Changing attribute of class does not trigger setter and printing it does not trigger getter

Question

I'm probably missing something really simple here.

I'm trying to use property() to add getter and setter functions to an attribute of MyClass.

class MyClass:
    def __init__(self, attr):
        self._attr = attr

        def attr_setter(self, value):
            print(f'Setting attr')
            self._attr = value

        def attr_getter(self):
            print('Getting attr')
            return self._attr

        self.attr = property(fget=attr_getter, fset=attr_setter)

c = MyClass('something')
print(c.attr)
c.attr = 'something else'
print(c.attr)

However, the print statements and the assignment do not trigger attr_setter and attr_getter. I get the following output:

property object at <0x0000024A26B489A0>
something else

class MyClass:
    def __init__(self, attr):
        #self._attr = attr --> you might want to call the setter
        self.attr_setter(attr)
    
    # correcting the indentation
    def attr_setter(self, value):
        print(f'Setting attr')
        self._attr = value

    def attr_getter(self):
        print('Getting attr')
        return self._attr

    attr = property(fget=attr_getter, fset=attr_setter)

c = MyClass('something')  #Setting attr
print(c.attr) #Getting attr something
c.attr = 'something else' #Setting attr
print(c.attr) #Getting attr something else

# Setting attr
# Getting attr
# something
# Setting attr
# Getting attr
# something else
