## Property Overview

Located on one of the Upper East Side's most historic and pristine townhouse blocks, 232 East 68th Street is a beautifully appointed, 18ft wide, two-family townhouse featuring a gated arrival and brand-new facade. Offering over 6,000 square feet of move-in condition interior space plus 1,800 square feet of exterior, accessible by three separate entrances, the home is as versatile as it is distinguished - currently configured as an owner's triplex plus a rental duplex above yet easily reimagined as a magnificent single-family residence or community facility property.
The owner's triplex residence is anchored by a dramatic south-facing formal living room with floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors that open directly onto a sun-drenched, private garden - a true urban sanctuary. A formal dining room with a wood-burning fireplace and custom built-ins sets the stage for elegant entertaining, while a chef's kitchen features a breakfast bar and premium appliances including a Viking four-burner range, Bosch dishwasher, and Sub-Zero refrigerator. The lower level offers a flexible recreation room nearly 60 ft in length with separate street entrance and natural light from a skylight above - ideal for a home workspace or low-traffic professional use, and an excellent fit for an architect, designer, therapist, or practitioner who values the privacy of incoming and outgoing guests. A dedicated laundry room, wine storage, and extensive built-in storage complete this level. Central air with multi-zones, elegant hardwood floors, and extensive custom storage exist throughout the home.
Above the main living/dining floor, the upper story of the owner's triplex boasts 10.5ft ceilings and is devoted entirely to bedrooms, including a spacious primary suite with a generous walk-in closet and 5-piece limestone-clad ensuite bath, a second bedroom, and an additional full bath - providing a quiet, private retreat well removed from the home's main entertaining and working spaces.
The upper duplex, accessible via its own private gated entrance, arrives to a stately marble foyer and is currently rented to a market rate tenant. The third floor presents a sun-filled living room with a fireplace, an adjoining den, expansive kitchen, formal dining room, powder room, and laundry. The fourth floor houses a skylight, generously sized primary suite with a five-fixture spa-like bath and adjacent custom walk-in closets plus private balcony, a second bedroom, a home office and additional full bath.
For the visionary buyer or investor, the property offers significant upside; it's located outside of the UES historic district with buildable rights up to 8,500 square feet. Set on one of the Upper East Side's most coveted blocks, 232 East 68th Street enjoys an incredibly convenient and accessible location, with effortless access to schools, world-class museums, exceptional restaurants, art galleries, and the boutiques on Madison Avenue. Whether enjoyed as a magnificent private residence, a turnkey investment, or a sophisticated hybrid of home and workspace, this is an exceptional offering in one of Manhattan's most desirable neighborhoods.

## Sales Evidence

### Recent closed sales

232 East 68th Street has one recorded sale since September 2021, the most recent for $7,500,000 in September 2026. Prices are the figures recorded with the City, not asking prices.

| Unit | Beds | Sq Ft | Sold Price | $/ft² | Sold | Source |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Entire property (Multi Family) | 4 | 6,000 | $7,500,000 | $1,250/ft² | September 9, 2026 | MLS |

### How this price compares

The median closed price for comparable house sales in Lenox Hill is $13,900,000, based on 38 sales between October 2021 and August 2026. This home is asking $7,500,000, $6,400,000 below that median. The middle half of those sales closed between $7,537,500 and $20,115,000.

- **Median closed price**: $13,900,000
- **Middle half**: $7,537,500 – $20,115,000
- **Based on**: 38 house sales in Lenox Hill
- **Period**: October 2021 – August 2026
- **Median $/ft²**: $1,529/ft²

Across the 36 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 89% of what it originally asked. 86% of them closed below the original ask.

A house is not part of a building of comparable apartments, so this benchmark is drawn from house sales across Lenox Hill. Apartment sales are excluded from it entirely.

### How these sales were negotiated

- **Sold vs original ask**: 89% of the original ask
- **Closed below ask**: 86% of 36 sales
- **Listed → in contract**: 244 days (about 35 weeks)
- **In contract → closed**: 47 days (about 7 weeks)

Across the 36 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 89% of what it originally asked. 86% of them closed below the original ask.

Half of these homes were in contract within 244 days (about 35 weeks) of coming to market, based on the 36 with a recorded listing date.

Once a deal was agreed, closing took a further 47 days (about 7 weeks), based on the 36 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 38 house sales in Lenox Hill, October 2021 – August 2026. Each figure counts only the sales that recorded the dates it needs, which is why the denominators differ.

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 1014220136. 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.
