531 E 72nd Street #1ACD

Situated at the end of East 72nd Street, overlooking a leafy, cobblestone park and the East River, this rambling 3 bedroom and 3 bathroom home is located on the ground level which makes the apartment feel very much like a private townhouse. The apartment is part of the beautifully-preserved and charming 19th Century iconic "Black & White" buildings. The apartment offers inspiring, flexible space, while maintaining many original details, such as a wood burning fireplace, hardwood floors and 9'6" ceilings. It is currently configured as a 23' long Living/Dining room, with a library/den, an en suite, expansive primary bedroom with 3 large south-facing windows with oblique river views and accompanying dressing area, and a second bedroom. There are architectural plans that have been approved by the Board (please see floor plans) to create an open kitchen area that would flow very nicely into the Living/Dining space. The seller is willing to provide these approved plans as part of the sale so all the leg work has been done and approved! Truly an exceptional incentive/bonus when considering this well priced 3 bedroom Upper East Side coop. The apartment does need work, but is well worth it, considering the overall value and location. Washer/dryer have been approved for this apartment. There is an abundance of natural light, open views, tranquility, and privacy. Resident building manager accepts packages. Electronic key fob entry, storage bins available for rent, complimentary bike room and central laundry with new machines. Pets on a case by case basis. Appealingly atypical, lots of potential, and must be seen. Shown by appointment.
