Actress Emmy Rossum, 39, has realized a lifelong dream of owning a spacious New York City apartment, a vision she held since childhood. Growing up in a modest one-bedroom on Manhattan's Upper East Side, Rossum often admired larger residences in her neighborhood.
In 2018, Rossum and her husband, Sam Esmail, acquired a substantial 4,400-square-foot, five-bedroom apartment in the same area. This purchase marked a significant milestone, allowing her to recreate cherished childhood memories with her own children.
The couple embarked on an extensive gut renovation that lasted two years and five months. They moved into their newly renovated home approximately one month before welcoming their first child in 2021. Their family grew with the arrival of their second child in 2023.
