A double-width townhouse at 48-50 West 69th Street sold for $45 million on July 10, 2026, a neighborhood record for the Upper West Side. The sale nonetheless closed $40 million beneath the property's last asking price. Jim St. Andre, Trevor Stephens and Michael Maniawski of Compass held the listing. The buyer took title as MI 8787 LLC.
The sellers, Pierre Bastid and Malou Beauvoir, assembled the site from two adjacent houses acquired for a combined $24.5 million in 2011 and 2018, then constructed a single residence of approximately 19,600 square feet across a lengthy and contested build. The finished house holds five bedrooms and eleven bathrooms, an unusual configuration that reflects its origins as two separate structures.
The gap between record price and original ask is the story here. A neighborhood record and a $40 million reduction are not contradictory outcomes: they describe a house that priced itself above any comparable and then found the actual ceiling of its market.
