Description

With space for a dance studio, this beautiful, high floor, South facing apartment at The Fontaine, 353 East 72nd Street, New York, NY 10021 is a gem if you like views, light and neatly configured spaces. The living room and bedroom both face South with large picture windows looking down to the Mid-town Manhattan skyline with the tops of the Chrysler and Empire State Buildings visible.72nd Street is a wide street and from the 24th Floor, there are no tall buildings directly across the street so the views are unobstructed. The glass in all the windows is being replaced to provide a crisp clear view! The spacious living-dining room has a pleasing rectangular floorplan with a large two door closet in the West wall. There are three closets in the apartment, all nicely fitted out with hanging areas, shelves and other appurtenances to make it convenient to stow away one's possessions. The kitchen with its dark wood cabinetry is open to the living-dining area separated by a compact breakfast bar which also has some storage underneath. While not large, the kitchen has all the necessary appliances in stainless-steel with plenty of storage and a good amount of counter space. A small hallway leads from the kitchen to the bedroom. The second closet, also with two doors is in this hallway. The part closer to the bedroom has shelving that could be used for a linen closet. The ample bedroom can easily take a king-sized bed with some furniture around it. Once again the light and views are delightful. There is a deep closet with one door that is also fitted with convenient drawers, shelves and hanging areas. The bathroom is across from the bedroom and is very clean and bright with glass sliding doors on a tub and a good medicine cabinet with mirrors both within and on the outside. The Fontaine is a full service building with 24-hour concierge, laundry, a fitness room, roof deck, bicycle room and more. The building allows sub-letting, co-purchasing, pied-a-terres and pets. There are many good transportation options including the M72 bus which stops outside that will take you to the West Side, the new Q train stop right on the corner of 2nd Avenue and the M15 as well as Select Bus Services up and down First and Second Avenues in addition to all the various car services. There are grocery stores such as the Morton Williams Market at the corner of First Avenue and 71st Street as well as plenty of banks, restaurants and take out joints such as Sweetgreen and DIG and even a health food store called A Matter of Health. Please call for a Virtual, Video or In-Person showing according to your convenience.

The 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.
