As an independent luxury buyer representative, Régis shares 50% of the buyer-side commission he actually receives on your purchase. Eligible buyers receive that Buyer Commission Share directly at closing to offset closing costs, down payments, or renovations. The figures below are illustrative, based on a **3% buyer-broker commission**; your share follows the commission offered on the transaction.

- **Contract Purchase Price**: $950,000
- **Illustrative Buyer Commission Share**: -$14,250*
- **Illustrative Net Cost**: $935,750

*Illustrative Buyer Savings of $14,250 — 50% of a 3% buyer-broker commission, shared at closing.*

## Property Overview

Junior-4 with Balcony in Lincoln Square

Some photos are digitally staged.

A high-floor Junior 4 with a private balcony, in one of Lincoln Square's most sought-after condominiums, ready for your personal touch.

The open living area includes a dining alcove, and the generously sized bedroom has an en-suite bath. A washer/dryer and powder room complete the layout. The home is pet friendly, non-smoking, and it works equally well as a primary residence, pied-à-terre, or investment property.

The Alfred is a full-service condominium set on a quiet cul-de-sac, with a private, key-operated walkway leading to Lincoln Center. Amenities include a 75-foot pool, hot tub, sauna, steam room, separate cardio and strength-training gyms, a courtyard garden, and a garage.

The location is ideal, a short distance from Lincoln Center and Columbus Circle, with Riverside Park South and Central Park close by. Performing arts, fine shops, restaurants, outdoor recreation, and public transportation are all close at hand.

Call today to arrange a private showing.

Note: The real estate tax shown reflects the primary residence rate; otherwise, it would be $1,379. The monthly assessment is $752 through December 2026, decreasing to $501 through December 2028.

Sales data through September 2026.

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.
