Data through October 1, 2026. Trailing windows end on the data date and use closed sales only. Typical residences: living area <= 1.5x building median. Months of supply = active listings / (prior-12-month sales / 12). Days on market is the median cumulative days on market (CDOM), which carries across relistings. Floor premium from OLS regression of $/SF on sale date, floor and living area, published only when positive and statistically distinguishable. Annual medians in years with one or two sales are noisy.

What buyers and owners should know about The Windsor
- Thin resale market: only 31 residences — the fewest of any Bay Colony beachfront tower — so resales are infrequent and a building-only comparable set can span years. Pricing leans on residence-specific adjustments and the adjacent towers.
- Scale: plans run roughly 6,085–8,550 sq ft, with upper penthouses reported above 10,000 sq ft — a narrower buyer pool than the 2,800–3,400 sq ft plans that dominate the other beachfront towers.
- How it trades: five closings in the 24 months through October 1, 2026 — all in 2025 — at a median $1,643/SF and an average of $11.38M. No sale closed in the following twelve months, and one residence was listed at the data date, so months of supply cannot be measured meaningfully.
- Due diligence: delivered in 1998; review the milestone inspection report, structural integrity reserve study and reserve funding level before contract.
