Actress and comedian Ellie Kemper, renowned for her roles in popular shows such as The Office
and Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, is making headlines as she adjusts the market price of her
Central Park West apartment. Initially listed for nearly $8 million in early March, Kemper and her
husband, Michael Koman, have now set a new asking price of $7.5 million for their dual-unit residence
in Manhattan.

This current listing reflects a decrease from the $7.8 million they paid for the property in late 2021,
marking a pricing strategy shift as they seek prospective buyers.

About the Residence

Located on the fourth floor of The Ardsley, a striking Art Deco building designed by Emery Roth in the
1930s, this expansive home spans approximately 3,750 square feet. It features four bedrooms and seven
bathrooms, complemented by 60 feet of frontage along the scenic views of Central Park.

Details such as herringbone-patterned wooden floors, high beamed ceilings, and large casement windows
underscore the property’s vintage appeal.

Luxurious Accommodations

Upon entry, a private elevator opens into a landing that leads to two distinct foyers serving separate
wings of the apartment. The park-facing side includes:

• A spacious living room with a fireplace and custom bookshelves.
• An adjacent library offering refined space for reading and relaxation.
• Two well-appointed bedrooms eligible for a primary suite, each equipped with walk-in closets and
  modern bathrooms.
• A dining room complemented by a windowed eat-in kitchen that showcases a multi-hued glass tile
  backsplash.

The kitchen is outfitted with high-end appliances, including a Wolf range, Sub-Zero refrigerator, and
Miele dishwasher. Additional features comprise two other bedrooms with en suite baths, a small office,
a den or TV room, and a wine room that can accommodate up to 1,000 bottles.

Building Amenities and Financial Details

The apartment comes with a monthly maintenance fee of $7,709, granting access to amenities such as:

• 24-hour doorman and concierge services.
• A fitness center for wellness activities.
• A children’s playroom and library.
• A dog bathing station for pet owners.

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

Kemper’s Real Estate Journey

This listing adds to Kemper’s real estate portfolio, as she previously sold a similarly updated
pre-war apartment in the same Upper West Side neighborhood for $3.3 million approximately three years
ago. While her career includes notable performances in movies such as Bridesmaids, 21
Jump Street, and Home Sweet Home Alone, Kemper continues to gain recognition as
the face of a recent marketing campaign for Kohl’s.
