181 Fremont Street #55C lists at $2.695M — luxury high rises are selling at a massive discount from the developer launch
The 2018-built unit on the 55th floor of 181 Fremont lists at $2,695,000. No recent sales of comparable SF condos at similar size and floor count are in the record, which limits the like-for-like read.
181 Fremont Street #55C asks $2.695M. The like-for-like peer record is empty.
The unit at 181 Fremont Street #55C came to market September 30, 2026, priced at $2,695,000 — $1,680 per square foot on 1,605 square feet. That asking price sits $59,400 above the 90-day active median for its market segment ($2,635,600). Without a peer sales record to anchor it, the price-per-square-foot figure is the only internal measure available.

How it compares with homes like it
The peer rule here is: condos, 2 bedrooms, roughly 1,280–1,930 square feet, San Francisco, sold in the past 180 days. No sales meeting those criteria appear in the record. With fewer than three true peers, no reliable like-for-like price-per-square-foot range can be stated. The closest available data points are the six recent sales in the broader size band below, which include mixed property types and locations across the city — a different comparison.
What the evidence does show: the 90-day active median for the segment this unit competes in is $2,635,600. At $2,695,000, this listing sits about 2.3 percent above that figure. Whether that premium is warranted by floor height, views, or building amenities is outside what the sales record can answer right now.
Comparable sales
These are the six most recent SF sales within 25 percent of the subject's size, per the market data. They are not condo-to-condo peers — property types and neighborhoods vary. Read the table accordingly.

| 1000 3rd Street #1305 | Sep 16, 2026 | $1,680,000 | 1,218 | $1,379 | 2 bed, condo |

| 30 Prescott Court | Sep 11, 2026 | $2,250,000 | 1,772 | $1,270 | 3 bed |
| 1423 Golden Gate Avenue | Sep 11, 2026 | $2,250,000 | 1,703 | $1,321 | 3 bed |

| 630 Natoma Street #3 | Sep 10, 2026 | $1,525,000 | 1,406 | $1,085 | 2 bed |
The six sales span $1,085 to $2,127 per square foot. The two-bedroom condo at 1000 3rd Street — the closest in type — sold at $1,379 per square foot on 1,218 square feet. The 181 Fremont ask of $1,680 per square foot sits well above that, though the buildings, floors, and locations are not equivalent.
Condos and townhomes across San Francisco
For the size band matching 181 Fremont (1,284–1,926 sq ft), 43 sales closed in the last 180 days at a median of $1,850,000 and $1,248 per square foot. The 181 Fremont ask of $1,680 per square foot runs 35 percent above that size-band median on a per-square-foot basis. That gap is notable, but the size-band pool mixes property types and does not isolate high-rise condos.
How the San Francisco market is doing
Across all property types, 130 sales closed in the last 180 days in San Francisco, with a median price of $1,466,000 and a median of $1,237 per square foot. The full range ran from $563,000 to $8,500,000 — the $8.5M figure is the recorded high over the last 24 months. At $2,695,000, 181 Fremont #55C's asking price sits at roughly the 86th percentile of that 130-sale pool, meaning 18 of those 130 sales recorded above it. That is a whole-market comparison including houses, and it is offered only for orientation — not as a like-for-like read.
