1 West 72nd Street, 97

Perched above the world famous Dakota gables sits an exclusive one bedroom apartment. This perfect Central Park West Pied-à-Terre or full-time residence is waiting for its next discerning owner. One bedroom apartments are a rare find within this iconic, white glove, full-service building, and this one does not disappoint! The apartment is full of light, hardwood floors, and has ample living space for the future owner to entertain, plus an open kitchen with a separate nook for dining. The generously sized bedroom features two casement windows, a large built-in shelving unit, and a California outfitted closet. Overall, this elusive home has an incredible amount of closet and storage space for a one-bedroom New York City apartment.

The fabled Dakota is one of the most iconic structures in New York City. The building was completed in 1884, and it established the standard for all elite apartment buildings in the City and is still considered one of the finest full-service buildings in Manhattan.

The building not only permits washer/dryers in units with board approval, but also includes a laundry center, extra storage, separate bike storage, a new gym, and an incredible roof deck. Pets are allowed and welcome. Full-time doormen, concierges and a plethora of building staff keep the level of service extraordinarily high.

The Dakota has limited showing times to ensure that residents are not disturbed. This exclusive building requires 50% down, and the rest may be financed with a mortgage. If you would like to set up a showing or have further questions, please reach out to the listing broker at Douglas Elliman. You can reach the listing broker by using the "contact agent" on this page, make sure you touch "seller's listing agent" on top of the form rather than "learn more". This will ensure you are directed to the correct person.

The photos are virtually staged. The apartment is a rare gem, and with the staging, one can imagine how perfect it truly is.
