    This Form 10-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning
of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  Actual results could differ materially
from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of a
number of factors, including those identified herein.

ITEM 1.    BUSINESS

    Krupp Realty Limited Partnership-IV ("KRLP-IV") was formed on December
1, 1982 by filing a Certificate of Limited Partnership in The Commonwealth
of Massachusetts.  The Krupp Corporation, a Massachusetts corporation, and
The Krupp Company Limited Partnership-II, a Massachusetts limited
partnership, are the General Partners of KRLP-IV.  KRLP-IV has also issued
all of the Original Limited Partner Interests to The Krupp Company Limited
Partnership-II.  On January 18, 1983, KRLP-IV commenced the offering of up
to 30,000 units of Investor Limited Partner Interests (the "Units").  As
of March 31, 1983, KRLP-IV received subscriptions for all 30,000 Units at
$1,000 per Unit and therefore, the public offering was successfully
completed on that date.  For details, see Note A to Consolidated Financial
Statements included in Item 8 (Appendix A) of this report.  
    The primary business of KRLP-IV is to acquire, operate and ultimately
dispose of real estate.  KRLP-IV initially acquired six multi-family
apartment complexes (Copper Creek, Walden Pond (formerly Westbridge),
Indian Run, Fenland Field, Pavillion and Tilbury Woods Apartments), a
retail center (Lakeview Plaza) and invested in a joint venture in Lakeview
Tower (the "Joint Venture") with an affiliated limited partnership.  KRLP-
IV considers itself to be engaged only in the industry segment of
investment in real estate.

    KRLP-IV sold Lakeview Plaza and Tilbury Woods Apartments in 1990 and
1991, respectively.  Additionally, KRLP-IV received a terminating capital
distribution from the Joint Venture with proceeds from the sale of
Lakeview Tower in 1992.  In 1990, the General Partners formed three
limited partnerships:  Pavillion Partners, Ltd., Copper Creek Partners,
Ltd. and Westbridge Partners, Ltd.  At the same time, the General Partners
transferred ownership of Pavillion Apartments to Pavillion Partners, Ltd.,
Copper Creek Apartments to Copper Creek Partners, Ltd., and Walden Pond
Apartments to Westbridge Partners, Ltd. in exchange for a 99% Limited
Partner Interest in the new entities.  Westcop Corporation, an affiliate
of KRLP-IV, contributed a total of $11,216 in exchange for a 1% General
Partner Interest in the new entities.  KRLP-IV, Pavillion Partners, Ltd.,
Copper Creek Partners, Ltd. and Westbridge Partners, Ltd., are
collectively known as Krupp Realty Limited Partnership-IV and Subsidiaries
(collectively referred to herein as the "Partnership").  The Partnership
endeavored to renegotiate the debt on these properties, the negotiations
were unsuccessful and these partnerships subsequently petitioned for
relief under federal bankruptcy laws.

    Pavillion Partners, Ltd. emerged from its bankruptcy proceedings with a
restructuring of its indebtedness during 1991.  In 1992, the bankruptcy
court approved the plans of reorganization for Copper Creek Partners, Ltd.
and Westbridge Partners, Ltd.  Under their respective plans of
reorganization, the Court allowed the lender to foreclose on Copper Creek
Apartments and the Partnership received a restructuring of Walden Pond
Apartments' indebtedness.  For details see Note D to Consolidated
Financial Statements included in Item 8 (Appendix A) of this report.

    The Partnership's real estate investments are subject to some seasonal
fluctuations resulting from changes in utility consumption and seasonal
maintenance expenditures.  However, the future performance of the
Partnership will depend upon factors which cannot be predicted.  Such
factors include general economic and real estate market conditions, both
on a national basis and in those areas where the Partnership's real estate
investments are located, the availability and cost of borrowed funds, real
estate tax rates, operating expenses, energy costs, government regulations
and federal and state income tax laws.  The requirements for compliance
with federal, state and local regulations to date have not had an adverse
effect on the Partnership's operations, and no adverse effect therefrom is
anticipated in the future.

    The Partnership's investments in real estate are also subject to such
risks as (i) competition from existing and future projects held by other
owners in the locations of the Partnership's properties, (ii)  possible
reduction in rental income due to an inability to maintain high occupancy
levels, (iii) possible adverse changes in mortgage interest rates, (iv) 
possible adverse changes in general economic and local conditions, such as
competitive over-building, increases in unemployment, or adverse changes
in real estate zoning laws, (v) the possible future adoption of rent
control legislation which would not permit the full amount of increased
costs to be passed on to tenants in the form of rent increases, and (vi)
other circumstances over which the Partnership may have little or no
control.

