Dunham initially listed her three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bathroom apartment in Brooklyn’s Williamsburg neighborhood with Terry Naini of Brown Harris Stevens for $3 million in November, but didn’t find a buyer. Now, it’snewly listed with Compass’s Erez Rosewith a $350,000 price cut, asking $2.65 million. Rose declined to comment.
Perched on the top floor of doorman building, it offers oversized windows with views of Manhattan, Brooklyn and the East River and a roof deck.
Although Dunham is frequently associated with her quirky character Hannah Horvath onGirls, who is a Brooklynite, the apartment Dunham is leaving behind is nothing like Horvath’s cozy two bedroom abode in the neighborhood of Greenpoint.
The light-filled space boasts a chef’s kitchen, fireplace and washer and dryer in unit.
In themaster bedroom, there is a raised platform for a bed “so you can wake up to views of the water,” according to the listing, and the space is outfitted with a walk-in-closet.
Dunham told The Cut, “A lot of the stuff that happened last year couldn’t have happened if I was happy in my life, right? It was almost like I was throwing a match, burning it down.”
Thankfully, her enviable apartment is intact and up for grabs.
