Sunny, pristine Classic Six at elegant 55 East 72nd Street, between Park and Madison Avenues. Gracious six-room home on a high floor with a stately wood-burning fireplace with marble facade and many other Prewar details in a wonderful full-service, white-glove cooperative just one block from Central Park and Museum Mile. Enter this meticulously maintained home from its semi-private landing. The gallery features beautiful marble floors, French doors, and two closets for abundant storage. Sunshine pours into the living room via its full wall of windows and blue sky continues in the large corner dining room. The original, windowed, swinging door leads to the cheerful Chef's kitchen with top-of-the-line appliances, including a Sub-Zero refrigerator and brand-new LG range. The service entry is located this area as well. Off the kitchen, the well-proportioned staff room is currently being used as a home office. The mini-laundry room can easily be converted back to a powder room or additional full third bathroom. Quietly located off the gallery is the bedroom wing, well separated from the unit's entertaining areas. The well-appointed primary bedroom and serene second bedroom both have full ensuite bathrooms and offer extra-large and double closets. Hardwood floors, high-beamed ceilings, oversized windows, custom millwork, marble accents, paint by Farrow & Ball, and loving care and attention to every detail are found throughout this home. It is not to be missed. Gorgeous 55 East 72nd Street is a neo-Renaissance limestone and brick building designed in 1924 by Alfred Joseph Bodker. The building offers 24-hour doorman service, an exceptional full-time resident manager, private storage room, bike room, and a furnished rooftop garden. Pets, pieds-à-terre, and 40% financing are allowed with board approval. Located in the Upper East Side Historic District, this special building enjoys perhaps the best location in Lenox Hill and on the Upper East Side. Central Park is only yards from your doorway, and Museum Mile is around the corner. Madison Avenue's luxury boutiques and cafes include Ralph Lauren, Lanvin, Dolce & Gabbana, Apple, Ladure, and Prada, plus Casa Tua at The Surrey Hotel, Chez Fifi, Cafe Commerce, and many other new restaurants. Transportation options are abundant, with the 6, Q, and F trains, excellent bus service including the 72nd Street Crosstown to the Upper West Side, and CitiBikes-all nearby.
