Those are excluded from the benchmark below. ### How this price compares - **This home**: $1,485,000 - **Median sold price**: $1,200,000 - **Difference**: +$285,000 (+23.8%) - **This home, $/ft²**: $1,188 - **Comparable sales**: 3 - **Sales from**: April 2022 – September 2023 - **Middle half of those sales**: $1,097,500 – $1,342,500 Based on one-bedroom sales at 40 East 61ST Street. Square footage is recorded for only 2 of these 3 sales (67%), so no price per square foot is shown for this group.

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, condo and house one-bedroom sales in Lenox Hill | Year | Median sold price | Sales | | --- | --- | --- | | 2017 | $1,195,000 | 57 | | 2018 | $1,100,000 | 68 | | 2019 | $950,000 | 57 | | 2020 | $993,750 | 36 | | 2021 | $941,000 | 65 | | 2022 | $931,000 | 77 | | 2023 | $972,500 | 53 | | 2024 | $1,025,000 | 72 | | 2025 | $995,000 | 59 | | 2026 YTD | $1,050,000 | 51 | Based on recorded condo and house one-bedroom sales in Lenox Hill. 2026 is year-to-date.
