Jesse Tyler Fergusonand husbandJustin Mikitahave given their Big Apple apartment a makeover, as the couple reveal they plan to spend more time on the East Coast.
They settled on a two-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath home in the Chelsea neighborhood of Manhattan with the help of Ferguson’s friend and real estate agent, Sarah Saltzberg.
“I feel very at home here,” Ferguson, 44, toldADof their new home base. “I was strictly a theater actor before moving to Los Angeles, so New York sort of feels like my true home.”

Ferguson told the outlet the couple spends most of their time in the living room, which has a “really nice, big couch.” Adding, “We got the cloud from Restoration Hardware, which I thinka lot of people own. And they do because it’s such a great couch.”
“I don’t know why I don’t have one in every room now because they’re so beautiful,” Ferguson says.
The decor in the apartment is colorful and the couple wanted to make use of different shapes and designs — hence the animal-print pillows and textured furniture pieces.

Ferguson and Mikita also wanted to make sure they were getting the most storage space they could out of their city apartment.
“Every time we augmented something, we tried to do it in a way where we would add storage as well,” Ferguson explains. “We were always looking for places to tuck things away.”
This includes the kitchen, where there was “strangely no drawer for silverware,” which the couple had to add later.
They also wanted to have a comfortable space to host guests. (They recently celebrated Christmas with both sides of their extended families gathering in their new home.)
“It’s where we told them all that we were pregnant, so that was a fun way to celebrate the apartment,” the actor added.

The coupletied the knotin July 2013 at a ceremony in downtown New York City, with playwright Tony Kushner officiating.
