Description

Sun-flooded Mint 8 Rooms


Amazing southern skyline views and sun-drenched, this move-in mint home rarely comes on the market. A semi-private elevator landing opens into a large gallery with two closets. The spacious corner living room with its high ceiling and wood-burning fireplace enjoys these fabulous views as do other rooms. Adjacent is a square formal dining room. Also emanating from the gallery is a charming library or bedroom with a wood-burning fireplace. The glamorous corner master bedroom with a third wood-burning fireplace, huge walk-in closet and ensuite bath as well as a second bedroom with ensuite bath also flow from the gallery. The well-equipped large gourmet kitchen has an abundance of cabinets. A staff room converted to a modern office with full bath, all new windows, thru-wall air conditioning and a washer/dryer complete the 15th floor residence. A special feature is a large office/bedroom with bath on the ground floor off the lobby (maintenance fee $719/month). Two large locked storage rooms convey with the apartment (1010 and 126). Showings allowed M-F 9-6 pm and on Sunday 1-5 with 48 hour notice.


36 East 72nd Street is a prestigious boutique pre-war full service cooperative building, one block from Central Park on desirable 72nd street off Madison Avenue. It welcomes pied-a-terres, international buyers and pets. Up to 50% financing permitted.

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.
