Dolly Lenz Real Estate

Lenz on Luxury | Olde Naples

Olde Naples continues to prove why it remains one of Southwest Florida’s most coveted luxury enclaves. Over the past 12 months, luxury sales above $5M surged 62% year over year to 39 transactions, even as the median luxury sale price eased slightly to $6.8M and average pricing settled at $1,859psf. The moderation in pricing comes after several years of outsized appreciation, but demand for premier properties in the neighborhood remains exceptionally strong.

Olde Naples perfectly balances timeless coastal charm with today’s elevated luxury lifestyle. Known for its lush streets, elegant beachfront homes, and welcoming neighborhood feel, the area offers a uniquely relaxed sophistication that continues to resonate with luxury buyers. Whether it’s a morning walk to the Gulf, biking to dinner along 5th Avenue South, or enjoying the neighborhood’s vibrant yet understated social scene, Olde Naples delivers the quintessential Naples lifestyle in one of the city’s most prestigious and enduring locations.

Lenz on Luxury | Carnegie Hill

Defined by grand prewar architecture, tree-lined streets, and some of Manhattan’s most elegant townhomes, Carnegie Hill continues to stand out as one of the city’s most timeless and exclusive residential enclaves. From the iconic cooperatives along Fifth and Park Avenue to the easy access of the Central Park Reservoir, the neighborhood offers a rare blend of classic New York charm and refined uptown living.

The numbers continue to reflect that enduring appeal. Median luxury sale price climbed to $7.462M, up 7.3% YoY, while luxury sales above $5M surged 20.8% YoY to 58 transactions over the past 12 months. Average closed pricing also strengthened to $2,259psf, a 7% increase year over year.

While Carnegie Hill remains deeply rooted in its historic identity, a wave of thoughtfully designed new developments has introduced a more modern layer to the neighborhood, bringing highly amenitized living to one of Manhattan’s most established luxury markets. Demand for the area continues to remain strong as buyers seek a balance of architecture, privacy, prestige, and proximity to Central Park.
