Set along one of the neighborhood’s most desirable tree-lined blocks, this south-facing two-bedroom, two-bathroom residence offers three exposures, beautiful parquet floors, and the rare distinction of a separate formal dining room. The living and dining rooms create an elegant setting for both everyday living and entertaining, with generous proportions and a natural sense of flow. A classic butler’s door connects the formal dining room to the windowed kitchen, preserving the apartment’s traditional separation of spaces while adding to its functionality. The kitchen features a built-in wine rack and a private service door opening directly to the building’s service entrance. Double-pane windows throughout provide a quieter, more comfortable interior. The oversized primary bedroom enjoys corner exposures and an en-suite bath, while the second bedroom—currently configured as a private home office—offers flexibility as a bedroom, guest suite, or study. Both bathrooms are finished in floor-to-ceiling Italian marble and present an opportunity for a refined contemporary update. The well-proportioned layout offers additional possibilities for customization, subject to architectural review and required approvals, including the potential to reimagine the formal dining room as a third bedroom, generous den, or additional living space. Designed by architect George Pelham and completed in 1928, 51 East 90th Street is an intimate, full-service cooperative comprising just 38 residences. Building amenities include a full-time doorman, attended service elevator, live-in superintendent, bicycle storage, laundry room, and private storage, subject to availability. In-unit washer/dryers and through-wall air conditioning are permitted. The pet-friendly cooperative also permits pied-à-terre ownership and up to 60% financing. A monthly capital assessment of $1,286.25 remains in effect through June 2027. Ideally situated in Carnegie Hill, the residence is moments from Central Park’s Engineers’ Gate and the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir, and Museum Mile. Nearby schools include The Dalton School, Saint David’s School, The Spence School, The Nightingale-Bamford School, and Convent of the Sacred Heart. With its exceptional location, prewar character, gracious proportions, and potential for thoughtful modernization, Residence 2A presents a rare opportunity to create a distinctly personal home in one of Manhattan’s most coveted neighborhoods. ## Property Details - **Property Type**: Co-op - **Beds**: 2 - **Baths**: 2 - **Rooms**: 5 - **Stories**: 10 - **Year Built**: 1926 - **Common Charges**: $3,877 / Monthly - **Listed On**: Oct 6, 2026 - **Days on Market**: 17 Days ### Residence Features - Wall Unit(s) - Building Washer Dryer Install Allowed - Common Area - In Unit - Building Storage - Kitchen Window - Dryer - Washer ## Estimated Monthly Payment **$11,083 / month**, assuming a 20% down payment ($285,000), a 6.5% interest rate and a 30-year term.

Those are excluded from the benchmark below. ### How this price compares - **This home**: $1,425,000 - **Median sold price**: $1,140,000 - **Difference**: +$285,000 (+25%) - **Comparable sales**: 8 - **Sales from**: July 2022 – October 2025 - **Middle half of those sales**: $961,750 – $1,303,750 Based on two-bedroom sales at 51 East 90TH Street. Square footage is recorded for only 3 of these 8 sales (38%), 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. ### How these sales were negotiated - **Sale-to-list price**: 100% (6 sales) - **Sold below asking**: 33% (6 sales) - **Typical time to find a buyer**: 60 days (7 sales) - **Typical time to close**: 126 days (7 sales) Based on two-bedroom sales at 51 East 90TH Street 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 two-bedroom sales in Carnegie Hill | Year | Median sold price | Sales | | --- | --- | --- | | 2017 | $1,650,000 | 29 | | 2018 | $1,550,000 | 32 | | 2019 | $1,850,000 | 27 | | 2020 | $1,367,250 | 18 | | 2021 | $1,700,000 | 47 | | 2022 | $1,725,000 | 34 | | 2023 | $1,437,500 | 24 | | 2024 | $1,712,500 | 31 | | 2025 | $1,525,000 | 42 | | 2026 YTD | $1,995,000 | 25 | Based on recorded co-op two-bedroom sales in Carnegie Hill. 2026 is year-to-date.
