Designed by renowned architects Rosario Candela and Mott B. Schmidt and completed in 1937, 19 East 72nd Street is considered by many to be an architectural masterwork, and it is among the Upper East Side’s finest addresses. Within, this splendid high-floor residence enjoys an abundance of sunlight, extremely attractive and open outlooks, and high ceilings. Further, its thoughtful and inviting layout, marvelous scale, and inherent elegance of the apartment are complemented by copious period detail. Accessed by a private elevator landing, the large and welcoming Gallery opens to two glorious entertainment rooms, the Living Room and the Library. At 30 feet in length, the Living Room boasts impressive scale, a wood-burning fireplace, and sweeping vistas both south and west, the latter towards Central Park. Adjacent, the charming Library also has a wood-burning fireplace and shares the Living Room’s delightfully open unobstructed southern outlooks over East 72nd Street’s gorgeous limestone townhouses and to the glittering cityscape beyond. The Gallery, Living Room, and Library all feature authentic 18th-century parquet de Versailles floors. Adjacent to the Living Room, a stately round Dining Room has open northern and western vistas and a marble floor. From the Gallery, a Powder Room and a coat closet are conveniently accessible. Beyond, a proper service Pantry leads to a bright and cheerful Kitchen and Breakfast Room, all of which have open northern and western outlooks. These three rooms could easily be unified to create a very sizable and inviting Kitchen. Delightfully, a planting terrace runs the full length along the northern façade of these rooms. The private quarters, delightfully tranquil, remain entirely separate from the rest of the residence. An elegant Primary Bedroom with painted wood paneling and a decorative fireplace has open vistas and sublime southern light, as well as a glamorous marble bathroom with a soaking tub and a spacious separate shower. A second generously-sized Bedroom is fortunate to share the same gorgeous south-facing views and light as the Primary Bedroom and has an ensuite bath. Nearby, a third Bedroom, currently configured as an extremely ample dressing room, wood-paneled and fitted with custom closets, has panoramic open vistas to the north and an ensuite bath, which is currently configured as a small office. In addition, nearby, there is a large double Staff Bedroom, with its own bath. The private quarters benefit from extraordinarily ample closets throughout. Among its many significant architectural attributes, 19 East 72nd Street features an impressive and attractive lobby with outlooks onto a stylish central courtyard garden. The limestone building’s canopied entrance is framed by a series of distinctive bas-relief animals by the sculptor C. Paul Jennewein, whose work is central to the design at Rockefeller Center. Impeccable services at this white-glove cooperative include a 24-hour doorman, porters, and a resident manager. 19 East 72nd Street also features a private fitness center and offers designated storage bins. The building has no summer work rules and permits financing up to 50%. Pets are welcome.
