Property Description for 40 West 72nd Street, 166

Amazing panoramic VIEWS of the midtown skyline are enjoyed from this beautiful three bedroom, two and a half bath, mint-condition home. Located less than a block from Central Park, in the most prime location of the Upper West Side, this pre-war home features six expansive windows showcasing a spectacular unobstructed 16th floor view south. Light streams into the open-plan living and dining room; and kitchen and baths are newly renovated. The large fully equipped, windowed eat-in chef's kitchen features Viking appliances and Carrera marble counters. The spacious private suite has an over-sized bedroom that accommodates a king bed, seating area, walk-in closets and full marble bath with Waterworks fixtures, dual sinks and a rainfall shower and steam system. Two additional bedrooms feature large windows and fully equipped closets. This lovely apartment is pin-drop quiet and boasts hardwood floors throughout, 9 ft ceilings, an abundance of storage, an in-unit laundry room with washer-dryer, and its own central A/C system (no building recirculated air!).

The Bancroft is a historic prewar full service co-op. The building features concierge, doorman service, bike/storage space, an attended lobby, and laundry. It is pet friendly and pied-a-terres are allowed. Local public transportation includes the B/C and the 1/2/3 subway lines; and bus stops both N/S and E/W on the corner. Neighborhood groceries are Trader Joe's, Fairway, and Citarella's. Coffee shops, chic clothiers, top-rated restaurants and bars abound. The best of classic New York and modern living amenities.

Lincoln Square | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Centered, in name and location, around the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, Lincoln Square’s history is heavily steeped in strong African American and Afro-Caribbean roots. Iconic jazz pianist, Thelonious Monk, is counted among its many former artistic and professional denizens.

The neighborhood is beloved for its amazing shopping, its distinguished art scene, and phenomenal restaurants--and don’t forget Central Park. From Lincoln Square, one is at the gateway to virtually everything New York City has to offer, either in your backyard or via excellent subway access.

With its beautiful pre-war architecture surrounded by some of NYC’s premier skyscrapers, Lincoln Square has become a safe, much sought after neighborhood. If you like living in the action, there are few places in the world that can rival Lincoln Square.
