Sharing the tree-lined block of the celebrated Lowell Hotel, this exceptional approximately 5,000 sq. ft., 15 ft.-wide five-story full-basement residence was built in 1910 and designed in the Italianate style by noted architect J.H. Valentine. Currently configured as four separate apartments, 40 East 63rd Street could easily be renovated as a spectacular single-family residence or preserved as an income-generating property. Delivered vacant. The expansive garden duplex features three bedrooms, one full bath, and two half baths. A spacious living and dining area opens onto a private, sun-filled rear garden, creating an ideal setting for both everyday living and entertaining. A roomy bedroom overlooks the front garden while the open kitchen features a Bosch stove and microwave. The upper level offers two beautifully proportioned bedrooms with 10'10' ceilings, generous closets, the primary bedroom with en-suite bath. The third floor contains a one bedroom/one bath apartment with a spacious street-facing living/dining area, an efficient kitchen and a bedroom space with garden views. Full bath, closets and a wood-burning fireplace are enhanced by this floor's 10'2" ceilings. The fourth floor one bedroom/one bath apartment balances a charming living/dining area with an ample bedroom, the latter opening onto a lovely 200 sq. ft. terrace. Galley kitchen, wood-burning fireplace and a full bath as well as numerous closets and 9'6" ceilings. The penthouse apartment replicates the fourth floor's interior plan but also boasts 11"7' ceilings that rise in the living/dining area to a spectacular central skylight. Additional highlights include hardwood floors throughout, large windows, and a full basement providing abundant storage and utility space. Surrounded by classic New York atmosphere and some of the world's best restaurants, shopping and art galleries, 40 East 63rd Street awaits its potential reimagining as a truly unique property on one of New York's most exclusive blocks. ## Property Details - **Property Type**: Multi Family - **Beds**: 6 - **Total Baths**: 7 - **Rooms**: 10 - **Sqft**: 1,050 sqft - **Stories**: 4 - **Year Built**: 1910 - **Price per Sqft**: $7,995 - **Monthly Taxes**: $8,901 / mo - **Listed On**: Apr 28, 2026 - **Days on Market**: 137 Days ### Residence Features - In Unit - Smoke Free ## Sales Evidence ### 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 $8,395,000, $5,505,000 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.

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 1013770144. 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.
