Late-night television host Seth Meyers listed his two-bedroom condo in Manhattan’s West Village a couple of weeks ago, and already has offers on the $4.5 million property.

“The apartment is breathtaking,” says listing agent Max J. Kozower of Maxwell Jacobs, a boutique operation in New York. “We’ve had a lot of traffic and some offers.”

Aside from the celebrity cachet, we can see the draw of this charming and sunny prewar apartment.

Let’s take “a closer look,” as Meyers might say. The 12th-floor apartment on West 12th St. sits high up in a 1910-built, full-service building. The 1,213-square-foot space was recently renovated and sports views of Village rooftops, midtown skyscrapers, and the Hudson River.

The living room is huge and sunken, with a wood-burning fireplace. The kitchen is white and open, the flooring is hardwood, and the ceilings are high. The apartment also boasts “immense” closets, along with two bathrooms.

The well-situated, coveted address is right across from the picturesque Abingdon Square Park, and is just a short distance from the Hudson River Park, the High Line, and the Meatpacking District.

Meyers and his wife, Alexi Ashe, a human rights lawyer, bought the condo in 2013 for $3.525 million, did some upgrading, and lived there for a few years. Once the sale is closed, we’re betting the couple and their year-old son will decamp to the 3,200-square-foot, Washington Square Park co-op they bought last year for $7.5 million.

An alumnus of the comedy sketch show “Saturday Night Live,” Meyers made his mark there as co-head writer with funny woman Tina Fey, and also anchored the “Weekend Update” desk.

In 2013, Meyers moved over to take on the role of host for NBC’s “Late Night With Seth Meyers,” which has received acclaim for its nightly skewerings of President Donald Trump. NBC recently renewed the comedian’s contract until 2021.
