Amy Schumer has slashed the price of her Brooklyn townhouse

After being on the market for three months, comedian and actress Amy Schumer has lowered the asking price on her historic townhouse in Brooklyn Heights by $1.25 million, now listing the property for $12.75 million, as updated on StreetEasy.

This price reduction from the initial $14 million is due to Schumer and her husband, chef Chris Fischer, planning to relocate back to Manhattan. This decision is influenced by the logistical difficulties associated with their son’s new school.

“He got into a good school and we’re too lazy to commute 45 minutes to take our son to school every day,” Schumer explained to the Wall Street Journal when the home was originally put on the market.

The couple purchased the Federal-style townhouse in 2022 for $12.25 million, property records show. 

Built circa 1829, the roughly 5,600-square-foot property gained cultural cachet as the exterior of the Castorini family home in the 1987 film “Moonstruck,” starring Cher and Nicolas Cage.

“We loved what we moved into,” said Schumer, who grew up in New York. “But we’ve definitely made it our own.”

The couple hired landscape architect Michael Van Valkenburgh — whose credits include Brooklyn Bridge Park — to overhaul the backyard. A brick patio was replaced with turf, and play equipment was added for their 5-year-old son, Gene. 

“Not that it’s a ton” of space, Schumer previously told the Journal. “You know, it is Brooklyn.”

The multi-story home features five bedrooms, four bathrooms, a gym and a wine cellar — space that Schumer said exceeds the needs of her small family. 

“This is a home that is just ready for more people,” she said.

Despite her excitement to return to Manhattan, Schumer admitted she’ll miss her Brooklyn neighborhood. 

“This neighborhood has just been a dream to live here, and I feel very sad to leave.”

On the day the property hit the market in the spring, Schumer, 43, posted a tongue-in-cheek message to her Instagram followers: “Best hood ever,” she wrote, adding, “14m sorry baby!”— a nod to the home’s original asking price.

It is unclear if Schumer, whose reps did not immediately return The Post’s request for comment, has made the move back to Manhattan yet.

The listing is represented by Adam Modlin of the Modlin Group, and Karen and Kyle Talbott of Corcoran.

Meanwhile, this isn’t Schumer’s first real estate recalibration. 

In 2016, her one-bedroom walk-up on the Upper West Side lingered on the market for more than a year before she slashed the price from $2.07 million to $1.62 million. And in 2023, she sold her Upper West Side penthouse for $13 million, ahead of her Brooklyn move.

Schumer rose to prominence with her Comedy Central series “Inside Amy Schumer” and hit film “Trainwreck,” which she also wrote. She headlined in Netfix’s 2024 ensemble comedy “Unfrosted,” directed by Jerry Seinfeld. Recently, in early 2025, she co-wrote, produced, and starred in the rom-com “Kinda Pregnant.”
