The open kitchen is both handsome and functional, featuring a Sub-Zero refrigerator, Bertazzoni range, stainless steel dishwasher, wood cabinetry, marble countertops and exposed brick. At its center is a generous breakfast bar that becomes part of the home's rhythm: coffee in the morning, preparing dinner, a quick bite, or friends pulling up a stool while you cook. It’s a kitchen designed not just to look good, but to actually be lived in. It opens directly into an oversized living room framed by a wall of windows, with plenty of room for a proper dining table, a generous living area and the kind of entertaining that starts with dinner and a glass of red and somehow goes much later. There is also more than enough space to create a comfortable work-from-home setup without sacrificing the room itself. Tucked quietly in the back of the apartment, the bedroom enjoys open views and multiple exposures. Just off the bedroom, a space currently set up as a nursery gives the apartment unusual flexibility. Keep it as a nursery, turn it into a home office, or create the large walk-in dressing room you’ve always wanted. The smartly appointed bathroom is finished in floor-to-ceiling white marble with Kohler fixtures. Hardwood plank floors, custom closets and smart built-ins complete the home. Washer/dryers are permitted with board approval. What makes 16H special isn’t any one feature. It’s how well everything works together: the size, the layout, the finishes, the functionality, the views and enough space to work, host, cook, unwind and actually live. East View House is a full-service Upper East Side cooperative with exceptional staff, including a 24-hour doorman and live-in resident manager. The building also has a garage and is conveniently located one block from the Second Avenue Subway, with additional subway options nearby. Whether you’re heading downtown, across town or just about anywhere else in the city, getting around is remarkably easy. Some photos are virtually staged for illustrative purposes. Pied-à-terres are ok, up to 75% financing allowed and dogs under 25 lbs. are permitted. There is a capital assessment of 548.06 through 2027 ## Property Details - **Property Type**: Co-op - **Beds**: 1 - **Baths**: 1 - **Rooms**: 3 - **Sqft**: 980 sqft - **Stories**: 20 - **Year Built**: 1961 - **Price per Sqft**: $980 - **Common Charges**: $2,338.4 / Monthly - **Listed On**: Sep 9, 2026 - **Days on Market**: 2 Days ### Residence Features - Building Washer Dryer Install Allowed - Common On Floor - Common Area - Garage - Breakfast Bar - Dishwasher - Hardwood - City ### Building Amenities - Garage ## Sales Evidence ### Recent closed sales 17 apartments at 399 East 72nd Street have recorded sales since September 2021, the most recent for $1,550,000 in August 2026.

Those are excluded from the benchmark below. ### How this price compares The median closed price for comparable one-bedroom sales at 399 East 72nd Street is $772,500, based on 4 sales between September 2021 and August 2025. This home is asking $960,000, $187,500 above that median. The middle half of those sales closed between $702,500 and $831,250. - **Median closed price**: $772,500 - **Middle half**: $702,500 – $831,250 - **Based on**: 4 one-bedroom sales at 399 East 72nd Street - **Period**: September 2021 – August 2025 Square footage is recorded for only 1 of these 4 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. Across the 3 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 96.4% of what it originally asked. 100% of them closed below the original ask. ### How these sales were negotiated - **Sold vs original ask**: 96.4% of the original ask - **Closed below ask**: 100% of 3 sales - **Listed → in contract**: 56 days (about 8 weeks) - **In contract → closed**: 127 days (about 18 weeks) Across the 3 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 96.4% of what it originally asked. 100% of them closed below the original ask. Half of these homes were in contract within 56 days (about 8 weeks) of coming to market, based on the 3 with a recorded listing date. Once a deal was agreed, closing took a further 127 days (about 18 weeks), based on the 3 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 4 one-bedroom sales at 399 East 72nd Street, September 2021 – August 2025. 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.
