The expansive living and dining areas flow seamlessly together, equally suited to everyday living and gracious entertaining. At the heart of the living room, a functioning wood-burning fireplace, with wood supplied by the building, provides warmth and the kind of character that simply cannot be manufactured.

Renovated Interiors

The kitchen has been tastefully updated, and includes a wet bar area, and the bathrooms have been recently renovated with marble and clean, contemporary fixtures,  inclusive of new underfloor plumbing,  ensuring that the bones of the home are as sound as its aesthetic. An in-unit washer and dryer rounds out the practical conveniences expected by today’s discerning buyer.

Storage & Flexibility

A private storage unit in the basement transfers with the apartment, providing valuable additional space for a variety of storage needs.

The Building

520 East 86th Street is a distinguished full-service cooperative offering a full-time doorman, live-in resident manager, fitness center, on-site laundry, and bike storage.

## Sales Evidence

### Recent closed sales

7 apartments at 520 East 86th Street have recorded sales since September 2021, the most recent for $1,999,999 in August 2026. Prices are the figures recorded with the City, not asking prices.

| Unit | Beds | Sold Price | Sold | Source |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 9B (Apartment) | 3 | $1,999,999 | August 13, 2026 | MLS |
| 1/2C (Apartment) | 3 | $1,850,000 | December 2, 2025 | MLS |
| 2D (Apartment) | 2 | $875,000 | December 16, 2024 | City record · MLS |
| 15C (Apartment) | 4 | $2,925,000 | August 9, 2024 | City record · MLS |
| 2-C (Duplex) | 3 | $2,450,000 | February 9, 2023 | MLS |
| 12C (Apartment) | 4 | $2,450,000 | January 25, 2023 | City record · MLS |
| 14A (Apartment) | 4 | $4,200,000 | December 17, 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 three-bedroom sales at 520 East 86th Street is $1,999,999, based on 3 sales between February 2023 and August 2026. This home is asking exactly that figure. The middle half of those sales closed between $1,925,000 and $2,225,000.

- **Median closed price**: $1,999,999
- **Middle half**: $1,925,000 – $2,225,000
- **Based on**: 3 three-bedroom sales at 520 East 86th Street
- **Period**: February 2023 – August 2026

Square footage is recorded for only 0 of these 3 sales (0%), 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**: 193 days (about 28 weeks)

Half of these homes were in contract within 193 days (about 28 weeks) of coming to market, based on the 3 with a recorded listing date.

Based on 3 three-bedroom sales at 520 East 86th Street, February 2023 – August 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 three-bedroom sales in Upper East Side, 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 | $2,990,000 | 37 |
| 2018 | $2,250,000 | 40 |
| 2019 | $2,089,500 | 36 |
| 2020 | $1,985,000 | 27 |
| 2021 | $2,003,666 | 59 |
| 2022 | $2,120,000 | 75 |
| 2023 | $2,100,000 | 45 |
| 2024 | $2,125,000 | 38 |
| 2025 | $2,237,500 | 51 |
| 2026 | $3,060,000 | 24 |

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 Upper East Side 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.
