Finding a decent apartment to rent in New York City can sometimes seem next to impossible. But if you're looking to live like Jessica Chastain — and can afford to do so — well, your search just got a little bit easier.
The Martian actress recently put her two bedroom, two bathroom duplex on Mercer Street in Greenwich Village up for either rent, at $7,995 per month with furniture included, or sale, at an asking price of $1,795,000. According to The Real Deal, Chastain purchased the 1,284-square-foot duplex back in 2012 for $1.2 million. The newly renovated, pre-war apartment is in a full-service luxury co-op building and features 10-foot ceilings, a wood-burning fireplace, and open city views from the second-floor master bedroom. Also included? The kind of massive walk-in cedar closet that real estate dreams are made of.

The wood-burning fireplace, a true luxury in NYC, anchors the living room. Indoor s'mores, anyone?

The open kitchen features a center island, granite countertops, and top-of-the-line appliances by Sub-Zero and Thermador, as well as a Miele washer and dryer. Living like Jessica Chastain means never having to go to the laundromat again.
