Carpe Diem. Price reduced to $2,675,000 and $3,000/month maintenance rebate offered for the first five years of ownership.

This beautifully renovated seven-room apartment is set in a boutique doorman building of full-floor homes. Perfectly sited between Park and Lexington Avenues, the 8th floor at 132 East 72nd St. is in mint condition. The windows are oversized and the views to the north, south and west are lovely.

From a private elevator vestibule, one enters a grand gallery. To the right is an elegant living room, with a wood-burning fireplace, that adjoins an oversized dining room. Both rooms face onto 72nd Street.

Straight ahead from the gallery is a gourmet's kitchen, with Viking, Subzero and Miele appliances. The staff room was combined with the kitchen to create a sprawling suburban-style great room with adjacent half bath and laundry room.

The southern wing of the apartment hosts three generously sized bedrooms and two more bathrooms. Each bathroom is finished with elegant white stone and Kallista hardware. The closet space is exceptional.

Located in the heart of the Upper East Side, 132 East 72nd Street is close to Central Park, fine dining, museums, and shopping galore. Amenities include a large private storage unit which trades with the apartment, as well as a doorman, super, and handyman. Pets are welcome. There is a 2% flip tax. Call for a private appointment.

Please note that the maintenance rebate equals a total savings of $180,000. This is truly the best valued co-op of its class on the Upper East Side.
