Description

Residence 2B at 50 East 72nd Street is a sprawling, gut renovated 2-Bedroom boasting 1,650 square feet of living space. Upon entering you are greeted with a grand foyer that sets the tone with nearly 10-foot ceilings and archways decorated with oversized pre-war moldings and impressive millwork. Ebony-stained, herringbone hardwood floors throughout the living spaces epitomizes sophistication and upmarket style. An expansive 24-foot-long living room, complete with a wood-burning fireplace and custom built-ins, is the perfect space for entertainment or relaxation by the fire. The kitchen, and generously sized dining room, have been fully upgraded with the standards of a professional chef and is ready for hosting. Outfitted with marble countertops, custom cabinetry, and top of the line stainless steel appliances, including a hooded Wolf range, Sub-Zero refrigerator, Miele dishwasher and a built-in wine fridge. This is an ideal space to host a dinner party or Sunday dinner with the family. Enter the primary suite where there is no shortage of custom closet space (six to be exact), and two ensuite bathrooms upgraded with marble vanities, walk in shower, and a deep soaking tub. This king-sized bedroom is what dreams are made of. Second bedroom is a perfect guest suite with its own ensuite bath. Built in 1928, this historic pre-war condominium is 15 floors with only 48 units total, creating an intimate, boutique-like environment. Residents will enjoy full-time doorman service, a live-in resident manager, and bike storage in the cellar. Conveniently nestled into the Lenox Hill neighborhood on the Upper East Side, 50 East 72nd is less than two blocks from Central Park. Lenox Hill is a thriving neighborhood for residents and businesses alike filled with endless culture, delicious culinary experiences, and outdoor recreational options.

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.
