Manhattan’s Most Expensive Home Deal

Manhattan just set a new luxury real estate record with a jaw-dropping $85 million deal for a colossal eight-story mansion on West 69th Street—complete with a 55-foot indoor pool, gym, jacuzzi, and 19,600 sq ft of opulence. Built from scratch by a French businessman and his jazz-singing wife after demolishing two adjacent lots, the home was never officially listed but sparked neighborhood complaints during construction. Meanwhile, a sleek Charles Street triplex maisonette nabbed the 2 spot at $21.5M. Last week’s 32 Manhattan contracts totaled $322M, with homes averaging 2 years on market and 10% price cuts—this Upper West Side behemoth could soon become the borough’s most expensive sale ever, though it still trails the city’s $90M record from 2018.
