Overview of 151 East 83rd Street

151 East 83rd Street is an 11 story, 82 apartment pre-war cooperative built in 1929 in Carnegie Hill on the Upper East Side. Its red brick façade is detailed with limestone spandrels, a four story limestone surround framing the canopied entrance, and a battlement roofline. A step up entrance leads to a step down lobby, while a deep interior light well holds a landscaped garden.

Apartments commonly retain high beamed ceilings, wood burning fireplaces, hardwood floors, entry foyers, and generously proportioned living rooms. Windowed kitchens and bathrooms recur in several layouts, and upper floor homes have open city or skyline views. The one bedroom penthouse is architecturally distinct, with a double exposure great room opening directly to a private wraparound terrace.

The building has a 24 hour attended lobby, a live-in superintendent, central laundry, a bike room, and rentable storage. The furnished garden has several seating areas, and in-unit washer dryers are permitted. The co-op is pet friendly and allows pied-à-terre ownership, with financing up to 75 percent subject to board approval.

Central Park and The Metropolitan Museum of Art are several blocks west, and the shops and food markets along the 86th Street corridor are close by. The 86th Street station at Lexington Avenue serves the 4, 5, and 6 trains, while the 86th Street station on Second Avenue serves the Q.

Broker & Buyer Comments

This "well-run" pre-war co-op offers "old-world charm" with its full-time elevator operator and "beautifully planted garden." The "prime location" just off Lexington Avenue provides easy access to Central Park, while the building delivers "practical amenities" including bike storage, laundry facilities, and storage rooms. "Low-key" yet "impeccably managed," this mid-block gem welcomes pied-a-terre owners and provides a "serene residential setting" in the heart of the Upper East Side.

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.
