Seven townhouse signings spurred Manhattan’s luxury market last week, which saw 25 homes enter contract. 

It’s the highest number of luxury townhouse contracts in a single week since June, according to Olshan Realty’s weekly report on homes asking $4 million or more. 

The most expensive home to enter contract last week was the townhouse at 109 Waverly Place. The home was asking just under $20 million, down from $25 million when it was listed in August 2022. 

The four-story home has seven bedrooms, six bathrooms and spans 8,300 square feet. It also has two powder rooms, an elevator and a lap pool, gym, sauna and wine cellar in the basement. 

The seller bought the home in 2011 for $17.8 million.

The second most expensive home to go into contract last week was PHA at 527 West 27th Street. The unit had an asking price just under $18 million, down from $21 million when it was listed off floorplans in 2016. 

The four-bedroom, 4.5-bathroom duplex condo spans 4,500 square feet and has a 4,600-square-foot terrace off the upstairs that has a kitchen and outdoor pool. Amenities at the building, dubbed The Jardim, include a 60-foot skylit pool, a yoga studio, on-site parking and a fitness center.

Serhant’s Chase Landow had the listing.

There were 14 condo signings and four co-op contracts in addition to the seven townhouse signings last week — a sharp decline from the 40 contract signings two weeks ago. Still, it’s the sixth week in a row at least 25 contracts have been signed. 

The homes’ combined asking price was $206.9 million, which works out to an average asking price of $8.3 million and a median just under $7 million. The typical home received a 12 percent discount and spent 584 days on the market.
