Description
LOCATION MATTERS! UES Gold Coast Condo - This 2 bedroom, 2 bath is an exceptional opportunity you won't want to pass up. In NYC, prewar condominiums are hard to find. Even rarer are those housed in elegant, white glove, doorman buildings on the Upper East Side's stylish Gold Coast. And this condo is priced especially right! Apartment 2A is on the market for the first time in decades. With great prewar detail and lots of potential, it is situated in an intimate setting with just 2 other homes on the floor. Enter to a living/dining room with lovely herringbone hardwood oak floors and a working wood-burning fireplace that overlooks chic 72nd Street, and gets warm, reflected northern light. It's adjacent to a galley kitchen, with 2 generously-sized bedrooms down the hallway. There are ample closets and oak floors throughout. The building permits much-treasured washer/dyers, and there's even a basement storage unit. 50 East 72nd Street is an attractive 15-story building with a handsome, polished lobby, 24-hour doorman, and valet service. It's located between Madison and Park Avenues, with their world-famous boutiques, great restaurants, and the city's finest museums and galleries. This home is not only convenient to Central Park, and many subway and bus lines, but also highly-rated nearby public schools. A pre-war condo gem in a superb location. A great investment, at an affordable price. Don't miss out!

Known for 'Museum Mile' and its low-traffic, tree-lined streets, the neighborhood offers a refined lifestyle away from the midtown bustle.
