Residence 5A at 47 East 88th Street is a majestic, sunlit home with warm southern and western exposures, high beamed ceilings and a layout that is both generous and adaptable for elegant entertaining and spacious living. Featuring a large living room, a formal dining room, a windowed eat-in kitchen, 4 bedrooms plus a large home office/guest bedroom, this residence also translates beautifully to a gracious 3-bedroom plus library as it has been used by its current owner, accommodating any need or preference. Enter off of a semi-private landing and into a grand central gallery with herringbone hardwood floors. Overlooking Madison Avenue to the west through oversized double-hung windows, the living room stretches nearly 25 feet deep and is adorned with a handsome wood burning fireplace and high beamed ceilings overhead. Across the gallery, the formal dining room complements the living room in scale and is made all the more welcoming day and night by a sunny southern exposure over 88th Street. Adjacent to the formal dining room, a large windowed eat-in kitchen welcomes a top-tier re-imagining to create an enviable dining kitchen with ample room for abundant counter space, vast storage, and casual dining as well. Just off of the kitchen, two staff rooms were combined to create one large home office/den/guest bedroom serviced by a bathroom just across the hall. There is a large walk-in closet immediately adjacent which offers an ideal opportunity to carve out a dedicated laundry room upon approval. Separate from the entertaining spaces, the private quarters occupy their own dedicated wing of the home and are beautifully apportioned. The primary bedroom suite wraps the building's southwest corner and is bathed in glorious sun. There are twin cedar closets as well as a windowed en-suite primary bathroom. Two more king-sized bedrooms are serviced by a windowed Jack-and-Jill bathroom, and one of them enjoys a double exposure east and south over 88th Street. The fourth bedroom which currently serves as a library is ideally accessible both off of the bedroom corridor as well as the gallery, with a third full bathroom immediately adjacent, allowing it to function easily as a full-time bedroom if desired. Pending building review and approval of plans, a powder room could also be added off of the gallery by accessing plumbing from the existing bathroom off of the bedroom corridor. One block from Central Park, 47 East 88th Street is a handsome luxury prewar cooperative which commands the northeast corner of Madison Avenue and 88th Street. A full-service staff is comprised of full-time doormen, porters and live-in resident manager, and there is a fitness room, children's playroom, dedicated private storage units and bicycle storage. Residents of this prime Carnegie Hill cooperative enjoy quick access to Central Park and the Onassis Reservoir as well as immediate proximity to the finest of the city's museums and educational institutions as well as a rich host of luxury and boutique shopping and dining experiences which define life on the Upper East Side. Financing is allowed up to 50% and there is a flip tax of 2% payable by the purchaser. Pets are welcome. ## Property Details - **Property Type**: Co-op - **Beds**: 4 - **Baths**: 4 - **Rooms**: 8 - **Stories**: 16 - **Year Built**: 1930 - **Common Charges**: $6,590 / Monthly - **Listed On**: Mar 20, 2026 - **Days on Market**: 181 Days ### Residence Features - Building Other - In Unit - Separate/Formal Dining Room - High Ceilings - Washer Dryer Allowed - City ## Estimated Monthly Payment **$27,827 / month**, assuming a 20% down payment ($840,000), a 6.5% interest rate and a 30-year term.

Square footage is recorded for only 6 of these 22 sales (27%), 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. This building has not had enough comparable sales of its own in the period to support a median, so the benchmark is drawn from Carnegie Hill instead. ### How these sales were negotiated - **Sale-to-list price**: 95.8% (21 sales) - **Sold below asking**: 71% (21 sales) - **Typical time to find a buyer**: 44 days (21 sales) - **Typical time to close**: 113 days (21 sales) Based on co-op four-bedroom sales in Carnegie Hill with the required listing and closing data. Sample sizes vary by metric. 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. ### Price trend Median sale price, co-op four-bedroom sales in Carnegie Hill | Year | Median sold price | Sales | | --- | --- | --- | | 2017 | $5,332,500 | 12 | | 2019 | $4,995,000 | 13 | | 2021 | $4,637,500 | 14 | | 2022 | $4,150,000 | 12 | | 2024 | $3,400,000 | 10 | | 2025 | $5,160,454 | 17 | Based on recorded co-op four-bedroom sales in Carnegie Hill. Sales data through June 2026. 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. ## Price and Property History for 47 East 88TH Street, Unit 5A Review the recorded listing activity for 47 East 88TH Street, Unit 5A, including asking-price changes and prior market dates. - **Latest price change**: Reduced by $300,000, or 6.7%, on August 24, 2026 - **Originally listed**: March 20, 2026 at $4,500,000 - **Last sold**: $4,200,000 on August 24, 2026 | Date | Price | Listing event | | --- | --- | --- | | August 24, 2026 | $4,200,000 | Sold | | August 24, 2026 | $4,200,000 | Asking price reduced by $300,000, or 6.7% | | May 16, 2026 | $4,500,000 | Entered contract | | March 20, 2026 | $4,500,000 | Listed for sale by Brown Harris Stevens Residential Sales LLC | ## Carnegie Hill Overview of Carnegie Hill [Explore Carnegie Hill](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/neighborhoods/new-york-city/manhattan/carnegie-hill) · [All Neighborhoods](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/neighborhoods) ### Nearby Carnegie Hill - [Central Park real estate for sale](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/neighborhoods/new-york-city/manhattan/central-park) - [Roosevelt Island real estate for sale](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/neighborhoods/new-york-city/manhattan/roosevelt-island) - [Upper West Side real estate for sale](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/neighborhoods/new-york-city/manhattan/upper-west-side) - [Midtown real estate for sale](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/neighborhoods/new-york-city/manhattan/midtown) - [Theater District real estate for sale](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/neighborhoods/new-york-city/manhattan/theater-district) - [East Harlem real estate for sale](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/neighborhoods/new-york-city/manhattan/east-harlem) ## Related Links - [Carnegie Hill neighborhood guide](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/neighborhoods/new-york-city/manhattan/carnegie-hill) - [Estimate your Buyer Commission Share and closing costs](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/calculators/buyer-closing-cost-calculator) - [Contact Régis Roumila](https://realestaterebatesnewyork.com/contact) --- > RLS IDX Data display by Real Estate Rebate Team.
