seven-bath residence offers 60 feet of Central Park frontage. Pre-war details throughout its 3,750 square feet include herringbone-patterned wood floors, beamed ceilings, and large casement windows.

A private elevator opens to a landing that flows to a duo of foyers leading to separate wings. The park-facing side includes a fireside living room with custom bookshelves and an adjacent library, plus a pair of sizable primary suite-eligible bedrooms outfitted with walk-in closets and updated baths.

Other highlights include a dining room and a windowed eat-in kitchen sporting a multi-hued glass tile backsplash, a Wolf range, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, a Miele dishwasher, and a nearby nook holding another fridge and washer and dryer. Two additional bedrooms each have their own baths, as does a small office off the kitchen, while a TV room/den sits next to a wine room that can accommodate up to 1,000 bottles.

The unit’s $7,709 in monthly maintenance fees allow access to on-site services and amenities like a 24-hour doorman and concierge, a fitness center, a children’s playroom, a library, and even a dog bath.

The listing is shared by Ann Cutbill Lenane and Gregory Williamson of Douglas Elliman.

Kemper sold a similarly updated but slightly smaller pre-war apartment in the same Upper West Side neighborhood nearly three years ago for $3.3 million, according to the New York Post. A two-time Emmy nominee for her lead role in Netflix’s Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, the actress has also appeared in The Office, as well as the films Bridesmaids, 21 Jump Street, Home Sweet Home Alone, and Happiness for Beginners. Most recently, she was tapped as “Kohl’s Mom” for the department store’s new marketing campaign.
