## Property Overview

??IT JUST KEEPS GETTING BETTER
TIMELESS, RENOVATED, STYLISH, JUMBO PRE-WAR HOME
SUPREME LOCATION - GORGEOUS BUILDING w/GARDEN ON COVETED BLOCK
PIED À TERRE PERFECTION
Some owners just get it.   They know how to strike the perfect balance of classic and current — pretty and practical.  By tastefully and mindfully upgrading and improving this well-scaled, townhouse-like residence, a timeless home with a newfound relevance has been created.
Just like the neighborhood that houses this stunning sprawler, this home is anchored in its past, but picture perfect, poised and ready for its 21 Century self.  Sweetly perched in the quiet, bright side of its treasured building, this awesome address is moments away from the prized Q train and surrounded by the best cafes and merchants that have blossomed nearby since the neighborhood was refreshed and re-invented.  Rare is it that a residence is renovated at the same time that its neighborhood was renovated.  This home benefits beautifully from both new identities.
The foyer gallery is a sizable, welcoming space that offers ample wall space for art, three oversized closets, and sets the house-like tone of this well-planned, stretch-out, feel-good residence.  With high ceilings above and handsome hardwood underfoot, the living room is substantial and elegant — a comfortable core to this cheerful home — enjoying the bright benefits from its two, big, South-facing windows and a dining alcove. Served beautifully by a built-in bar area (with a wine fridge), and a fully renovated, windowed kitchen (with ample stone counters and cabinet space and premium stainless appliances), entertaining and easy-living abound.  Graciously situated on the other side of this residence is the king-sized bedroom.  South-facing, and with room enough for a sitting area, the big bedroom is quiet and bright, offers good closet space, and is served by an attractive, windowed, marble bath.
This standout residence has a location that truly comes with bragging rights:   One block away is the Q train, and nearby is the 6 train. East 71st Street is the quintessential Upper Eastside block — leafy, lovely, and graced with a sweet architectural aesthetic. Most every area cultural, dining, shopping, entertainment, and fitness destination are close by, and this winsome home’s live-in Super runs a tight ship.  Packages are handled expertly, the good looking lobby and halls are on point, and the building garden is a lovely retreat.  With a bike room, central laundry, and storage, life here is well-run, easy, convenient, and fun.
Once in a rare while, a residence and a location come into their own together — and at the same time.  For this home, and this neighborhood, that perfect time is right now.
(Pied a terre buyers welcome. CATS permitted — dogs not welcome — sorry Rover…)

## Sales Evidence

### Recent closed sales

11 apartments at 230 East 71st Street have recorded sales since September 2021, the most recent for $670,000 in September 2023. Prices are the figures recorded with the City, not asking prices.

| Unit | Beds | Sq Ft | Sold Price | $/ft² | Sold | Source |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| A (Apartment) | 2 | 970 | $670,000 | $691/ft² | September 29, 2023 | City record · MLS |
| 6-A (Apartment) | 1 | — | $625,000 | — | August 2, 2023 | City record · MLS |
| 2F (Apartment) | — | — | $800,000 | — | June 15, 2023 | City record |
| 3-C (Apartment) | 1 | — | $580,000 | — | October 25, 2022 | City record · MLS |
| 2A (Apartment) | 1 | 650 | $515,000 | $792/ft² | October 18, 2022 | City record |
| 4-E (Apartment) | 1 | — | $580,000 | — | September 28, 2022 | City record · MLS |
| 3E (Apartment) | 1 | — | $570,000 | — | April 12, 2022 | City record · MLS |
| 6A (Apartment) | 1 | 700 | $645,000 | $921/ft² | April 1, 2022 | City record |
| 6-A (Apartment) | 1 | — | $645,000 | — | April 1, 2022 | City record · MLS |
| 5I (Apartment) | — | — | $945,000 | — | November 17, 2021 | City record |
| 2-J (Apartment) | 1 | — | $550,000 | — | November 12, 2021 | City record · MLS |

Every row is a recorded transaction, including ancillary spaces such as storage and staff rooms where they were sold separately. Those are excluded from the benchmark below.

### How this price compares

The median closed price for comparable one-bedroom sales at 230 East 71st Street is $580,000, based on 8 sales between November 2021 and August 2023. This home is asking $599,000, $19,000 above that median. The middle half of those sales closed between $565,000 and $630,000.

- **Median closed price**: $580,000
- **Middle half**: $565,000 – $630,000
- **Based on**: 8 one-bedroom sales at 230 East 71st Street
- **Period**: November 2021 – August 2023

Square footage is recorded for only 2 of these 8 sales (25%), 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.

### How these sales were negotiated

- **Listed → in contract**: 77 days (about 11 weeks)
- **In contract → closed**: 111 days (about 16 weeks)

Half of these homes were in contract within 77 days (about 11 weeks) of coming to market, based on the 5 with a recorded listing date.

Once a deal was agreed, closing took a further 111 days (about 16 weeks), based on the 5 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 8 one-bedroom sales at 230 East 71st Street, November 2021 – August 2023. 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 one-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 | $695,000 | 39 |
| 2017 | $717,000 | 165 |
| 2018 | $728,750 | 152 |
| 2019 | $699,000 | 145 |
| 2020 | $665,000 | 109 |
| 2021 | $682,500 | 234 |
| 2022 | $718,000 | 229 |
| 2023 | $675,000 | 163 |
| 2024 | $675,000 | 169 |
| 2025 | $675,000 | 174 |
| 2026 | $652,966 | 90 |

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.

## Property Taxes

This apartment is part of a co-op that is taxed as one lot shared across 60 apartments. The corporation’s 2026 property tax bill was $637,256 for the whole building. Shareholders cover it through their monthly maintenance rather than a separate bill for this unit.
