Welcome to the penthouse (floors 5&6) at 214 East 70th Street, a meticulously crafted, light-filled three-bedroom, three-bathroom duplex penthouse atop an intimate boutique condominium with just four residences. Occupying the top two floors of a striking 28-foot-wide townhouse condominium, this exceptional Upper East Side home offers a rare blend of scale, privacy, and expansive outdoor living. Spanning approximately 2,000 interior square feet across the fifth and sixth floors of the six-story building, the residence is defined by soaring ceilings exceeding 11 feet and beautiful Northern and Southern exposures, filling the home with natural light throughout the day.

This unique layout allows for seamless flow, natural light from multiple exposures, and distinct zones for relaxing, dining, and entertaining. A retractable awning and custom-built charcoal grill further enhance the outdoor living experience. The interiors showcase remarkable craftsmanship and bespoke finishes throughout. Solid American walnut floors with six-inch-wide planks run across the residence, recently refinished to enhance the warmth and richness of the wood. A dramatic custom stainless steel staircase, designed by a Brooklyn-based artist, serves as a sculptural focal point, complemented by a sleek glass wall feature that adds architectural depth and sophistication. The Italian Maestro kitchen is outfitted with premium appliances including Sub-Zero refrigeration, a Wolf oven and cooktop, a Miele dishwasher, and a built-in Miele espresso system.

This home is asking $6,360,000, $2,497,500 above that median. The middle half of those sales closed between $2,737,500 and $4,850,000. - **Median closed price**: $3,862,500 - **Middle half**: $2,737,500 – $4,850,000 - **Based on**: 100 condo three-bedroom sales in Lenox Hill - **Period**: September 2024 – June 2026 - **Median $/ft²**: $1,862/ft² Across the 88 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 96.5% of what it originally asked. 67% 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**: 96.5% of the original ask - **Closed below ask**: 67% of 88 sales - **Listed → in contract**: 94 days (about 13 weeks) - **In contract → closed**: 58 days (about 8 weeks) Across the 88 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 96.5% of what it originally asked. 67% of them closed below the original ask. Half of these homes were in contract within 94 days (about 13 weeks) of coming to market, based on the 90 with a recorded listing date. Once a deal was agreed, closing took a further 58 days (about 8 weeks), based on the 86 with both dates recorded. 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 100 condo three-bedroom sales in Lenox Hill, September 2024 – June 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 condo and house three-bedroom sales in Lenox Hill, 2017 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 | | --- | --- | --- | | 2017 | $3,887,500 | 46 | | 2018 | $2,825,000 | 30 | | 2019 | $2,990,000 | 33 | | 2020 | $2,835,000 | 21 | | 2021 | $2,890,000 | 57 | | 2022 | $3,525,000 | 57 | | 2023 | $3,900,000 | 35 | | 2024 | $2,975,000 | 44 | | 2025 | $3,911,250 | 72 | | 2026 | $4,042,500 | 18 | 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.
