Description

An expansive layout and open-sky views define this two-bedroom, two-bathroom residence in a well-run, full-service postwar co-op. Bring your architect and plan your Lenox Hill dream home less than 800 feet from Central Park. Inside this sun-splashed home, you are greeted by a gracious foyer with plenty of space for a mudroom bench or a home office area. Ahead, the oversized L-shaped living room and oversized dining alcove invite you to relax and entertain surrounded by hardwood floors, tall tray ceilings and a 17-foot-wide window framing wide-open treetop views to the north.

Inside the galley kitchen, you will find a spacious footprint for excellent cabinet space and full-size appliances alongside a convenient service entrance. In the separate bedroom wing, discover a spacious primary suite with northern and western views over historic gardens, a king-size layout, a walk-in closet and an en suite windowed bathroom. The second bedroom enjoys easy access to the large guest bathroom featuring an in-unit washer-dryer. Two additional closets and a deeded storage unit mean that storage space will never be a concern in this exceptional Upper East Side sanctuary awaiting your personal touch. Converted to cooperative use in 1979, 45 East 72nd Street is a beautifully maintained white-brick midcentury building where residents enjoy 24-hour doorman service, a live-in superintendent, canopied entrance, beautiful lobby, central laundry room, gym, storage and a bike room.

Up to 65% financing allowed. A 2% flip tax is paid by the buyer. Situated midblock between Madison and Park, this unrivaled residence delivers Lenox Hill prestige and convenience with direct access to Central Park’s 842 acres of iconic outdoor space. Stroll the world-famous institutions along Museum Mile or browse Madison Avenue’s luxe boutiques and cafés, including Ralph Lauren, Lanvin, Apple, Ladurée and Prada, all nearby. Transportation options are abundant with 6, Q and F trains, excellent bus service and CitiBikes all nearby.
