This unique residence embodies the Sotheby's tradition of luxury living at every price point. Whether you're seeking a first home, a sophisticated pied-à-terre, a downsizer's dream, or the perfect Manhattan retreat, this oversized studio offers exceptional flexibility, value, and potential.

A gracious entry foyer welcomes you into the home and leads to a charming dining alcove adjacent to the separate windowed kitchen. Beyond, the expansive great room easily accommodates both living and sleeping areas, providing a comfortable and highly functional layout. On the opposite side of the kitchen, a separate bonus room offers remarkable versatility and can serve as a home office, lounge, fitness area, dressing room, or creative space.

With monthly maintenance of just $879, this is a rare opportunity to own a spacious Upper East Side residence in a premier full-service cooperative. Offered in its current condition and priced accordingly, the apartment invites its next owner to bring their designer, contractor, and vision to create a truly personalized home.

Additional amenities include a fitness center, private storage, bicycle room, laundry room, and direct-access garage.

Pied-à-terre ownership and co-purchasing are permitted with board approval. The building allows up to 75% financing and is subject to a 2% flip tax payable by the purchaser.

Perfectly situated in the heart of the Upper East Side, 165 East 72nd Street is moments from Central Park and surrounded by the neighborhood's finest offerings, including renowned museums, acclaimed restaurants ranging from beloved local favorites to Michelin-starred destinations, and some of the world's most prestigious shopping.
