Create the perfect modern-meets-classic home in this sprawling four-bedroom, four-bathroom residence awaiting your vision and style in a full-service Upper East Side cooperative. Spanning over 3,000 square feet, this one-of-a-kind home harks to an age of luxurious entertaining and comfortable daily life. Expansive rooms feature hardwood floors, soaring ceilings, classic millwork and large windows on three exposures. Arrive via a semi-private elevator landing and grand foyer. To the left, the oversized windowed kitchen is anchored by a large island with plenty of room for cooking and a sunny breakfast room. The maid's quarters here are ideal as a bedroom/guest suite or home office with a service entrance nearby. At the opposite end, a private butler's pantry leads directly to the formal dining room for gracious entertaining. Flow seamlessly to the adjacent living room to relax in front of the fireplace and magnificent southern light surrounded by beamed ceilings and herringbone floors. Next door, a stately library offers wonderful built-ins and open-sky views. The lavish master suite sits at the end of the hallway, where you'll find five large closets and a windowed en suite bath with a bathtub and separate shower. There's another bedroom suite with a private bathroom, plus a third bedroom adjacent to the hallway's full bath. Other D-line homeowners have added central air conditioning, powder rooms and family rooms to suit their needs. Offered in estate condition, this special residence is the perfect site for your personal Upper East Side dream home. Proposed building-approved renovation plan and architectural drawings available with sale. Located within the Upper East Side Historic District, 125 East 72nd Street is a 1916 Colonial Revival building designed by Schwartz & Gross. Today's residents enjoy full-time doorman service, live-in superintendent, a gym, storage lockers and a bike room. Maintenance includes electricity, and pets and 50 percent financing are permitted. A 2 percent flip tax is split between the buyer and seller. Situated at the corner of 72nd and Lexington, this home grants front-row access to the best of Upper East Side living.

The Upper East Side remains the gold standard for classic New York elegance. Known for 'Museum Mile' and its low-traffic, 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.
