Tastefully refined, this nine-into-seven room triple mint apartment is located in a prominent prewar cooperative just off Park Avenue. Accessed via a semi-private elevator landing, this apartment depicts a design that reflects timeless elegance and creates a seamless flow for entertaining and living. Well located off the 23 foot entrance gallery is the graciously proportioned 24 foot living room featuring a wood burning fireplace, 9 foot ceilings and southern views of treetops on 72nd Street. The generous master bedroom has an ensuite bathroom and separate dressing area with walk-in closet. The second bedroom is well located off the bedroom hallway and accesses a full bathroom on the hall. The chic square shaped formal dining room and 18 foot library add ample space for elegant entertaining and comfortable living. A newly renovated oversized eat-in-kitchen boasts top of the line appliances, custom millwork, beautiful hardwood floors, and a cheery tree-filled exposure overlooking townhouse gardens. It has been thoughtfully designed to accommodate large scale entertaining needs as well as daily life. Completing this lovely home is a windowed laundry room and a private third bedroom that acts as a perfect guest suite with full bath. Built as a cooperative in 1927, 117 East 72nd Street is a coveted white glove building with a full complement of staff headed by a live-in resident manager. This is a rare opportunity for purchase.
