155 E 73RD Street #7B

On the historic carriage house block of East 73rd Street, this mint condition residence affords classic prewar charm with recent meticulous updates. Situated on the seventh floor of a handsome nine story boutique cooperative built in 1923 with only four apartments per floor, the apartment features high beamed ceilings, tasteful moldings, a functioning wood burning fireplace and richly refinished hardwood floors. Custom built-ins have been thoughtfully added to the living room and two south facing bedrooms (one currently used as a den) to provide additional storage and house through-the-wall air conditioning units. Highlights of the inviting open kitchen include granite countertops and premium stainless steel appliances; a four burner Viking stove, SubZero refrigerator/freezer and Miele dishwasher. Conveniently accessed off a central hall adjacent to the master bedroom is the attractive windowed bath renovated to high contemporary standards. Six closets outfitted by California Closets provide ample storage and exposures south and west supply attractive light. This pet friendly building has a gracious lobby, part time doorman and live-in superintendent. There is a large laundry room and bike storage in the refurbished basement. Excellent opportunity to enjoy a prime location three blocks from Central Park with easy access to the best restaurants, shopping and transportation on the Upper East Side. 75% financing permitted.