    As of December 31, 1996, there were 26 full and part-time on-site
personnel employed by the Partnership.

ITEM 2.    PROPERTIES

    As of December 31, 1996, the Partnership had an aggregate of 1,256
apartment units.

    A summary of the Partnership's multi-family real estate investments is
presented below.  Schedule III included in Item 8 (Appendix A) to this
report contains additional detailed information with respect to individual
properties.

ITEM 5.    MARKET FOR THE REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER
           MATTERS

    The transfer of Units of Limited Partner Interest is subject to certain
limitations contained in the Partnership Agreement.  There is no public
market for the Units and it is not anticipated that any such public market
will develop.

    The number of Investor Limited Partners as of December 31, 1996 was
approximately 2,000.

    The Partnership made the following distributions to its Partners during
the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995:

</TABLE>

    The Partnership did not make any distributions during
1993.  Due to improvements in the operations of the properties and the
availability of cash flow, the General Partners reinstated distributions
in August, 1994, at a rate of $4.67 per Unit.  In 1995 and 1996, the
annual distribution rates were  increased to $28.00 and $37.33 per Unit,
respectively.  These semiannual distributions are expected to continue in
1997 at an annualized rate of $37.33 per Unit.  Additionally, the
Partnership made special distributions to the General Partners and
Investor Limited Partners during the fourth quarter of 1992 and the second
quarter of 1996 with the funds received from the sale of Lakeview Tower
Apartments in 1992.  Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, distributions
from capital transactions, such as the sale of Lakeview Tower, are
allocated 99% to Investor Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partners.

Item 8 (Appendix A) of this report.

Operating results for 1992 are not comparable to 1993 through 1996 because
Lakeview Tower was sold on August 28, 1992, Copper Creek was foreclosed upon
on March 3, 1992 and Walden Pond's debt was restructured February 28, 1992. 

Prior performance of the Partnership is not necessarily indicative of future
operations.

ITEM 7.    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITIONS AND
           RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations contains forward-looking statements including those concerning
Management's expectations regarding the future financial performance and
future events.  These forward-looking statements involve significant risk
and uncertainties, including those described herein.  Actual results may
differ materially from those anticipated by such forward-looking statements.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Partnership's ability to generate cash adequate to meet its needs is
dependent primarily upon the operations of its remaining real estate
investments.  Such ability would also be impacted by the future availability
of bank borrowings, and upon the future refinancing and sale of the
Partnership's real estate investments.  These sources of liquidity will be
used by the Partnership for payment of expenses related to real estate
operations, capital improvements, debt service and other expenses.  Cash
Flow, if any, as calculated under Section 8.2(a) of the Partnership
Agreement, will then be available for distribution to the partners.

    The Partnership refinanced Pavillion Apartments and Indian Run Apartments
at lower interest rates during 1994.  As a result of the lower rates, the
reduced mortgage payments have provided additional liquidity to the
Partnership.  This additional liquidity was used by the Partnership to
partially fund approximately $531,000 of capital improvements at the
properties in 1996 for appliances, carpeting, paving and other exterior
building improvements.  The Partnership expects to spend approximately
$1,492,000 for capital improvements in 1997.  These improvements consist of
internal and external enhancements which include the replacement of
appliances, carpeting and vinyl flooring at various properties as well as
extensive painting of the building exteriors at Walden Pond Apartments.

    Due to improvements in the operations of the properties and reduced debt
service, the Partnership had sufficient cash flow in 1994 to reinstate
distributions at a rate of $4.67 per Unit.  The distribution rate was
increased to $28.00 per Unit in 1995 and to $37.33 per Unit in 1996.  In
addition, the Partnership made a special distribution of $1,313,031 during
the second quarter of 1996 based on the remaining proceeds from the sale of
Lakeview Tower in 1992.  Distributions of net cash proceeds from a capital
transaction made by the Partnership are allocated in accordance with the
Partnership Agreement (as described in Note E to the consolidated financial
statements included in Item 8 (Appendix A) of this report).

Cash Flow

    Shown below is a calculation of Cash Flow, as defined by Section 8.2(a)
of the Partnership Agreement, for the year ended December 31, 1996.  The
General Partners provide certain of the information below to meet
requirements of the Partnership Agreement and because they believe that it
is an appropriate supplemental measure of operating performance.  However,
Cash Flow should not be considered by the reader as a substitute to net
income (loss), as an indicator of the Partnership's operating performance or
to cash flows as a measure of liquidity.

