For nearly two decades, actress Parker Posey has cultivated an off-screen identity as a self-described “land lady” in New York’s wealthy Hudson valley, withdrawing from New York City to a 16 hectare widespread along the Hudson River.
But increasing renovation costs can soon end her experiment at upstate.
Posey, 56, discovered in Podcast “Smartless” – organized by Jason Bateman, Sean Hayes and Will Arnett – that she is thinking of selling the house on the farm she bought in 2007 for $ 650,000 and going to Los Angeles again.
“I don’t know if I have to say goodbye to renovation because it’s so expensive, and if I just have to sell it and move elsewhere,” she told the hosts.
The property, which includes a barn, a tourist -style pool, a pond and a gazebo was thought to be a private, pastoral escape.
But her charm has come at a steep price.
Posey described her home as “really fragile granola” and said she was overloaded by costs and complexity of its improvement.
“I’m trying to renovate and get a new kitchen because there is isolation, you know the tubes freeze and everything; and I love a project, but I don’t see my home and I think it’s mine,” she said.
The actress, known for her roles in “Dazed and Confused”, “The Daytrippers” and “Girl Girl”, noted that while she feeds the rural environment, preserving the house without supporting a city base has been difficult.
“I couldn’t keep the city and place, so I was rescued from the city and now I was putting bird seeds in the nutrients,” she said.
Her current renewal dilemma has aroused some creative storms. Posey sailed the idea of filming her contractors for a series of television.
“I would like to do a show for improving the house,” she said, adding that she asked her contractors if she could film them on her phone.
Beyond her real estate concerts, the Podcast used Podcast to reflect on the arch of her acting career and how she fought to move from Indie Darling to the Mainstream star.
“I feel right when I was exposed, and the whole Indie movement was exposed, it also joined the studio system, and then it became another thing,” she said.
“Suddenly, I was not applicable to finance a movie, and it was such a trip to my head because I would have to hear auditions about Hollywood films when I finished the lead in independent films that were shot in 23 days.”
Posey said she often felt boxed by her perceptions as “too much indie” for the main studio films.
“I felt like I was called a name, in a way,” she added.
Despite these challenges, the “White Lotus” star continued to work with well -known directors – often at the expense of greater salaries.
“Not paying too much, but being able to work and fulfill my creativity,” she said.
In recent years, Posey has consistently deviated from the New York City real estate.
She sold her attic at East Village in 2017 for $ 2.3 million, followed by a Greenwich Village apartment in 2016 for $ 1.45 million, and more recently, a Chelsea Triplex for $ 1.7 million.
Now, as she weighs if she will remain rooted in her withdrawal in upstate or return to Hollywood, Posey says she is still looking for her place – both in community and her home.
“I just want to give it so much because it’s home on the old farm,” she said. “So I think what I’m saying is that I’m trying to figure out where I’m sitting in the community.”
