FICTIONAL FLOORPLAN OF THE WEEK: JERRY’S APARTMENT FROM SEINFELD
We know better than anyone that New Yorkers LOVE floorplans. We treat them like a work of art. For all the floorplan lovers out there, now available on the website Etsy are dozens of prints of the most famous fictional homes of television all created true to form by artist Iñaki Aliste Lizarralde.
Upon viewing these, it gave us a great idea Let’s dissect one fictional TV floorplan at a time and ask some of our local expert agents in that area how much that unit would sell for today if it was on the actual market.
What better home to start with than Jerry’s Upper West Side 1 bedroom on 81st Street from the hit New York City based comedy, Seinfeld. Let’s say George, Elaine, and Kramer convinced Jerry to sell today due to the low inventory and a heavy demand for the Upper West Side, he would have quite a few ‘anti-dentites’ and re-gifters lining up to buy.
Here is what two of our West Side Experts had to say:
Jill Sloane, Executive Vice President
“In real life this is a rental building. Based on the location, size, condition and the low inventory of today’s market I would price this apt. at $699,000. It would most likely have a bidding war based on those factors and that comedian Jerry Seinfeld lived there."
Mark D. Friedman, Executive Vice President
"It is an Elevator building and Bedroom is small. It would of course also be determined by the maintenance and financials of building. If it was decent I would say $649,000-$725,000.”
There you have it, so if we lived in Bizarro Jerry World, the stand-up comic on the show should make out quite all right with around a $700,000 pay day.
