Description

535 East 72nd is an elegant apartment house developed by Carmel Snow, then the editor of Harper's Bazaar, in 1938. Located on a cul-de-sac, this quiet coop is surrounded by an open air park, the East River and a neighboring courtyard which features a reflecting pool. Apartment 2A was beautifully designed by Marco Battistotti with great attention to detail. The zen-like, one-bedroom artfully combines eastern and western design elements in this one-of-a-kind home. Features include bamboo finishes, exposed brick, an open kitchen with top-of-the-line appliances, recessed lighting, a decorative fireplace and partial river views. This pet friendly building has a live-in super, bike room, laundry, storage and common gardens. If you value quality work, great design, light and quiet, then this may be the home for you.
