Property Description for 515 East 72nd Street, 14-J

This newly renovated one-bedroom condo with private balcony and in-unit washer/dryer offers bright, open city views through floor-to-ceiling windows, custom-designed closets, a spa-like bathroom, and 40,000 square feet of amenities that cannot be beat!

This move-in ready home has walnut hardwood floors throughout and a living room that is large enough to accommodate a separate dining area. The balcony is off the living room and can accommodate a table and chairs, perfect for morning coffee or dining al fresco.

The king-size bedroom offers excellent storage with custom-designed closets. Other custom upgrades include electronic blackout shades and an elegant accent wall.

The pass through kitchen can easily accommodate a breakfast bar and features top of the line appliances by Miele, Thermador and Liebherr, Corian countertops, handcrafted walnut and lacquered cabinetry, and Basaltina lava stone backsplash.

The spa-like bathroom is equipped with high-end finishes, including custom designed Crema d'Orcia limestone in bamboo texture and honed Piombo sandstone tiles, Zuma soaking tub with Watermark fixtures, and large mirrored-vanity cabinets.

All of this in a full-service building with unparalleled amenities, including a state-of-the-art fitness center, 56' heated saltwater lap pool with two hot tubs, indoor rock-climbing wall, basketball, squash, and racquetball courts, a full spa, outdoor decks, an onsite garage, a half-acre private park, a residents' lounge, complimentary weekday breakfast, in-house dry cleaning, and a 24/hour doorman/concierge and valet service. As if that weren't enough, there is a creative arts studio/activity space available for both private functions and scheduled group classes. There is also an extraordinary, fully appointed kitchen that hosts regularly scheduled cooking and nutrition classes.

While you may never want to leave the building, there are many excellent restaurants, shops, and parks in the immediate area. The building is conveniently located just 2 blocks away from the Q train, a short walk from the 6 train, and offers easy access to the FDR Drive. The M31 also stops directly across the street, makes it way down York Avenue, and then goes across town on 57th Street.

Upper East Side | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Exuding a cosmopolitan, refined air that is reminiscent of Paris or other European cities, the Upper East Side (the UES, to local cognoscenti) has a reputation as being a bastion of wealth and privilege. Even though it was built by American “royalty” families like the Vanderbilts, Roosevelts, Kennedys, Carnegies and Rockefellers, whose elaborate mansions once anchored Fifth Avenue, there are affordable housing options throughout the neighborhood. The further east you move, away from Central Park and the more commercial avenues, the more likely you are to find quiet, tree-lined streets with historic townhouses and brownstones. Keep your eye out for reasonably priced apartments in pre-war low-rise and even a few high-rise buildings.

With abundant, beautifully landscaped green spaces, including the oasis of Central Park acting like a backyard, the area is quiet and lushly green. You can relax and unwind in John Jay Park, Carl Schurz Park or take a stroll along the East River Promenade. The whole neighborhood seems isolated from the workaday chaos of the city at large. Add to that the history of the neighborhood and the abundance of cultural institutions, and you have a uniquely welcoming neighborhood.

Known for its abundance of high-end retail shopping, especially on Madison Avenue, the Upper East Side is host to the Barneys New York flagship department store. Here you can find upscale goods, fashion and home decor items. You will also find the edgy runway-inspired Alexander McQueen collections. If you are dying to treat your feet to red-soled opulence, be sure to visit the Christian Louboutin boutique. These are only a small sampling of this high-end shopper’s paradise that features everything from designer boutiques that offer the ultimate in haute couture to resale shops where you can find last season’s best on sale at hefty discounts .

There are many unique dining experiences, from fine dining to the casual bite-on-the-go, awaiting you in the UES. Sushi is going through a renaissance in the city, and the best omakase-style sushi can be found at Sasabune on E 73rd Street. Omakase sushi means that you leave the choice of ingredients, preparation method and presentation to the chef. Elegant French cuisine can be experienced at JoJo, E 64th Street, housed in gorgeous townhouse. Just for fun, visit the Lexington Candy Shop on Lexington Avenue, to get a taste of an old-fashioned soda fountain.
