Description
A rare and expansive prewar residence at 150 East 72nd Street, this five-bedroom, 3,543-square-foot home seamlessly blends prewar elegance and scale with the ease of contemporary condominium living on the Upper East Side.
A private landing opens directly onto the home's gracious gallery, setting the tone for the soaring ceilings, beautiful prewar details, and generous proportions found throughout.
The expansive living and dining room is framed by four large windows, filling the space with western light and offering exceptional scale for both entertaining and everyday living.
The windowed eat-in kitchen is a true chef's kitchen, outfitted with Carrara marble countertops, white shaker cabinetry, and a full suite of stainless steel Miele appliances, including an oversized refrigerator and freezer, five-burner range, wall oven, warming drawer, sink, and two dishwashers. A butler's pantry just off the kitchen provides an additional sink, cabinetry and counter space, and dedicated wine storage.
The primary suite occupies its own corner of the home and enjoys both northern and western exposures. The generously proportioned bedroom is complemented by a walk-in closet and adjoining library, ideal as a home office or sitting room. Two windowed ensuite bathrooms complete the suite; one features a deep soaking tub and glass-enclosed shower, while the other offers a large glass-enclosed shower.
Three additional bedrooms each feature their own ensuite bathroom, finished in natural stone with custom cabinetry. A fifth, flexible room with its own ensuite bath and adjacent laundry area can serve as an additional bedroom, staff room, home office, or guest room. The home also features a powder room and two service entrances, one off the main living space and a second accessible from the fifth room, allowing for exceptional flexibility and privacy.
Additional notable features include high ceilings, beautiful prewar moldings, and tree-lined views over Lexington Avenue and East 72nd Street.
Built in 1914 and converted to condominium in 2014, 150 East 72nd Street is a boutique, white-glove condominium with just 24 residences. Amenities include a 24-hour doorman and porter, live-in resident manager, fitness center, children's playroom, residents' lounge with catering kitchen, and bike storage.
