The penthouse apartment that serves as the on-screen home of Roman Roy on HBO’s Succession has hit the market for a whopping $38million.

The apartment rose to fame in the latest season of the HBO show, serving as Roman Roy’s newest residence as he plots his rise to grandeur. 

Roman Roy’s spacious four-bedroom, 4½-bath Upper West Side duplex is located in real life on the 49th and 50th floors of 200 Amsterdam Avenue, the tallest building in the area.

The building previously drew criticism even before it was built after its planned height was felt to be out of character with the neighborhood. 

A judge ordered the developer, SJP Properties, to remove 20 floors from the top of the 52-story building since it violated zoning laws.

Roman Roy, played by Keiran Culkin, is the third-oldest son of fictitious media mogul Logan Roy, played by Brian Cox. 

Succession tells the story of Logan Roy’s children and their battle for control of Waystar RoyCo, the global media giant, which is facing an uncertain future due to the founder’s failing health. 

Kierean’s co-star, actor Jeremy Strong said in an interview with EW last year that the swanky apartments each of the siblings live in were ‘necessary’ to show off just how wealthy the characters in the show are.

‘I think it’s necessary that the rarified world that these characters live in, that we are in the show, and the show has that wingspan and that grandeur.

‘It was limited by the pandemic in terms of where we could go and what we could do, but I think they really pulled it off,’ he continued. 

The views from the penthouse offer stunning panoramic views of the Hudson River, Central Park, and the city skyline.

In fourth episode of what is now the fourth and final season, Roman is seen getting ready for an event in the bathroom of the penthouse’s main bedroom. 

The interior of the home was designed by Andre Mellone, founder of Studio Mellone.
