Property Description for 165 East 72nd Street, 15-J

A must see stunning apartment in the heart of the Upper Eastside. This highly sought after J line apartment is a beautiful and bright 2 bedroom/2 bath in xxx mint condition, ready for you to move right in. Thoughtfully designed for easy and gracious living with top of the line finishes and appliances, recessed lighting and plenty of custom closets, this apartment is a must see. Walk into the spacious entry foyer and continue to the right into the large living room with beautiful clear views facing east. It has exquisite hardwood floors and extensive custom built-ins. The apartment is perfect for entertaining, with even a large above the counter portal from the living room to the kitchen so you can be in the kitchen and still be with your guests, but yet it is a separate kitchen room. Adjoining the living room is a large dining area with a separate entrance from the kitchen so food can easily be brought to the dining table.

To the left of the entry, separated from the living room, is the luxurious spacious primary bedroom with en-suite bath. Off this bedroom is a terrace where you can relax and enjoy the open views to the north, east and west as you sip your morning coffee or your evening drinks. The second bedroom (which is placed so it can also be used as a den) is off the foyer right before reaching the primary bedroom. The second bath is nearby and is also conveniently positioned so it can be used as a guest bath. Both baths have top of the line fixtures and are eloquently done. The windowed kitchen is beautiful, spacious and efficient with top of the line appliances, including a Subzero refrigerator, Miele dishwasher, Wolf stove and hood with vent, Wolf built-in drawer microwave and granite counters.

165 is a highly desired building at the perfect location for convenience and enjoyment of the east side with midtown and Central Park only a short walk away. It is a full service white glove building, including convenient entrances (door man serviced) on both 72nd Street and 73rd Street, a concierge desk and a live in super. This cooperative is known for its low maintenance and strong financials. A well-equipped gym on the lobby level, a garage, separate storage and a bike room all add to the desirability of the building. Washer/dryers are permitted, as are pets. 75% financing is allowed and pied-a-terres are welcome.

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.
