Description

When you enter residence 20F, you find an apartment with a graciously apportioned layout, sparkling city views, high-end finishes, and an unmatched amount of closet storage. A proper entry foyer welcomes you in and leads into the living room and chef?s kitchen which further enhance the comfort and ability to entertain in the home. The dining area looks out to magnificent City views and is enhanced in the evenings with modern chandelier lighting. The large eat-in kitchen is complete with full-size appliances, marble accents, and open City views. Other top-of-the-line finishes include a renovated bathroom, solid hardwood parquet floors, and (with board approval) permits in-unit washer + dryer (W/D). The sizable master bedroom suite is pin-drop quiet and easily fits a king-size bed. With stunning City views, the master bedroom has space for a home office set up, and features two truly enviable custom California closets. The second flex bedroom located just off the living room easily fits a queen-size bed, desk furniture, and features a custom California closet. 420 East 72nd Street is a 24-hour Doorman and Concierge building with interiors by a well-known architect. Residents enjoy an unmatched array of luxury amenities including friendly staff, local deliveries, dry cleaning pick-up, dog walking, laundry room, and magnificent city views. Parking Garage with Valet Service and Bike Storage are available. The truly top-notch Super and Staff are second to none. The building welcomes Pets (Dogs and Cats), Pied-A-Terre, Guarantors, and Co-purchases, and is willing to consider each on a case-by-case basis. Flip tax is 1.5%. Maintenance is low at $2,373 per month. Ask me how it would cost you only $3,995 per month after a 25% down payment and tax deductions. The building is surrounded by charming tree-lined streets with Century-old brownstones. The residence is located within ideal proximity to the East River Promenade, Central Park, Sotheby?s Auction, Private schools, and fine dining at nearby restaurants Campagnola (Italian cuisine), Orsay (French cuisine), Yefsi (Greek cuisine), and more. Transportation is a breeze with the Q train on 72nd/Second, 4-5-6 train on Lex/86th, Hampton Jitney on Lex/77th, and the Blade Lounge on 34th.

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.
