Create your dream home! This grand and bright Classic 7-room home is a fine example of elegant prewar architecture with abundant detail, generous scale and a gracious layout that offers a perfect balance for both entertaining and living. Exceptional northern light fills the high-floor home and showcases breathtaking, open unobstructed Hudson River, Riverside Park and open city views from the living Room and all three bedrooms! This spectacular vantage point at the south foot of the park offers full enjoyment of distant views all the way to the George Washington Bridge as well as a front row seat to the spectacular change of seasons through the beauty of the Park. The scenic vistas also overlook historic and exquisite architecture so distinctive of the neighborhood and the Eleanor Roosevelt statue in the circle of the southern tip of the Park.
This rare offering provides an ideal opportunity to become only the 2nd owner of this special home as it has been wonderfully maintained by the same owner since the building converted to coop. The flexibility of the floor plan also offers a unique chance to customize the apartment according to personal preference, style and layout.
The formal expanse flows naturally with living room, formal dining room, kitchen and grand entry foyer. The windowed kitchen can easily be opened (similar of renovations done in other 'B' lines in the building-see alternate floor plan) to the dining room and features an original windowed staff room and full bathroom. A separate resident's wing includes 3 spacious bedrooms each exposing sweeping open views of the River and Park as well as two full bathrooms.
Original old-world detail and scale can be found throughout with nearly 9 1/2 foot beamed ceilings, French doors, crown and baseboard moldings and hardwood floors. There is very generous closet storage throughout the home.
322 West 72nd Street is a handsome well-run, full service building with a large, well-maintained landscaped roof deck with lush plantings and a community herb garden and a gym. Washers and dryers are permitted.
