## Property Overview

Spacious Upper West Side Townhouse One-Bedroom with Two Fireplaces & In-Unit Washer/Dryer

  Just moments from the Museum of Natural History, this exceptionally wide, floor-through townhouse residence offers the scale and charm rarely found in a one-bedroom home. Situated in a beautifully maintained mansion-style townhouse, the apartment features a sprawling 17' x 17' living room, a 13' x 17' bedroom with en-suite bath, a dedicated dressing area with generous closet space, soaring 10-foot ceilings, and oversized windows that fill the home with natural light throughout the day.

  The renovated windowed kitchen is thoughtfully appointed with Zodiac quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, an undermount sink, and a sleek stainless steel tile backsplash. The classic bathroom combines timeless design with modern comfort, featuring subway tile walls, a basketweave marble floor, nickel fixtures, a Toto toilet, a Kohler pedestal sink, and a built-in towel shelf.

  Original architectural details enhance the home's character, including crown moldings, hardwood strip flooring, and two handsome fireplaces-one wood-burning and one decorative. Completing the offering is the convenience of a private, vented in-unit stacked washer and dryer.

 Located on one of the Upper West Side's most picturesque tree-lined blocks, 136 West 78th Street is an intimate four-story, four-unit cooperative townhouse dating to approximately 1896. The building has been meticulously maintained and benefits from numerous capital improvements, including a new roof, updated boiler and hot water systems, upgraded electrical infrastructure, and a comprehensive restoration of the facade, stoop, and entryway. Financing up to 80% is permitted, and pets are welcome.

## Sales Evidence

### Recent closed sales

2 apartments at 136 West 78th Street have recorded sales since September 2021, the most recent for $875,000 in August 2026. Prices are the figures recorded with the City, not asking prices.

| Unit | Beds | Sold Price | Sold | Source |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 3 (Apartment) | 1 | $875,000 | August 27, 2026 | MLS |
| 2R (Apartment) | 1 | $740,000 | March 11, 2024 | City record · 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 co-op one-bedroom sales in Upper West Side is $740,000, based on 305 sales between September 2024 and July 2026. This home is asking $875,000, $135,000 above that median. The middle half of those sales closed between $620,000 and $880,000.

- **Median closed price**: $740,000
- **Middle half**: $620,000 – $880,000
- **Based on**: 305 co-op one-bedroom sales in Upper West Side
- **Period**: September 2024 – July 2026

Square footage is recorded for only 69 of these 305 sales (23%), so no price per square foot is shown for this group. Co-op sales rarely carry a floor area, and a figure drawn from a handful of them would not describe the rest.

Across the 279 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 97.6% of what it originally asked. 67% of them closed below the original ask.

This building has not had enough comparable sales of its own in the period to support a median, so the benchmark is drawn from Upper West Side instead.

### How these sales were negotiated

- **Sold vs original ask**: 97.6% of the original ask
- **Closed below ask**: 67% of 279 sales
- **Listed → in contract**: 62 days (about 9 weeks)
- **In contract → closed**: 83 days (about 12 weeks)

Across the 279 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 97.6% of what it originally asked. 67% of them closed below the original ask.

Half of these homes were in contract within 62 days (about 9 weeks) of coming to market, based on the 278 with a recorded listing date.

Once a deal was agreed, closing took a further 83 days (about 12 weeks), based on the 278 with both dates recorded. A co-op board package and its interview account for much of that.

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 305 co-op one-bedroom sales in Upper West Side, September 2024 – July 2026. Each figure counts only the sales that recorded the dates it needs, which is why the denominators differ.

### Price trend

Median sold price for co-op one-bedroom sales in Upper West Side, 2016 to 2026. The series is held to one bedroom count and one ownership type for the same reason: an unfiltered median tracks which apartments sold, not what they were worth.

| Year | Median sold price | Sales |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 2016 | $780,000 | 33 |
| 2017 | $749,000 | 127 |
| 2018 | $737,250 | 156 |
| 2019 | $750,000 | 101 |
| 2020 | $739,250 | 86 |
| 2021 | $730,000 | 195 |
| 2022 | $760,000 | 212 |
| 2023 | $750,000 | 139 |
| 2024 | $769,000 | 142 |
| 2025 | $755,000 | 180 |
| 2026 | $730,000 | 83 |

This building does not have enough sales with a recorded floor area to chart its own price per square foot, which is usual for a co-op. The series above follows comparable homes across Upper West Side instead.

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.
