## Property Overview

A rare opportunity to own a spectacular, newly renovated residence in one of New York City's most distinguished buildings. This recently gut-renovated three-bedroom residence offers sweeping Manhattan skyline views, with no detail overlooked. A gracious herringbone-floored gallery leads into an open living and dining space where oversized windows and a bay window alcove frame the city as a living backdrop, while clean sightlines and considered wall space create a natural gallery for art throughout — all complemented by a rare, spacious private terrace, ideal for entertaining or quiet mornings above the city.

The elegant windowed chef's kitchen is outfitted with a Sub-Zero refrigerator, Wolf range and wall oven, custom  cabinetry with designer brass hardware, and dramatic Patagonia quartzite backsplashes and counters. A spacious discreet in-unit washer/dryer suite finished with matching millwork is conveniently located off the kitchen.

The primary suite is a true retreat, accessed via a hallway lined with custom built-in wardrobes and drawers. The windowed en-suite bath features a custom vanity, oversized glass-enclosed walk-in shower, and mosaic-tiled floors, all finished in a soft, luminous palette. A second bedroom offers its own well-appointed windowed bath with a soaking tub, while a third bedroom doubles beautifully as a den or home office with custom built-ins. Throughout, all-new systems, gallery-caliber lighting, unique designer fixtures, and bespoke finishes carry a cohesive, elevated sensibility.
Additional highlights include 10-foot ceilings, abundant closet space, and a dedicated storage unit.

The Chatham is one of the Upper East Side's premier full-service condos, offering white-glove doorman service, a live-in superintendent, a state-of-the-art fitness center, and an on-site parking garage. Designed by renowned architect Robert A. M. Stern, this coveted Lenox Hill address is just moments from Madison Avenue shopping, Central Park, and the neighborhood's finest dining.

### How this price compares

The median closed price for comparable three-bedroom sales at The Chatham is $5,675,000, based on 6 sales between November 2021 and July 2024. This home is asking $6,200,000, $525,000 above that median. The middle half of those sales closed between $5,512,500 and $6,175,000.

- **Median closed price**: $5,675,000
- **Middle half**: $5,512,500 – $6,175,000
- **Based on**: 6 three-bedroom sales at The Chatham
- **Period**: November 2021 – July 2024
- **Median $/ft²**: $2,598/ft²

Across the 6 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 91.9% of what it originally asked. 83% of them closed below the original ask.

### How these sales were negotiated

- **Sold vs original ask**: 91.9% of the original ask
- **Closed below ask**: 83% of 6 sales
- **Listed → in contract**: 109 days (about 16 weeks)
- **In contract → closed**: 50 days (about 7 weeks)

Across the 6 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 91.9% of what it originally asked. 83% of them closed below the original ask.

Half of these homes were in contract within 109 days (about 16 weeks) of coming to market, based on the 6 with a recorded listing date.

Once a deal was agreed, closing took a further 50 days (about 7 weeks), based on the 6 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 6 three-bedroom sales at The Chatham, November 2021 – July 2024. Each figure counts only the sales that recorded the dates it needs, which is why the denominators differ.

### Price trend

Median price per square foot for sales at The Chatham, 2017 to 2024. Price per square foot is used rather than sale price so the line follows the market rather than whichever apartments happened to change hands that year.

| Year | Median $/ft² | Sales |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 2017 | $2,122/ft² | 7 |
| 2019 | $2,309/ft² | 6 |
| 2020 | $1,838/ft² | 5 |
| 2021 | $2,431/ft² | 6 |
| 2023 | $2,367/ft² | 4 (thin) |
| 2024 | $2,388/ft² | 5 |

Years marked "thin" rest on fewer than 5 sales, where a single unusual apartment moves the median a long way. Read those points as the small samples they are rather than as the market turning.

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.

The City has not published the official FY2026/27 and FY2025/26 tax rates yet. We calculated the tax for those years using the prior year’s rate, so treat them as an estimate rather than a figure the City has adopted. Every rate without the Estimated marker is the published one.

Tax Assessment is the assessed value on the City’s roll, and it is the figure other listing sites publish. It is not what the bill is calculated on. New York phases assessment changes in gradually for some tax classes, so the City bills the Billable Value shown beside it, less any exemption the owner holds. It usually trails the assessment, and it can sit above it for a few years after an assessment falls.

Figures are the New York City Department of Finance assessment roll for tax lot 1014001060. Assessed and billable values are determined by the City for tax purposes and are not an appraisal or an estimate of market value. Tax classes and rates are set annually and can change.
