Actor Erich Bergen, known for his roles in the TV series 'Love Story' and 'Madam Secretary', is preparing to list his Harlem penthouse for $995,000. The two-bedroom, two-bath residence sits atop a boutique condominium and spans roughly 1,060 square feet, featuring contemporary finishes and 'environmentally conscious design'.

Why it matters

Bergen's penthouse listing is noteworthy as the actor has been drawing attention for his role as Anthony Radziwill in the FX series 'Love Story', which revisits the romance between John F. Kennedy Jr. and Carolyn Bessette. The sale of his Harlem home also comes as Bergen has been renting a new place in the city while traveling for work.

The details

The east-facing home mixes contemporary finishes with 'environmentally conscious design', according to the listing. The kitchen is fitted with Viking and Liebherr appliances, sleek lacquer cabinetry accented with LED lighting and a Caesarstone breakfast counter. Wide-plank white oak flooring runs throughout the apartment. The primary bedroom overlooks the building's landscaped courtyard, offering a quieter retreat from the street below. Bathrooms are designed with spa-inspired touches, including porcelain finishes and a Kohler soaking tub.

What they’re saying

“They called me at first to audition for JFK Jr. Most of the time when Ryan Murphy wants me to audition for something, I'm saying yes no matter what it is. But in this particular case, I was like, 'Yeah, I'm not your JFK.'”

— Erich Bergen, Actor

“There's just not enough sit-ups in the world that I can do to get to the body that I need to have for JFK.”

— Erich Bergen, Actor

“When I first told my cancer story … my whole point was that I wanted to use the information I had to share it with others so that guys would go to doctors. Checking for this stuff early is the way to save your life.”

— Erich Bergen, Actor

The takeaway

Bergen's decision to take on the role of Anthony Radziwill in 'Love Story' rather than JFK Jr. highlights his versatility as an actor, and his personal experience with cancer has allowed him to use the role to continue raising awareness about the importance of early detection.
