## Property Overview

A renovated two-family townhouse nestled less than two blocks from Central Park, this 7-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom home offers the flexibility to be used as either a spacious single-family residence or maintained as a two-family property with income potential.

 The property is currently occupied by a tenant through April 2026, generating strong rental income-providing a turnkey investment opportunity for end users or investors

 The townhouse is a seamless blend of contemporary convenience and classic charm, featuring a beautifully preserved brownstone and redbrick facade, beautiful hardwood floors, high ceilings with crown molding, classic sash windows, chic built-ins, a private backyard patio, and a collection of lovely details including marble fireplaces and hand-laid floor tiles. Modern upgrades include a new central air system, fully renovated bathrooms throughout, and a smart home system allowing total control from your phone.

 The home is currently configured as two private units with separate entrances but can easily function as a single-family townhouse via an existing interior staircase. The upper triplex boasts five bedrooms, three bathrooms, and access to the private patio. The parlor floor opens into an elegant entry hall with wainscoting and a chandelier and flows into a gorgeous eat-in kitchen with granite countertops, stone tile backsplashes, custom glass-fronted cabinetry, high-end appliances, and a breakfast nook with built-in banquette seating. Formal living and dining rooms complete the level.

 The primary bedroom sits on the third floor and features a pair of reach-in closets and a Jack-and-Jill bathroom that leads into a second bedroom and includes double sinks, a walk-in shower, and a free-standing soaking tub. The fourth floor houses the remaining three bedrooms, a laundry room, and a full bathroom with a step-in shower and separate soaking tub.

 The garden level includes two bedrooms, one bathroom, a large living and dining area, a pristine full bath with a large vanity and brass fixtures, and a spotless kitchen equipped with marble countertops, white cabinetry, a convenient pass-through, and a suite of high-end stainless steel appliances.

 Situated in the heart of the Upper West Side, 120 West 87th Street is moments from the restaurants, bars, cafes, and shops that line Columbus and Amsterdam Avenues. It sits between Riverside and Central Parks, and is close to the American Museum of Natural History and the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir. Nearby subway lines include the 1/B/C.

## Sales Evidence

### Recent closed sales

120 West 87th Street has 4 recorded sales since September 2021, the most recent for $5,795,000 in May 2024. Prices are the figures recorded with the City, not asking prices.

| Unit | Beds | Sq Ft | Sold Price | $/ft² | Sold | Source |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Entire property (Single Family Residence) | 4 | 3,480 | $5,795,000 | $1,665/ft² | May 6, 2024 | MLS |
| 4A (Apartment) | Studio | — | $492,500 | — | September 18, 2023 | City record · MLS |
| 2-C (Apartment) | 1 | — | $586,000 | — | September 7, 2022 | City record · MLS |
| 4-FLR (Triplex) | 3 | — | $2,300,000 | — | March 21, 2022 | MLS |

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 house sales in Upper West Side is $5,795,000, based on 59 sales between December 2021 and August 2026. This home is asking $6,350,000, $555,000 above that median. The middle half of those sales closed between $4,550,000 and $6,675,000.

- **Median closed price**: $5,795,000
- **Middle half**: $4,550,000 – $6,675,000
- **Based on**: 59 house sales in Upper West Side
- **Period**: December 2021 – August 2026
- **Median $/ft²**: $1,045/ft²

Across the 56 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 89.6% of what it originally asked. 88% of them closed below the original ask.

A house is not part of a building of comparable apartments, so this benchmark is drawn from house sales across Upper West Side. Apartment sales are excluded from it entirely.

### How these sales were negotiated

- **Sold vs original ask**: 89.6% of the original ask
- **Closed below ask**: 88% of 56 sales
- **Listed → in contract**: 130 days (about 19 weeks)
- **In contract → closed**: 67 days (about 10 weeks)

Across the 56 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 89.6% of what it originally asked. 88% of them closed below the original ask.

Half of these homes were in contract within 130 days (about 19 weeks) of coming to market, based on the 55 with a recorded listing date.

Once a deal was agreed, closing took a further 67 days (about 10 weeks), based on the 56 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 59 house sales in Upper West Side, December 2021 – August 2026. Each figure counts only the sales that recorded the dates it needs, which is why the denominators differ.

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.

The City has not published the official FY2026/27 and FY2025/26 tax rates yet. We calculated the tax for those years using the prior year’s rate, so treat them as an estimate rather than a figure the City has adopted. Every rate without the Estimated marker is the published one.

Tax Assessment is the assessed value on the City’s roll, and it is the figure other listing sites publish. It is not what the bill is calculated on. New York phases assessment changes in gradually for some tax classes, so the City bills the Billable Value shown beside it, less any exemption the owner holds. It usually trails the assessment, and it can sit above it for a few years after an assessment falls.

Figures are the New York City Department of Finance assessment roll for tax lot 1012170042. Assessed and billable values are determined by the City for tax purposes and are not an appraisal or an estimate of market value. Tax classes and rates are set annually and can change.
