Description
Ideally located on East 72nd Street between Park and Madison Avenues, this renovated pre-war, three-bedroom apartment is a must-see. One enters the sizable gallery from a semi-private elevator vestibule. To the right of the entrance gallery, is a spacious living room with two windows facing south onto East 72nd Street. The living room features a woodburning fireplace with recessed built-ins on either side. Adjacent to the living room, is the apartment’s dining room - currently figured as a media room with a wall of built-in cabinetry and a large north facing window overlooking East 71st Street. Accessed via the dining room, the apartment’s substantial eat-in kitchen features three north facing windows, custom cabinetry, and designer appliances, such as a Sub-Zero refrigerator and Viking range. Additionally, a discreet closet in the kitchen hides the washer and dryer. There is also a thoughtfully designed home-office space within the kitchen and a powder room that is easily accessible via a pocket door just outside the dining room. To the left of the entrance gallery lies the apartment’s three bedrooms. The first two bedrooms share a renovated windowed bath. Both bedrooms have generous south facing windows that look onto East 72nd Street. At the end of the hallway, the primary bedroom includes three windows with both southern and eastern exposures onto East 72nd Street and Park Avenue allowing for natural light throughout the day. The primary bedroom’s well-appointed ensuite bathroom features classic marble finishes, Waterworks fixtures, a walk-in shower, and a double vanity. The apartment enjoys through wall air-conditioning throughout.

About Upper East Side
View All Upper East Side ListingsThe Upper East Side remains the gold standard for classic New York elegance. Known for 'Museum Mile' and its quiet, tree-lined streets, the neighborhood offers a refined lifestyle away from the midtown bustle. While famous for its historic cooperatives, the area has seen a recent surge in ultra-luxury new construction condos, particularly along the Second Avenue Subway corridor, making it a top choice for both traditionalists and modern buyers.
