Overview of 108 East 86th Street

108 East 86th Street is a prewar co-op located in the Carnegie Hill neighborhood, featuring 30 apartments across 15 floors. Built in 1924 and converted to a cooperative in 1980, the building showcases a brown-brick façade with a limestone base and attractive wrought-iron window grills. Residents benefit from a full-time doorman, a resident superintendent, and amenities such as a gym, laundry room, storage, and bike room. The building is conveniently situated near Central Park, Museum Mile, and multiple subway lines, making it an ideal location for urban living.

Common features among the apartments include high ceilings—often exceeding 9 feet—and spacious layouts that allow for ample natural light. Many units boast wood-burning fireplaces, windowed kitchens, and generous storage options. Notably, the building permits pets and pied-à-terres, accommodating a variety of living arrangements. The apartments are designed to provide both comfort and functionality, with some units offering multiple exposures and unique architectural details.

108 East 86th Street has attracted a diverse range of residents, including families and professionals, due to its proximity to elite schools and cultural institutions. The building's intimate size, with only two units per floor, fosters a sense of community while maintaining privacy. With a monthly assessment currently in place for local law compliance, potential buyers should be aware of this additional cost.

Sales History

Price/Room (Est)

Why are we displaying the estimated price per room?

For some co-ops, instead of price per square foot, we use an estimate of the number of rooms for each sold apartment to chart price changes over time. This is because many co-op listings do not include square footage information, and this makes it challenging to calculate accurate square-foot averages.

By displaying the price per estimated room count, we are able to provide a more reliable and consistent metric for comparing sales in the building. While we hope that this gives you a clearer sense of price trends in the building, all data should be independently verified. All data provided are only estimates and should not be used to make any purchase or sale decision.