                                                          Rounded to $1,000

Cash Flow                                                    $1,179,000  

Operations                                                          

1996 compared to 1995

Cash Flow, before amounts released from working capital reserves, decreased
as a result of both increased capital improvement expenditures and a
decrease in net income in 1996, as an increase in expenses more than offset
an increase in revenue.  Increased rental rates at the Partnership's
properties were instituted at the end of 1995 and the beginning of 1996. 
This increase, as well as overall increased average occupancy rates, have
resulted in the increase in rental revenue in 1996 when compared to 1995. 
Other income decreased due to lower interest income earned on short-term
investments as average cash balances decreased when compared to 1995.  

Total expenses, including operating, maintenance and real estate taxes, have 
increased in 1996 as compared to 1995.  The rise in operating expense is
attributable to increases in payroll, utility, advertising and leasing
expenses.  Payroll was affected by a worker's compensation insurance refund
received by the Partnership's properties in 1995.  Additionally, severe
weather contributed to the rise in operating expense as utility expense
increased with higher consumption levels.  The additional consumption is
also a direct result of increased occupancy at Pavillion, Walden Pond and
Fenland Field as the Partnership's advertising and leasing efforts were
successful in 1996.  Maintenance expense increased due to external wall
repairs at Indian Run, paving, landscaping and stairway repairs at both
Indian Run and Walden Pond, and snow removal expenditures at Fenland Field. 
Real estate taxes increased due to increases in the assessed values of
Indian Run and Pavillion.  General and administrative expense decreased as a
result of costs incurred in 1995 associated with obtaining appraisals of the
Partnership's properties.

1995 compared to 1994

Cash Flow, before additions to working capital reserves, increased due to a
4% increase in rental revenues and a decrease in interest expense of
$168,000 as a result of the 1994 refinancings of Pavillion and Indian Run. 
The refinancings of Pavillion and Indian Run have provided additional
liquidity to the Partnership which assisted the funding of additional
capital improvements in 1995 and allowed the Partnership to command higher
rental rates in the properties' prospective markets. 

Other income increased due to an increase in interest income on cash and
cash equivalents as a result of higher average cash balances.

The Partnership realized a reduction in operating expense due to
management's efforts to reduce reimbursable costs and a decrease in payroll
as a result of a worker's compensation insurance refund received by the
Partnership's properties in 1995.  Real estate tax expense increased due to
an increase in the assessed value of Walden Pond.

General

In accordance with Financial Accounting Standard No. 121, "Accounting for
the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed
Of", which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995,
the Partnership has implemented policies and practices for assessing
impairment of its real estate assets.

The investments in properties are carried at cost less accumulated
depreciation unless the General Partners believe there is a significant
impairment in value, in which case a provision to write down investments in
properties to fair value will be charged against income.  At this time, the
General Partners do not believe that any assets of the Partnership are
significantly impaired.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
          

To the Partners of
Krupp Realty Limited Partnership-IV and Subsidiaries:

 We have audited the consolidated financial statements and the financial
statement schedule of Krupp Realty Limited Partnership-IV and Subsidiaries
(the "Partnership") listed in the index on page F-2 of this Form 10-K. 
These financial statements and financial statement schedule are the
responsibility of the Partnership's management.  Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements and financial statement
schedule based on our audits.

 We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free
of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating
the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits
provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Krupp
Realty Limited Partnership-IV and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1996 and
1995, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for
each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1996 in conformity

                         NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                                   
A.  Organization

    Krupp Realty Limited Partnership-IV ("KRLP-IV") was formed on December 1,
    1982 by filing a Certificate of Limited Partnership in The Commonwealth
    of Massachusetts.  KRLP-IV terminates on December 31, 2020, unless
    earlier terminated upon the sale of the last of KRLP-IV and Subsidiaries'
    properties or  the occurrence of certain other events as set forth in the
    Partnership Agreement.

