Description

Rare opportunity to buy a gut-renovated sizeable alcove studio that was just completed (and never occupied after renovations). The generous layout has ample space that distinguishes living, entertaining, work station, and sleeping areas with lovely Northern light from an enormous wall of windows! The all new kitchen features stainless steel appliances, a subway-style mint-colored glass backsplash, white quartz counter tops and abundant cabinet space. The modern bathroom has grey and white tiles and a brand new vanity, mirror, toilet and sink and the original sparkling white cast-iron tub. Elsewhere, all new gorgeous floors, base moldings, HVAC, finishes, and generous custom closets. It's pin-drop quiet too!

As a 520 East 72nd Street Owner/Resident, I am pleased to offer this rare opportunity! You can truly have it all!

Nestled on a quiet, tree-lined cul-de-sac overlooking the East River and with easy access to two pocket parks and the East River Promenade, 520 East 72nd Street is a Full-service upper east side co-op offering top-of-the-line amenities including 24-hour doorman/concierge, a live-in resident manager, a garage, laundry facility, a bike room, building link, a library and a Zen-garden. Brand New Lobby and Hallway carpeting. Non-smoking building. Co-purchasers, guarantors, pied-a-terres and subletting (after two years, for two years out of five) are all allowed. Pets welcome! 242 Units. Built in 1963. Co-op permits financing of up to 70%. Convenient to the Second Avenue Subway, two bus routes on the corner (72nd Street Cross-town and the M31 to 57th Street and the Westside), shopping and recreational facilities. Citi Bikes on corner.

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.
