Because this penthouse is genuinely exceptional, and I don't use that word lightly. From the moment you step into the foyer - generous, flooded with natural light from an overhead skylight - you understand that whoever built this place was playing a different game entirely. Every inch was thought through. The built-in storage alone would make a Swiss watchmaker weep with joy. Head north and you're in an oversized living and dining room anchored by a wall of windows that pulls mature garden greenery directly into your sightline. And before you say "oh, so it's blocked by trees" - no. The vegetation frames the view without stealing it. You get the green AND the sky. The living room also sits under a massive 10x10 skylight that floods the space with so much natural light you'll start to question whether you actually need electricity. And then there's the wood-burning fireplace. Before you get too comfortable with that detail, know that there are two more where that came from. Three wood-burning fireplaces in a single Manhattan apartment. In 25 years of selling real estate I have never encountered anything like it, and I suspect you haven't either. The north terrace is exactly what a private outdoor space should be - intimate, beautifully framed by mature plantings, and anchored by a stunning stone wall that doubles, should the mood strike, as a backdrop for an outdoor movie screen. Family dinners on a Tuesday evening. The city feels very far away. The south terrace is an entirely different proposition. This is where you entertain. Directly connected to the kitchen and a dedicated barbecue area anchored by a 48-inch Kalamazoo grill that is, frankly, obscene in the best possible way. The flow from kitchen to laundry to barbecue to terrace is seamless - whoever's cooking never misses the party. And the party, judging by the space available, could be considerable. What ties all of it together is the greenery. In every direction, from every room, in every season, you are looking at mature trees and lush landscaping that took decades to grow and cannot be replicated. It makes this home as pleasant on a grey February morning as on a perfect June evening. The two bedrooms - a 12'8" x 18'9" primary and a 12'4" x 17'7" second - each have direct terrace access, those same garden views, and their own wood-burning fireplace. Let that sink in. Both bedrooms. Their own fireplaces. In a penthouse with ceilings up to 11 feet. I have been doing this for 25 years and I have never seen this combination. It is, without exaggeration, one of a kind. The primary is smartly laid out with a double vanity separated from the wet area and two walk-in closets. The kitchen is half-open, overlooks the garden, and sits next to a full laundry room with a soapstone slop sink - because a beautiful home still needs to function like one. Throughout the apartment, 11-zone built-in speakers let every room and terrace section control its own volume and source. This home was rebuilt from a bare canvas by owners with strong opinions, excellent taste, and zero interest in cutting corners. The result is something you feel the moment you walk in and can't quite shake after you leave. Which is usually how it goes with the right one. ## Property Details - **Property Type**: Co-op - **Beds**: 2 - **Baths**: 2 - **Rooms**: 7 - **Stories**: 10 - **Year Built**: 1928 - **Common Charges**: $5,263 / Monthly - **Listed On**: Sep 8, 2026 - **Days on Market**: 1 Days ### Residence Features - Building Other - Washer Hookup - In Unit - Building Courtyard - Private Outdoor Space Over 60 Sqft - High Ceilings - Dishwasher - City ## Sales Evidence ### Recent closed sales 14 apartments at 205 East 69th Street have recorded sales since September 2021, the most recent for $740,000 in August 2026.

Those are excluded from the benchmark below. ### How this price compares The median closed price for comparable co-op two-bedroom sales in Lenox Hill is $1,400,000, based on 324 sales between September 2024 and July 2026. This home is asking $5,999,000, $4,599,000 above that median. The middle half of those sales closed between $1,050,000 and $1,800,000. - **Median closed price**: $1,400,000 - **Middle half**: $1,050,000 – $1,800,000 - **Based on**: 324 co-op two-bedroom sales in Lenox Hill - **Period**: September 2024 – July 2026 Square footage is recorded for only 99 of these 324 sales (31%), so no price per square foot is shown for this group. Co-op sales rarely carry a floor area, and a figure drawn from a handful of them would not describe the rest. Across the 305 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 96.2% of what it originally asked. 66% of them closed below the original ask. This building has not had enough comparable sales of its own in the period to support a median, so the benchmark is drawn from Lenox Hill instead. ### How these sales were negotiated - **Sold vs original ask**: 96.2% of the original ask - **Closed below ask**: 66% of 305 sales - **Listed → in contract**: 81 days (about 12 weeks) - **In contract → closed**: 92 days (about 13 weeks) Across the 305 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 96.2% of what it originally asked. 66% of them closed below the original ask. Half of these homes were in contract within 81 days (about 12 weeks) of coming to market, based on the 304 with a recorded listing date. Once a deal was agreed, closing took a further 92 days (about 13 weeks), based on the 308 with both dates recorded. A co-op board package and its interview account for much of that. These are two separate periods measured on different clocks — time to find a buyer, and time from agreed deal to closing. They are medians of different sets of sales and do not add together into a single "days on market" figure. Based on 324 co-op two-bedroom sales in Lenox Hill, September 2024 – July 2026. Each figure counts only the sales that recorded the dates it needs, which is why the denominators differ. ### Price trend Median sold price for co-op two-bedroom sales in Lenox Hill, 2016 to 2026. The series is held to one bedroom count and one ownership type for the same reason: an unfiltered median tracks which apartments sold, not what they were worth. | Year | Median sold price | Sales | | --- | --- | --- | | 2016 | $1,412,500 | 36 | | 2017 | $1,440,000 | 136 | | 2018 | $1,427,500 | 126 | | 2019 | $1,400,000 | 107 | | 2020 | $1,305,000 | 77 | | 2021 | $1,300,000 | 245 | | 2022 | $1,350,000 | 208 | | 2023 | $1,390,000 | 152 | | 2024 | $1,350,000 | 163 | | 2025 | $1,400,000 | 182 | | 2026 | $1,487,500 | 82 | This building does not have enough sales with a recorded floor area to chart its own price per square foot, which is usual for a co-op. The series above follows comparable homes across Lenox Hill instead. Sale prices are the consideration recorded with the City in ACRIS, and each sale is dated by the day the City recorded it. A closing date reported to the MLS typically falls one to two weeks earlier. Recorded sales describe what has already happened and are not an appraisal, a valuation, or an estimate of what this home will sell for.