    KRLP-IV issued all of the General Partner Interests to The Krupp
    Corporation, a Massachusetts corporation, and The Krupp Company Limited
    Partnership-II, a Massachusetts limited partnership, in exchange for
    capital contributions aggregating $1,000.  Except under certain limited
    circumstances upon termination of KRLP-IV, the General Partners are not
    required to make any additional capital contributions.  KRLP-IV also
    issued all of the Original Limited Partner Interests to The Krupp Company
    Limited Partnership-II in exchange for a capital contribution of $4,000. 
    The Original Limited Partner is not required to make any additional
    capital contributions to KRLP-IV.  On January 18, 1983, KRLP-IV commenced
    the offering of up to 30,000 Units of Investor Limited Partner Interests
    (the "Units").  As of March 31, 1983, KRLP-IV received subscriptions for
    all 30,000 Units at $1,000 per Unit and therefore, the public offering
    was successfully completed on that date.

    In 1990, the General Partners on behalf of KRLP-IV formed three limited
    partnerships:  Pavillion Partners, Ltd., Copper Creek Partners, Ltd. and
    Westbridge Partners, Ltd.  At the same time, the General Partners
    transferred ownership of Pavillion Apartments to Pavillion Partners,
    Ltd., Copper Creek Apartments to Copper Creek Partners, Ltd., and Walden
    Pond Apartments to Westbridge Partners, Ltd. in exchange for KRLP-IV's
    99% Limited Partner Interest in the new entities.  Westcop Corporation
    contributed a total of $11,216 in cash to the entities and is the General
    Partner in each, with a 1% interest.  On March 3, 1992, Copper Creek was
    foreclosed upon by the holder of the first and second mortgage notes
    pursuant to an agreement approved by the Bankruptcy Court.

    KRLP-IV, Pavillion Partners, Ltd., and Westbridge Partners, Ltd. are
    collectively known as Krupp Realty Limited Partnership-IV and
    Subsidiaries (collectively the "Partnership").

    As of December 31, 1996, the Partnership owns four multi-family apartment
    complexes.

B.  Significant Accounting Policies

    The Partnership uses the following accounting policies for financial
    reporting purposes, which may differ in certain respects from those used
    for federal income tax purposes (see Note G).

       Basis of Presentation

       The consolidated financial statements present the consolidated assets,
       liabilities and operations of Pavillion Partners, Ltd., Westbridge
       Partners, Ltd. and KRLP-IV (see Note A).  All intercompany balances
       and transactions have been eliminated.  At December 31, 1996 and 1995,
       a minority interest of $25,971 and $28,793, respectively, is included
       in prepaid and other assets. 

       Risks and Uncertainties
       
       The Partnership invests its cash primarily in deposits and money
       market funds with commercial banks.  The Partnership has not
       experienced any losses to date on its invested cash.

       The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
       accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
       and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and
       liabilities, contingent assets and liabilities and revenues and
       expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ
       from those estimates.

       Cash and Cash Equivalents

       The Partnership includes all short-term investments with maturities of
       three months or less from the date of acquisition in cash and cash
       equivalents.  The cash investments are recorded at cost, which
       approximates current market values.

       Rental Revenues

       Leases require the payment of base rent monthly in advance.  Rental
       revenues are recorded on the accrual basis.  
                                              
       Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

       In accordance with Financial Accounting Standard No. 121, "Accounting
       for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to
       Be Disposed Of", which is effective for fiscal years beginning after
       December 15, 1995, the Partnership has implemented policies and
       practices for assessing impairment of its real estate assets.

       The investments in properties are carried at cost less accumulated
       depreciation unless the General Partners believe there is a
       significant impairment in value, in which case a provision to write
       down investments in properties to fair value will be charged against
       income.  At this time, the General Partners do not believe that any
       assets of the Partnership are significantly impaired.

       Depreciation

       Depreciation is provided for by the use of the straight-line method
       over estimated useful lives of the related asset, as follows:

              Buildings and improvements           3 to 25 years
              Appliances, carpeting and equipment  3 to 5 years

       Deferred Expenses

       The Partnership amortizes the costs incurred in connection with the
       organization of its subsidiaries over a 5-year period using the
       straight-line method.  

       The Partnership amortizes the costs incurred to obtain the financing
       of Partnership's properties over the term of the related mortgage
       note, using the straight-line method.

       Income Taxes

       The Partnership is not liable for federal or state income taxes as
       Partnership's income or loss is allocated to the Partners for income
       tax purposes.  In the event that the Partnership's tax returns are
       examined by the Internal Revenue Service or state taxing authority and
       the examination results in a change in Partnership taxable income or
       loss, such change will be reported to the Partners.

       The non-recourse mortgage note is payable, based on a 20-year
       amortization, in equal monthly installments of principal and interest
       of $42,167.  At maturity, all unpaid principal ($3,824,206) and any
       accrued and unpaid interest is due.  The note may not be prepaid prior
       to June 1, 1998 and thereafter, may be prepaid subject to certain
       prepayment premiums.  The mortgage note is collateralized by the
       property.

