The wheels of the United States luxury real estate market keep turning with big-time sales and exceptional new listings popping up every day.
While on opposite coasts and consisting of disparate inventory, New York City and Los Angeles share similarly competitive markets and, as such, have some of the most expensive real estate in the country.
Here are some latest luxury properties that recently hit or left the market in two of America’s greatest cities.

FOR SALE—Manhattan ($2.2 Million)
Hudson Square, a West Side neighborhood just south of Greenwich Village, was once known as the printing district. Today, printing businesses have been replaced by the likes of Google and Disney, with both having built sizable headquarters in the once-industrial area just this year.

The Brooklyn neighborhood of Clinton Hills is known for its rows of classic brownstones.
SOLD—Brooklyn ($4.65 Million)
A $4.65 million, all-cash sale for a newly constructed townhome showcases the ever-growing prestige and value of homes in the north-central Brooklyn neighborhood of Clinton Hills. Completed in 2021, the 3,300-square-foot residence is one of seven masterfully designed townhomes built on Clinton Hill’s Mansion Row. Despite covering four stories, the home’s parlor floor still boasts 12-foot ceilings with transom windows and walls of glass with sliding doors leading to an outdoor terrace.
A sizable front-to-back silver skylight on the roof feeds light onto the solid oak staircase. High-end finishes can be seen throughout, including Calcutta marble slabs in the primary bathroom, custom-built white walnut Italian cabinetry in the chef’s kitchen and Terrazzo floors in the three remaining full bathrooms. The exterior features a similar sophistication with brick coursing, modern cornice treatment and archways reminiscent of nearby carriage houses. Matthew Wojnarowicz at Elegran held the listing.

SOLD—Palos Verdes Estates ($11 Million)
With homes set on a dramatic hillside landscape overlooking the Pacific Ocean, Palos Verdes Estates has quietly grown into a popular alternative to Malibu. Offering more reasonably priced properties, the area is still one of the most exclusive communities in southern California. At $11 million, the sale of this elegant French chateau-style mansion is well above the average for Palos Verdes Estates.
However, it is not necessarily an anomaly for the seaside town that still stores inventory approaching that price. That said, the home is anything but standard. Fronted by towering gates, a winding brick driveway and courtyard, the 10,000-square-foot stately mansion sits above Palos Verdes Peninsula with views of a famed bit of California coastline known as the Queen’s Necklace.
Displaying its French inspirations, the home features ornate detail molding, crystal chandeliers and a spiral staircase. Other highlights include a 12-seat movie theater, pool lounge and wine cellar. Thanks to the home’s hillside positioning, the grounds are spread across multiple layers of manicured gardens and terraces with exceptional far-reaching views. Lily Liang of Strand Hill Properties represented the sellers of the distinguished estate.
