Originally built at the turn of the century, 518 East 89th Street is a stately townhouse offering 4,081 square feet of beautifully proportioned living space across multiple levels. With four bedrooms, a dedicated home office (or optional fifth bedroom), and a perfect blend of preserved architectural detail and modern luxury, this residence captures the elegance of classic New York living just moments from Carl Schurz Park and the East River Promenade. This extraordinary home is a perfect balance of elegance, comfort, and modern amenities. The Parlor Level Upon entry, the parlor level immediately sets the tone for the home's grandeur. The stately living room, with its scale and refined detail, flows gracefully into a formal dining room, serviced by a butler's pantry - ideal for both intimate dinners and large-scale entertaining. Soaring ceilings and elegant proportions define this level, creating a lasting impression from the moment you arrive. The Garden Level The garden level serves as the true heart of the home. Here, a large, eat-in kitchen with abundant cabinetry, high-end appliances, and a wine fridge anchors the space. South-facing glass doors open to a private backyard, complete with a fully equipped outdoor kitchen and landscaped setting for al fresco dining. Adjacent to the kitchen, a media room offers a relaxed space for lounging or movie nights while maintaining a seamless connection to the outdoors. The Private Bedroom Floors The upper levels of the residence are devoted to private quarters. Each bedroom is thoughtfully designed with its own ensuite bath and generous closet space, ensuring comfort and privacy for family and guests alike. A flexible home office easily converts to a fifth bedroom, allowing the layout to adapt to modern needs. The Lower Level The lower level adds versatility and function, with a spacious recreation room, generous storage including a cedar closet, and a full laundry room. A cave à vin - a French-style wine cellar designed with optimal conditions for storing and aging a fine collection, making it a true highlight for any wine enthusiast. A truly remarkable place to call home! ## Property Details - **Property Type**: Single Family Residence - **Beds**: 4 - **Total Baths**: 6 - **Rooms**: 16 - **Sqft**: 900 sqft - **Stories**: 2 - **Year Built**: 1901 - **Price per Sqft**: $6,667 - **Monthly Taxes**: $4,620 / mo - **Listed On**: Sep 23, 2025 - **Days on Market**: 355 Days ### Residence Features - Central Air - Washer Hookup - In Unit - Private Outdoor Space Over 60 Sqft - Smoke Free - Washer Dryer Allowed ## Sales Evidence ### Recent closed sales 518 East 89th Street has 2 recorded sales since September 2021, the most recent for $6,000,000 in July 2026. Prices are the figures recorded with the City, not asking prices. | Unit | Beds | Sq Ft | Sold Price | $/ft² | Sold | Source | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Entire property (Single Family Residence) | 4 | — | $6,000,000 | — | July 21, 2026 | MLS | | Entire property (Single Family Residence) | 4 | 2,560 | $3,325,000 | $1,299/ft² | August 7, 2024 | MLS | ### How this price compares The median closed price for comparable house sales in Yorkville is $4,585,000, based on 10 sales between November 2023 and July 2026. This home is asking $6,000,000, $1,415,000 above that median. The middle half of those sales closed between $2,185,000 and $5,841,250. - **Median closed price**: $4,585,000 - **Middle half**: $2,185,000 – $5,841,250 - **Based on**: 10 house sales in Yorkville - **Period**: November 2023 – July 2026 - **Median $/ft²**: $1,488/ft² Across the 9 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 94.1% of what it originally asked. 78% 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 Yorkville. Apartment sales are excluded from it entirely. ### How these sales were negotiated - **Sold vs original ask**: 94.1% of the original ask - **Closed below ask**: 78% of 9 sales - **Listed → in contract**: 76 days (about 11 weeks) - **In contract → closed**: 57 days (about 8 weeks) Across the 9 of these sales with a published asking price, the median closed at 94.1% of what it originally asked. 78% of them closed below the original ask. Half of these homes were in contract within 76 days (about 11 weeks) of coming to market, based on the 10 with a recorded listing date. Once a deal was agreed, closing took a further 57 days (about 8 weeks), based on the 10 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 10 house sales in Yorkville, November 2023 – July 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 1015850043. 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.
