Mint condition, prewar 8-into-7 room residence situated in an intimate, full-service cooperative on a prime, sun-drenched block of East 72nd Street. This expansive 3-bedroom, 3-bath home boasts an exceptional layout complemented by an elegant, thoughtfully executed renovation and sophisticated interior design. A semi-private elevator landing opens into a grand 29-foot gallery, setting the stage for the apartment’s superb scale and gracious flow. Off the gallery, the oversized, south-facing living room offers extraordinary light, a wood-burning fireplace with classic prewar character, and generous proportions ideal for both formal entertaining and comfortable living. The sun-filled, corner primary suite enjoys open exposures south and west, with a charming, leafy outlook toward Central Park. The suite features a spacious walk-in closet, custom built-ins, and beautifully integrated storage. The second and third bedrooms, also well-scaled, share a renovated full bath conveniently located off the gallery. An oversized dining room, currently configured as a dining room/den, offers wonderful flexibility for additional living space.
