Description

This home is absolutely stunning! Triple-mint condition with a palatial layout, a perfect apartment to settle into…..with space to grow, a rarity in NYC! The home’s tailored design aesthetic is a balance of crisp, clean minimalism with the warmth of traditional details and peaceful colors. Starting with the Carlisle wide-plank hardwood floors, to the custom lighting throughout you can see the approach the interior designer took into making a home that is both extremely functional and one that offers the owner an overall sense of tranquility the moment you enter.

There are 3 well-proportioned bedrooms, each sizable for a king bed, as well as additional space for a dresser(s) and side tables. For those that work from home, there are several areas throughout the apartment that you can dedicate as your own personal workspace that will promote concentration and creativity.

The Primary Suite is tucked away from the center of the apartment, allowing for peace and quiet. With an en-suite bathroom that has been flawlessly designed with porcelain slabs, a Robern Medicine cabinet, and Toto and Zen Watermark Collection fixtures. Just bring a toothbrush and you’ll see how quickly this becomes your own little sanctuary.

Just outside of the primary bedroom and connected to the bathroom is your own Bosch Washer and Dryer.

The custom designed kitchen is uniquely tailored to fit the layout, style, and functionality of the home. With a bespoke design, every element was carefully selected and placed, from the deVOL cabinets directly from Leicestershire England and the Neolith Calacatta Luxe sintered countertops, to the Bertazzoni and Bosch appliances. The open layout allows for ease of entertaining and dining.

Being on the 2nd Floor, the apartment has beautiful tree-lined, flower bed exposures and direct sun from both the northern and southern exposures. And the apartment is quite, in fact, it’s very quiet..come listen for yourself.

Conveniently located just off of First Avenue and one block from the Second Avenue subway, 420 East 72ndStreet is a full-service coop with an absolutely wonderful staff! 24-hr doorperson, concierge, live-in super, central laundry (in-unit W/D) and parking garage (discounted for shareholders). Guarantors, co-purchasers, and gifting allowed. Pets and pied-a-terres welcomed on a case-by-case basis.

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.
