20 Contracts Signed
An Artic freeze couldn’t chill the luxury market last week. The temperature may have dropped but buyers warmed to thinning inventory: 20 contracts were signed at $4 million and above.
The No. 1 contract was a townhouse at 106 East 71st Street, asking $26.5 million, reduced from $31 million when it went on the market in March 2010. This 6-story, 25-foot-wide limestone house was purchased in 2007 for $16.5 million and transformed from a 2-family into a single-family house with 17-rooms including 7 bedrooms, an elevator, and 7 fireplaces. In October 2010, the 10,235-square-foot building was used to stage the Kips Bay Decorator Show House.
The No. 2 contract was 117 East 64th Street, asking $12 million, which sold after 7 months on the market. This 20-foot-wide townhouse has 7 bedrooms, 6 baths, an elevator, 7 fireplaces, and was renovated in 2005. It has been owned by the Swedish Government since 1978. Sweden also owns 3 other large townhouses, these at the corner of 64th and Park, all of which were purchased in 1946: 600, 604, and 608 Park Avenue. Together they span 125-feet of prime Park Avenue frontage.
