## Property Overview

Unit 17B is a 1-bedroom and 1.5-bathroom residence, designed by Champalimaud, the globally renowned luxury interior architecture studio. The unit is located at The Centrale, a 71-story condo building built in 20219 that mirrors the atmosphere of a luxurious boutique hotel.

Throughout the home, floor-to-ceiling windows with northern exposures bring abundant natural light to each room. The chef’s kitchen features honed Capri marble countertops that elegantly continue into the backsplash and waterfall kitchen island, which offers comfortable space for barstool seating. The kitchen’s refined aesthetic is complemented by custom white oak millwork cabinetry that seamlessly integrates a full Gaggenau appliance package, including an under-the-counter wine refrigerator, and Dornbracht fixtures throughout.

The well-proportioned bedroom comfortably accommodates a king-size bed and features an en-suite bathroom designed to imitate a spa-like retreat. In the bathroom, Bianco Dolomiti radiant heated floors add warmth underfoot, while luxury Marno Illusion marble frames a beautiful glass shower. A custom vanity, complete with rift-cut wood veneer, showcases exceptional craftsmanship and is complemented by top-of-the-line Kallista and Dornbracht fixtures.

The powder room introduces a bold contrast to the residence’s light and airy aesthetic with striking Nero Maquina marble. Its Cobalt Flash marble-wet wall and ebony-stained oak vanity create a dramatic focal point. The residence also features soaring 9’9” ceilings, white oak flooring, a Nest Learning Thermostat, and a Bosch washer and dryer.

The Centrale offers a myriad of unique features, such as its Porte-Cochère, which spans from 50th Street to 49th Street, and an elevated outdoor garden terrace, a highly unusual offering for Midtown Manhattan. The amenity spaces feature beautiful lounges with soaring ceilings, a catering kitchen, dining room, yoga studio, and a spectacular 75-foot lap pool that overlooks the cutting-edge gym, blending the charm of Art Deco architecture with contemporary elements. The grand amenity spaces are personalized with handmade artwork, distinctive marbles, natural stones, and dramatic light fixtures.

Showing the 40 most recent of 76 recorded sales in this period.

Every row is a recorded transaction, including ancillary spaces such as storage and staff rooms where they were sold separately. Those are excluded from the benchmark below.

### How this price compares

The median closed price for comparable one-bedroom sales at The Centrale is $2,523,625, based on 13 sales between October 2021 and June 2026. This home is asking $1,500,000, $1,023,625 below that median. The middle half of those sales closed between $1,710,660 and $2,600,000.

- **Median closed price**: $2,523,625
- **Middle half**: $1,710,660 – $2,600,000
- **Based on**: 13 one-bedroom sales at The Centrale
- **Period**: October 2021 – June 2026
- **Median $/ft²**: $2,126/ft²

Across the 10 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 89.7% of what it originally asked. 100% of them closed below the original ask.

### How these sales were negotiated

- **Sold vs original ask**: 89.7% of the original ask
- **Closed below ask**: 100% of 10 sales
- **Listed → in contract**: 98 days (about 14 weeks)
- **In contract → closed**: 38 days (about 5 weeks)

Across the 10 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 89.7% of what it originally asked. 100% of them closed below the original ask.

Half of these homes were in contract within 98 days (about 14 weeks) of coming to market, based on the 9 with a recorded listing date.

Once a deal was agreed, closing took a further 38 days (about 5 weeks), based on the 11 with both dates recorded.

These are two separate periods measured on different clocks — time to find a buyer, and time from agreed deal to closing. They are medians of different sets of sales and do not add together into a single "days on market" figure.

Based on 13 one-bedroom sales at The Centrale, October 2021 – June 2026. Each figure counts only the sales that recorded the dates it needs, which is why the denominators differ.

### Price trend

Median price per square foot for sales at The Centrale, 2020 to 2026. Price per square foot is used rather than sale price so the line follows the market rather than whichever apartments happened to change hands that year.

| Year | Median $/ft² | Sales |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 2020 | $2,059/ft² | 17 |
| 2021 | $2,020/ft² | 31 |
| 2022 | $1,971/ft² | 16 |
| 2023 | $2,167/ft² | 14 |
| 2024 | $2,175/ft² | 10 |
| 2025 | $2,147/ft² | 11 |
| 2026 | $2,100/ft² | 6 |

Sale prices are the consideration recorded with the City in ACRIS, and each sale is dated by the day the City recorded it. A closing date reported to the MLS typically falls one to two weeks earlier. Recorded sales describe what has already happened and are not an appraisal, a valuation, or an estimate of what this home will sell for.
