## Property Overview

Residence 5C at 76 West 85th Street is a rarely available prewar duplex condominium that combines the warmth and charm of the Upper West Side with the character of a loft-style home. Situated within an intimate boutique building moments from Central Park, this thoughtfully designed two-bedroom, two-bath residence offers an efficient and flexible layout, multiple private outdoor spaces, and a unique sense of separation between living areas.

The main level features inviting proportions, rich mahogany hardwood floors, and an open living and dining area with approximately 11-foot ceilings and oversized south-facing windows that fill the home with natural light. The open kitchen integrates seamlessly into the living space, offering practical storage and prep capacity while maintaining an easy flow for both everyday living and entertaining.

Just beyond the living area, a sunny south-facing planting terrace creates a peaceful outdoor extension of the home, ideal for morning coffee, outdoor dining, or quiet relaxation surrounded by greenery.
The duplex configuration thoughtfully separates the bedrooms across two levels, creating privacy and flexibility for guests, work-from-home needs, or creative use. A charming staircase adds architectural character and connects to the upper level, which opens onto an expansive private roof deck — a rare and highly desirable feature in the neighborhood, perfect for entertaining, lounging, or enjoying open city views.

Both bathrooms have been well maintained, including recent improvements to the upstairs shower, and the apartment has been carefully upgraded over time. Additional features include a washer/dryer, dishwasher, windowed kitchen, foyer entry, excellent wall space for art, and flexible living arrangements throughout.

A movable sound-isolation booth currently incorporated into the apartment presents a unique opportunity for musicians, podcasters, recording artists, or anyone seeking an exceptionally quiet workspace while preserving the versatility of the room itself.

Built in the prewar era, this boutique condominium offers a classic residential experience with a live-in superintendent, laundry room, pet-friendly policies, garden access, and low monthly carrying costs. The building’s traditional Upper West Side character complements the home’s comfortable duplex layout and loft-inspired details.

Perfectly positioned just off Central Park, 76 West 85th Street places residents moments from some of the neighborhood’s most beloved destinations, including the Museum of Natural History, local cafés and restaurants, neighborhood markets, and multiple subway lines. This is a distinctive opportunity to own a charming duplex home with private outdoor space, architectural character, and condominium flexibility in one of Manhattan’s most enduring neighborhoods.

## Sales Evidence

### Recent closed sales

2 apartments at The Iris Condominium have recorded sales since September 2021, the most recent for $776,094 in June 2024. Prices are the figures recorded with the City, not asking prices.

| Unit | Beds | Sq Ft | Sold Price | $/ft² | Sold | Source |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 3A (Apartment) | 1 | 534 | $776,094 | $1,453/ft² | June 4, 2024 | City record · MLS |
| 4A (Apartment) | 3 | 534 | $653,500 | $1,224/ft² | January 24, 2022 | City record |

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 condo two-bedroom sales in Upper West Side is $1,954,250, based on 146 sales between September 2024 and July 2026. This home is asking $1,500,000, $454,250 below that median. The middle half of those sales closed between $1,600,000 and $2,428,750.

- **Median closed price**: $1,954,250
- **Middle half**: $1,600,000 – $2,428,750
- **Based on**: 146 condo two-bedroom sales in Upper West Side
- **Period**: September 2024 – July 2026
- **Median $/ft²**: $1,629/ft²

Across the 130 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 96.4% of what it originally asked. 76% 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**: 96.4% of the original ask
- **Closed below ask**: 76% of 130 sales
- **Listed → in contract**: 66 days (about 9 weeks)
- **In contract → closed**: 55 days (about 8 weeks)

Across the 130 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 96.4% of what it originally asked. 76% of them closed below the original ask.

Half of these homes were in contract within 66 days (about 9 weeks) of coming to market, based on the 120 with a recorded listing date.

Once a deal was agreed, closing took a further 55 days (about 8 weeks), based on the 132 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 146 condo two-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 condo and house two-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 | $1,707,500 | 18 |
| 2017 | $1,872,500 | 66 |
| 2018 | $1,935,000 | 57 |
| 2019 | $1,725,000 | 53 |
| 2020 | $1,866,500 | 59 |
| 2021 | $1,795,000 | 113 |
| 2022 | $2,100,000 | 89 |
| 2023 | $1,780,000 | 75 |
| 2024 | $1,870,000 | 71 |
| 2025 | $1,820,000 | 73 |
| 2026 | $2,112,500 | 54 |

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.

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.

Where an abatement applies, Property Tax is the amount owed after it. Abatements are granted to the property and do not necessarily transfer to a new owner.

Figures are the New York City Department of Finance assessment roll for tax lot 1011981127. 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.
