Klasični 8 Preratna elegancija susreće beskrajni potencijal…

Dobrodošli u ovu otmenu preratnu kuću na adresi 55 East 72nd Street, premijernoj zadruzi koja se nalazi između Park i Madison avenija. Izvorno klasična osmica s tri spavaće sobe, trenutno konfigurirana kao dvosobni stan, ova nekretnina je više od pedeset godina brižno čuvana od strane iste obitelji – sada spremna za svoju sljedeću priču.

Uđite iz polu-javne dizala koja dijelite samo s još jednom rezidencijom u veličanstvenu ulaznu hol, postavljajući ton za ovaj bezvremenski dom. Dvostruki dnevni boravak, okupan južnom svjetlošću s 15. kata, oslonjen je na rijetki dvostruki, drveni kamin – jedini te vrste u zgradi – i prikazuje šarmantne otvorene gradske poglede.

Tavernasti blagovaonica, s elegantnim proporcijama i sjevernom izloženošću, idealna je za intimno zabavljanje i lako može poslužiti kao ured ili medija soba. Vesela kuhinja s prozorima uživa u tri prozora okrenuta prema zapadu i može se proširiti kako bi uključila originalnu osobnu sobu, sada potpuno opremljenu pranju i skladišnom sobom s ventiliranim perilicom/sušilicom, plus praktičnom toaletom.

Glavna spavaća soba na uglu uživa u južnoj i istočnoj izloženosti, ispunjavajući prostor prirodnim svjetlom. Njena kupaonica s prozorom pruža priliku za proširenje. Druga spavaća soba, trenutno korištena kao ured ili medija, ima vlastitu kupaonicu. Originalna treća spavaća soba besprijekorno je uključena u životni prostor, ali se lako može obnoviti. Ovaj dom ispunjen je bezvremenskim detaljima pre-ratnog razdoblja, uključujući visoke stropove, drvene podove i obilje prostora za odlaganje.

Zamislite kako započinjete jutro s kavom iz Ralpha i svježe pečenim bagelom iz Eli's Marketa prije nego krenete u šetnju kroz Central Park, udaljen samo jedan blok. Okruženi ste luksuznim buticima Madison Avenue i nekim od najboljih restorana u gradu, tipičnim načinom života na Upper East Sideu.

Dizajniran 1924. godine od strane Alfreda Josepha Bodkera, 55 East 72nd Street je ugledna neo-renesansna zgrada od vapnenca i opeke, sa uslugom portira 24 sata, menadžerom koji živi u zgradi, privatnim skladištem, prostorijom za bicikle i prekrasno namještenim krovnim vrtom. Kućni ljubimci, pieds-à-terre i do 40% financiranja dopušteni su uz odobrenje uprave. Kupac plaća porez na preprodaju od 2%.

Classic 8 Prewar elegance meets endless potential…

Welcome to this gracious prewar home at 55 East 72nd Street, a premier cooperative ideally situated between Park and Madison Avenues. Originally a classic eight with three bedrooms, currently configured as a two-bedroom, this residence has been lovingly cared for by the same family for more than fifty years—now ready for its next chapter.

Enter from a semi-private elevator landing shared with only one other residence into a grand entry foyer, setting the tone for this timeless home. The double-width living room, bathed in southern light from the 15th floor, is anchored by a rare double-wide, wood-burning fireplace—the only one of its kind in the building—and showcases charming open city views.

The formal dining room, with its elegant proportions and northern exposure, is ideal for intimate entertaining and could easily serve as a den or media room. The cheery, windowed eat-in kitchen enjoys three west-facing windows and can be expanded to include the original staff room, now a fully equipped laundry and storage room with vented washer/dryer, plus a convenient powder room.

The corner primary bedroom enjoys both southern and eastern exposures, filling the space with natural light. Its windowed bath offers the opportunity for expansion. The second bedroom, currently used as a den or office, has an en suite bath. The original third bedroom has been seamlessly incorporated into the living space but can easily be restored. This home is filled with timeless pre-war details, including high ceilings, hardwood floors, and generous storage space throughout.

Imagine starting your morning with coffee from Ralph’s and a freshly baked bagel from Eli’s Market before taking a stroll through Central Park, just one block away. You’re surrounded by Madison Avenue’s luxury boutiques and some of the city’s finest restaurants, the quintessential Upper East Side lifestyle.

Designed in 1924 by Alfred Joseph Bodker, 55 East 72nd Street is a distinguished neo-Renaissance limestone and brick cooperative with 24-hour doorman service, a live-in resident manager, private storage, bike room, and a beautifully furnished rooftop garden. Pets, pieds-à-terre, and up to 40% financing are permitted with board approval. A 2% flip tax is paid by the buyer.
