Twenty-two contracts were signed last week at $4 million and above, continuing a steady trend of 20-plus weeks of sales since the end of January. Condos outsold co-ops, 13 to 4. Four townhouses and 1 condop added to the total. The average days on the market was 390, and almost half of last week’s total was Downtown including the No.1 contract.
That would be the townhouse at 66 Morton Street, asking $16.5 million, reduced from $18.45 million when it went on the market at the end of November. The house is being sold by jeweler David Yurman, who purchased the property for $17 million in February 2015. This 25-foot-wide brick house has 5,834 square feet, and needs to be totally renovated.
The No. 2 contract was 11A at 910 Fifth Avenue, asking $14.9 million, reduced from $17.5 million when it went on the market in the middle of November. This 9-room co-op has a 59-foot expanse overlooking Central Park from the living room, master bedroom, and sitting room. It has 5 bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms, and has a doorman, gym, and a garage—but does not allow pets, and could use a complete renovation.
