David Duchovny Apt Realtor.Com 2
X Files star David Duchovny is selling his Upper West Side Manhattan apartment for $7.5 million.
According to Realtor.Com, the Co-Op apartment is on the 19th floor of the Ardsley Building located at 15 Central Park West. It comes with a private elevator landing and opens to a wide gallery entry with a large round mirror, bench, and storage. The dark wood herringbone flooring flows throughout, and leads to a living room that overlooks Central Park. Highlights of the living space include a wood-burning fireplace and built-in bookshelves. The apartment has three bedrooms and a small terrace with a view of the park.
The New York Post reports that David Duchovny paid $6 million for the apartment in 2012. So the sale price comes to only a 25% return on investment over nine years. Not so much, especially considering that this is a luxury Manhattan apartment in a desirable location.
