Description

Tastefully refined, this nine-into-seven room triple mint apartment is located in a prominent prewar cooperative just off Park Avenue. Accessed via a semi-private elevator landing, this apartment depicts a design that reflects timeless elegance and creates a seamless flow for entertaining and living. Well located off the 23 foot entrance gallery is the graciously proportioned 24 foot living room featuring a wood burning fireplace, custom millwork and southern views of treetops on 72nd Street. On the opposite side of the gallery is a spacious formal dining room currently used as a wonderful library. The gallery leads to a proper bedroom hallway. There is a generous primary bedroom with gut renovated en suite bath adorned with double sinks and an oversized shower. There is also a separate dressing area and 6 closets. The spacious second bedroom accesses a pristine full bath well located on the hallway. A lovely third bedroom is also accessed off of the bedroom hallway and has two good closets. A meticulously renovated house-like eat-in-kitchen boasts top of the line appliances, custom millwork, beautiful hardwood floors, and a cheery tree-filled exposure overlooking townhouse gardens. This chic apartment has been thoughtfully designed to accommodate large scale entertaining needs as well as daily life. Completing this perfect apartment is a windowed laundry room with separate sink and a private fourth bedroom that acts as a perfect guest suite with impeccably renovated full bath. Built as a cooperative in 1927, 117 East 72nd Street is a coveted white glove building with a full complement of staff headed by a live-in resident manager. This is a rare opportunity for purchase. Pets are permitted. 2% Flip Tax payable by purchaser. Financing is not permitted.

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.