       Since the mortgage note cannot be prepaid prior to June 1, 1998, the
       fair market value cannot be determined.
       
       Indian Run Apartments
    
       Effective October 26, 1994, the Partnership refinanced Indian Run's
       first mortgage note in the amount of $2,747,000.  The mortgage note is
       payable, based on a 25-year amortization, in equal monthly
       installments of principal and interest of $24,021.  At maturity, all
       unpaid principal ($2,298,949) and any accrued and unpaid interest is
       due.  The note may be prepaid at any time, subject to certain
       prepayment premiums.

       Based on the borrowing rates currently available to the Partnership
       for bank loans with similar terms and average maturities, the fair
       value of long-term debt is approximately $3,200,000 and 3,300,000 for
       the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
                                                            
    Walden Pond Apartments

           On February 28, 1992, the prior wrap-around mortgage note was
           modified in bankruptcy court.  The modified principal balance of
           $5,500,000, which has a stated rate of 9.5%, is being amortized
           over a 30-year period and requires monthly payments of $46,247. 
           For financial reporting purposes, generally accepted accounting
           principles required the Partnership to increase the outstanding
           principal balance of the mortgage to the sum of the future cash
           flow payments required under the terms of the mortgage, including a
           final payment on February 28, 1999 of approximately $5,200,000. 
           All cash payments made subsequent to the restructure are recorded
           as a reduction of the principal balance with no interest expense
           recognized by the Partnership. 

           Since the mortgage note cannot be prepaid prior to March 1, 1997,
           the fair market value cannot be determined.

       Pavillion Apartments

       Effective April 13, 1994, the Partnership refinanced Pavillion's first
       mortgage note in the amount of $7,000,000.  The Partnership paid a
       $76,188 prepayment penalty to the previous mortgage holder.  The
       mortgage note is payable, based on a 30-year amortization, in equal
       monthly installments of principal and interest of $57,587.  At
       maturity, all unpaid principal ($6,580,326) and any accrued and unpaid
       interest is due.  The note may not be prepaid until October 13, 1997
       and thereafter, may be prepaid subject to certain prepayment premiums.

       Since the mortgage note cannot be prepaid until October 13, 1997, the
       fair market value cannot be determined.

    The aggregate scheduled principal amounts of long-term borrowings due
    during   the five years ending December 31, 2001 are $762,942, $783,115,
    $5,521,757, $4,007,863 and 6,657,438, respectively.

    The Partnership paid interest of $1,294,247, $1,311,140 and $1,376,867
    during the years ended December 31, 1996, 1995 and 1994, respectively.

E.  Partners' Equity (Deficit)

    Under the terms of the Partnership Agreement, profits and losses from 
    operations are allocated 95% to the Investor Limited Partners, 4% to the
    Original Limited Partner and 1% to the General Partners until such time
    that the Investor Limited Partners have received a return of their total
    invested capital plus a 9% per annum cumulative return thereon.  There-
    after, profits and losses will be allocated 65% to the Investor Limited
    Partners, 28% to the Original Limited Partner and 7% to the General
    Partners.
  
    In accordance with the Partnership Agreement, distributions are generally
    made on the same basis as the allocations of profits and losses described
    above.  Upon the occurrence of a capital transaction, as defined in the
    Partnership Agreement, proceeds will be applied to the payment of all
    debts and liabilities of the Partnership then due and then fund any
    reserves for contingent liabilities.  Remaining net cash proceeds will
    then be distributed 99% to the Invested Limited Partners until they have
    received a return of their total invested capital and 1% to the General
    Partners, thereafter net cash proceeds will be distributed in accordance
    with the Partnership Agreement. 

    As of December 31, 1996, the following cumulative partner contributions
    and allocations have been made since inception of KRLP-IV:

F.  Related Party Transactions

    Commencing with the date of acquisition of the Partnership's properties,
    the Partnership entered into agreements under which property management
    fees are paid to an affiliate of the General Partners for services as
    management agent.  Such agreements provide for management fees payable
    monthly at a rate of 5% of the gross receipts from residential properties
    under management.  The Partnership also reimburses affiliates of the
    General Partners for certain expenses incurred in the operation of the
    Partnership and its properties including accounting, computer, insurance,
    travel, legal, payroll; and with the preparation and mailing of reports
    and other communications to the Limited Partners.
