## Property Overview

A STUNNING FIFTH AVENUE ENTERTAINER'S DREAM WITH EXPANSIVE PRIVATE TERRACE

 An extraordinary opportunity awaits at 870 Fifth Avenue: a spectacular home currently configured as a two bedroom, den/library, and two-and-a-half-bath residence with an expansive private terrace offering open views stretching from Billionaires' Row to peeking into Central Park. Completely reimagined and redesigned in 2024 by internationally acclaimed AD100 designer Tony Ingrao, this home was gut-renovated from the ground up with no expense spared resulting in a seamless blend of timeless elegance and modern sophistication.

 Inside, glamorous style meets thoughtful design. The expansive living and dining areas flow effortlessly across wide-plank white oak floors, illuminated by recessed Element lighting and anchored by a custom backlit onyx bar-a striking centerpiece for entertaining. The open-plan layout extends naturally to the vast terrace through 3 sets of French doors. This a truly rare Fifth Avenue sanctuary with endless possibilities for al fresco dining, lounging, and gatherings under the city skyline.

 The king-sized primary suite offers a peaceful retreat with abundant storage, including a generous walk-in closet and custom built-ins. Its ensuite bath is spa-caliber, finished with quartzite countertops and a full five-piece Waterworks fixture set. The second bedroom with it's own ensuite gorgeous bathroom is in the private Northern wing of the home. The elegant private powder room-complete with a quartzite vanity, Cristal & Bronze fixtures, and a dramatic backlit decorative panel-provide both comfort and style. A large den/home office/3rd bedroom with bright east and north exposures offers complete flexibility.

 The chef's kitchen is a true showpiece, marrying Hans Krug European cabinetry in wood veneer and lacquer finishes with marble countertops, Dornbracht fixtures, a Wolf gas range with vented hood, Sub-Zero refrigeration, and dual Cove dishwashers. Next to the kitchen is a large walk in laundry room with plenty of storage, and an additional pantry.

 Modern systems elevate every detail of daily living: a five-zone HVAC system, vented kitchen and laundry, integrated Lutron lighting, and automated shades, and a Sonance in-ceiling sound system that extends throughout the residence. Every element has been carefully considered, delivering a truly turnkey home for the most discerning buyer.

 870 Fifth Avenue is a distinguished white-glove cooperative offering full-time staff, a beautifully landscaped roof deck, fitness center, and impeccable service. Its prime location at the corner of Fifth Avenue and 68th Street places you moments from Central Park, world-class dining, caf&eacute;s, boutiques, and cultural institutions.

 A storage unit transfers with the sale.

 Please Note: There is a 3% flip tax

 This residence is more than an apartment-it is a private Fifth Avenue oasis.

### How this price compares

The median closed price for comparable two-bedroom sales at 870 Fifth Avenue is $2,000,000, based on 7 sales between January 2022 and September 2025. This home is asking $7,950,000, $5,950,000 above that median. The middle half of those sales closed between $1,620,000 and $2,297,500.

- **Median closed price**: $2,000,000
- **Middle half**: $1,620,000 – $2,297,500
- **Based on**: 7 two-bedroom sales at 870 Fifth Avenue
- **Period**: January 2022 – September 2025

Square footage is recorded for only 3 of these 7 sales (43%), 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.

Across the 5 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 80.1% of what it originally asked. 80% of them closed below the original ask.

### How these sales were negotiated

- **Sold vs original ask**: 80.1% of the original ask
- **Closed below ask**: 80% of 5 sales
- **Listed → in contract**: 183 days (about 26 weeks)
- **In contract → closed**: 112 days (about 16 weeks)

Across the 5 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 80.1% of what it originally asked. 80% of them closed below the original ask.

Half of these homes were in contract within 183 days (about 26 weeks) of coming to market, based on the 6 with a recorded listing date.

Once a deal was agreed, closing took a further 112 days (about 16 weeks), based on the 6 with both dates recorded. A co-op board package and its interview account for much of that.

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 7 two-bedroom sales at 870 Fifth Avenue, January 2022 – September 2025. 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 two-bedroom sales in Lenox Hill, 2016 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 |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 2016 | $1,400,000 | 36 |
| 2017 | $1,440,000 | 135 |
| 2018 | $1,427,500 | 126 |
| 2019 | $1,400,000 | 105 |
| 2020 | $1,302,500 | 76 |
| 2021 | $1,300,000 | 245 |
| 2022 | $1,350,000 | 207 |
| 2023 | $1,390,000 | 151 |
| 2024 | $1,350,000 | 163 |
| 2025 | $1,400,000 | 180 |
| 2026 | $1,475,000 | 81 |

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 Lenox Hill 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.
