Andy Cohen is on the move, but he isn’t going far. The Bravo TV personality is headed to a new location in the West Village neighborhood where he already lives. He reportedly plopped down $18.3 million for a prewar duplex penthouse, that needs quite a bit of renovation. Housed in a 1930-built structure, Cohen’s new home has 3,000 square feet with two bedrooms and two-and-a-half bathrooms, which doesn’t seem like enough space for the family of three, including son Benjamin, 3, and three-month-old daughter, Lucy.
Dirt is speculating that Cohen might be interested in buying the apartment below, which used to be connected to the penthouse via spiral staircase. That additional square footage might be helpful for the growing family to spread out a bit more. Page Six is also noting that the Watch What Happens Live host is already making plans to rehab the property. “Andy looked at everything in the area before choosing the penthouse,” a source told the media outlet. “He loves the neighborhood. But the penthouse needs a lot of work.”
There are still good bones to the structure with a gorgeous solarium for year-round usage, spectacular views from every angle, and tons of natural light streaming into the residence. Cohen is probably excited to put in the work to make this a dream home for his kids, especially since it offers a wonderful oasis high above the city. Don’t miss the cozy office in the home — and be sure to check out more photos at Dirt.
Towering Over the West Village
At the top of the 17-story building is Andy Cohen’s new home — the lush outdoor landscaping gives it away.
Needs a Little TLC
The kitchen isn’t stacked with high-tech appliances yet — we wouldn’t be surprised if the Bravo TV star does some major renovations to the is room.
High Ceilings & Natural Light
The living room shows just how much sunlight pours into the home, which is a lovely feature given how dark some Manhattan apartments can be.
Formal Dining Room
The penthouse is so spacious, it even offers a formal dining room so Cohen can have New York pals Anderson Cooper and Kelly Ripa over for dinner.
A Studious Office
We love a room with built-in bookcases and a cozy vibe. Cohen could use this room as his own office or a place for his kids to study when they are older.
A Rare Solarium
This is a room rarely seen in Manhattan homes: a solarium. It’s the ideal space to enjoy the city views even during those cold winter days.
A Garden in the City
The 2,000 square feet of space allows for the lush greenery to be a standout feature on the wraparound terrace.
Nooks & Crannies
The terrace gives plenty of different seating options for dining and conversing when guests are over.
Downtown Views
The southern corner of the penthouse showcases other architectural marvels in Manhattan, including One World Trade Center.
Quite the View
There isn’t a bad view in the penthouse — Cohen can enjoy the Hudson River landscape if he ever tires of looking at One World Trade Center.
