New York, Apr 21 (IANS): Actress Jennifer Aniston has reportedly sold two of her New York apartments at a loss of $500,000.

The 43-year-old bought the two apartments for $7.01 million in November last year as she planned to move to the US East Coast, and has sold the properties for $6.5 million.

Aniston, who was born in Los Angeles, but grew up in New York, feels that the city has changed over the years.

"We tried New York. It was a little rough with the paparazzi. It didn't feel like the New York I grew up in and knew," contactmusic.com quoted Aniston as saying.

However, she has now decided to stay in Los Angeles and is set to move into an 8,500 square foot Bel Air estate with boyfriend Justin Theroux.

"She loved them, but her circumstances changed and the space was just wrong. Jennifer's plan for the apartments was to combine them, knocking the penthouse through to the second space on the 17th floor below," a source added.

"The penthouse is one of the most beautiful terraces in the city, with unobstructed forever views," said broker Bruce Ehrmann.
