18 stories above the skyline in a distinguished 1930s cooperative, this extraordinary 3-bedroom, 4.5 bathroom penthouse offers an unparalleled level of privacy and tranquility, making it a true oasis in the heart of the city. With a spacious 2,525 square feet of interior living space, complemented by 675 square feet of outdoor sanctuary, this home is a rare gem that combines urban luxury with serene seclusion.
With super big views south to midtown, light streams in the oversized windows at all hours of the day. The high ceilings, large rooms, and separation of space makes this unusual duplex feel like a townhouse in the sky. PHB has terraces on both the north and south sides and en suite bathrooms for every bedroom.
PHB has been updated dramatically and all areas refreshed. This is a plug-n-play opportunity to bring your toothbrush. There is central A/C, double paned windows, hardwood floors, heavy doors, and an in-unit washer/dryer.
Setting PHB apart from peers is its private elevator landing, windowed baths, a separate and deeded staff room on the ground floor. The highly sought after ground floor staff room can be used for dwelling, as an office, child's playroom, or home gym. It can also be sold to shareholders within the cooperative.
320 East 72nd Street is a wonderfully maintained 1930s white-glove cooperative. The construction is exceptionally solid and the facade, roof, and roof terrace recently finished in a major overhaul. The lobby has been impeccably renovated and the building continues to upgrade its facilities to preserve the best of the pre-war era with conveniences and technology of today.
*A third party, FloorPlanSource, states the interior gross square footage to be approximately 2,525SF. In addition there is an external staff room off the ground floor.
