Encompassing approximately 2,100 square feet, this classic seven-room pre-war residence with 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms possesses the sublime architectural bones, generous scale, and pedigree that define Manhattan luxury. With only two apartments per floor, a shared vestibule opens directly into a gracious, square central foyer—the quintessential hallmark of distinguished pre-war design. The expansive, nearly 18-by-23-foot living room unfolds off the entry with effortless grace, offering sublime north-facing vistas over historic townhouses and leafy 72nd Street through large, light-filled windows. Designed for both intimate evenings and grand-scale entertaining, the floor plan flows seamlessly into a stately formal dining room measuring approximately 13 by 20 feet. Flanked by the large original butler's pantry, this impressive salon accommodates seated dinner parties for eight to twelve guests. Uniquely, the dining room features two large windows fronting directly onto 72nd Street rather than an interior courtyard, a rare distinction for a classic pre-war building. Throughout the home, details include rich hardwood floors, soaring ceiling heights in excess of nine feet, and a classic wood-burning fireplace. The home’s culinary quarters are anchored by a massive, windowed eat-in kitchen with generous room for casual dining, awaiting a bespoke transformation to match the most exacting contemporary tastes. Adjacent to the kitchen, the former staff room (or fourth bedroom) and bath have been thoughtfully adapted into an office and laundry room featuring an in-unit washer and dryer, with the flexibility to easily restore the original configuration if desired. The private eastern wing is accessed via a wide, serene hallway, ensuring a distinct separation of space. The corner primary suite spans an impressive 400 square feet, enjoying dual north and south exposures, abundant bespoke closet potential, and a spacious windowed en-suite bath. A generously proportioned second bedroom similarly offers northern tree-lined views, ample closet capacity, and its own en-suite bath. A quiet third bedroom—or sophisticated wood-paneled den—faces south, complemented by a well-positioned bathroom that doubles seamlessly as an elegant guest powder room. Elevating this offering to a level of true distinction, the residence includes a highly coveted private staff room (approximately 110 square feet with brilliant southern light) located just down the hall on the same floor—ideal for live-in personnel, a private executive home office, or exceptional ancillary storage. Please note that applications will be evaluated on the basis of all cash purchase. If acceptable on an all cash basis, the Board will consider financing up to 50% of the purchase price, based on review of individual qualifications. 2% flip tax paid by buyer. Pets are welcome. Situated in the prestigious Lenox Hill neighborhood of Manhattan's Upper East Side, this address offers residents immediate proximity to renowned art institutions, world-class dining, and elite cultural landmarks. The location provides a refined residential ambiance complemented by convenient access to high-end boutiques along the avenues and peaceful proximity to the East River and Parks. Excellent neighborhood connectivity is assured with seamless crosstown bus service and nearby subway lines linking the address to the rest of the city. A masterpiece of classic proportions awaiting a discerning custom renovation, this residence captures the very essence of timeless prestige, scarcity, and understated glamour in prime Manhattan. ## Property Details - **Property Type**: Co-op - **Beds**: 3 - **Total Baths**: 4 - **Rooms**: 7 - **Sqft**: 2,100 sqft - **Stories**: 16 - **Year Built**: 1930 - **Price per Sqft**: $1,000 - **Maintenance**: $5,742 / Monthly - **Monthly Taxes**: Incl. in maintenance - **Listed On**: Oct 22, 2026 - **Days on Market**: 22 Days ### Residence Features - Building Washer Dryer Install Allowed - Common On Floor - Common Area - In Unit - Building Courtyard - Building Garden - Dryer - Washer - Hardwood - City ## Estimated Monthly Payment **$16,361 / month**, assuming a 20% down payment ($420,000), a 6.5% interest rate and a 30-year term.

Those are excluded from the benchmark below. ### How this price compares - **This home**: $2,100,000 - **Median sold price**: $2,599,500 - **Difference**: -$499,500 (-19.2%) - **This home, $/ft²**: $1,000 - **Comparable sales**: 164 - **Sales from**: November 2024 – September 2026 - **Middle half of those sales**: $1,818,750 – $3,333,750 Based on co-op three-bedroom sales in Lenox Hill. Square footage is recorded for only 46 of these 164 sales (28%), 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. 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 - **Sale-to-list price**: 94.8% (153 sales) - **Sold below asking**: 73% (153 sales) - **Typical time to find a buyer**: 68 days (152 sales) - **Typical time to close**: 100 days (156 sales) Based on co-op three-bedroom sales in Lenox Hill with the required listing and closing data. Sample sizes vary by metric. 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. ### Price trend Median sale price, co-op three-bedroom sales in Lenox Hill | Year | Median sold price | Sales | | --- | --- | --- | | 2017 | $2,500,000 | 58 | | 2018 | $2,572,500 | 54 | | 2019 | $2,375,000 | 79 | | 2020 | $2,135,000 | 37 | | 2021 | $2,202,500 | 96 | | 2022 | $2,475,000 | 108 | | 2023 | $2,250,000 | 90 | | 2024 | $2,450,000 | 73 | | 2025 | $2,550,000 | 89 | | 2026 YTD | $2,750,000 | 69 | Based on recorded co-op three-bedroom sales in Lenox Hill. 2026 is year-to-date. Sales data through September 2026. 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.
