Scarlett Johansson finally offloads NYC penthouse

Nearly two years after first listing it, Scarlett Johansson has finally sold her Manhattan penthouse - with nowhere near the profit she was first hoping for.

The 38-year-old actress bought the two-bedroom, two-bathroom penthouse in 2008 for $2.8 million ($USD 2.1 million), as reported by The Post.

After listing it in July of 2020 for $3.33 million ($USD 2.5 million), Johansson was forced to slash the price in December by around $830,000, before finally selling it for $2.5 million ($USD 1.87 million).

Despite the $300,000 loss, the Black Widow is unlikely to feel the pinch considering she has a net worth of $219.9 ($USD 165 million).

The home, which overlooks the East River and boasts skyline views and room for al fresco dining, was also listed for rent while Johansson was looking for a buyer for a hefty $8650 ($US 6,500) a month.

Its other features include hardwood floors, floor-to-ceiling windows, an open kitchen with marble countertops and an expansive walk-in-wardrobe in the master suite.

The new owners will also get to enjoy the amenities that come from being in an apartment building, including a full-time doorman, an additional laundry room, and a parking garage.
