John Legend and Chrissy Teigen List Not 1, but 2 Penthouse Apartments—How Much Are They Going for?
John Legend and Chrissy Teigen are one of pop culture’s most influential power couples. Legend rose to fame as a singer/songwriter, with tunes like “All of Me” and “Glory” solidifying his status as a talented performer. An EGOT winner who has received critical acclaim, Legend is married to Chrissy Teigen, who is a celebrity in her own right.
While both Legend and Teigen have business ventures individually, they also combine their power when it comes to certain projects. Notably, the couple recently listed a pair of fabulous penthouses in New York City that they had originally planned to combine into one incredible abode.
How much did John Legend and Chrissy Teigen list their penthouse apartments for?
Legend and Teigen have been real estate power players for years now, but 2022 is already shaping up to be a banner year for the wealthy pair. In late January, the two made headlines when they listed two New York-based penthouses that they recently purchased. Located in Manhattan’s Nolita neighborhood, the penthouses were originally purchased by Legend and Teigen with the intent to combine the two apartments into one large home on two floors, according to the Wall Street Journal.
The couple listed the penthouses on the market for $18 million – but buyers will certainly get a lot of value for their money, with a total of 6,164 square feet between the two apartments, as well as an expanse of terrace space to enjoy the great outdoors. As reported by Top Ten Real Estate Deals, Legend noted that it was a tough decision to list the penthouses: “We’ve realized that because of work and everything, we’re really mostly going to be in Los Angeles, so we’re going to focus our home-building energy and renovation energy on what we’re doing in L.A.”
What is John Legend and Chrissy Teigen’s combined net worth?
Legend also revealed that he and Teigen do plan to spend time in New York in the coming months, but that their priorities tend to be in LA. Legend and Teigen certainly have the disposable cash to spend on any lavish accommodation that they wish, with he and Teigen sharing a combined net worth of around $100 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth. The couple has accrued that net worth through their work in the entertainment space, as well as Teigen’s cookware line.
Legend and Teigen share two young children, Luna and Miles, and also have a host of pets. While there’s no doubt that Legend and Teigen would have been able to make a fabulous home out of the two New York penthouses, they are currently based in a luxurious house in LA.
Where are John Legend and Chrissy Teigen currently living?
In September 2020, Legend and Teigen dropped a bundle on a brand-new home in Beverly Hills. The couple, according to Realtor, paid about $17.5 million for the home, which features 10,700 square feet of indoor-outdoor living space. It has a dual-island kitchen (perfect for Teigen’s culinary experimentation), seven bedrooms, 11 bathrooms, including quarters for staff, and dual garage parking. Additionally, there’s plenty of space outside for the couple’s kids to run around, with a saltwater infinity pool and a pool house with a sunken fire pit.
For now, it seems as though Legend and Teigen are spending most of their time at their California home. Still, with the couple planning on visiting New York for various business ventures in the new year, it seems likely that they will make real estate news again in the months to come.
