Scottish actor, author, and activist Alan Cumming’s gorgeous, pre-war East Village home has been listed for $2,200,000 by Douglas Elliman’s Noble Black and Jennifer Stillman. After 11 years in this charmingly historic 4-bedroom co-op, Cumming and husband Grant Shaffer have decided to move on from their apartment-turned-labor of love that they made theirs with seamlessly integrated renovations.
Flooding with light and featuring elegant details throughout, the apartment faces Tompkins Square Park and flows from the inviting foyer to the expansive living and dining area to the adjoining kitchen complete with stainless steel counters and appliances. The whole space as a delightful, sunny ambiance about it. Cumming, who stars on “The Good Wife” and has made numerous appearances on Broadway, decided to list with Black, one of Manhattan’s leading real estate agents.
“It's an amazingly charming home,” says Black. “You can hear birds chirping, there are green leafy views from every window including over Tompkins Square Park, beautiful prewar details, a gorgeous wood-burning fireplace and a layout that’s perfect for entertaining. It's a truly special apartment.”
“We've spent 11 happy years in this apartment. We fell in love with the views of the park, the light flooding in, the airiness of the living rooms, and the trees and the quiet in the bedroom at the back,” says Cumming. “We love the East Village with all its eccentricity and history, and the friendliness of our neighbors. It's time to move on but we'll be living a mere block away – that's how much we love the hood!”
Cumming and Shaffer will be relocating to another property in the East Village that they have been renovating since purchasing it in 2013.
