300 West 72nd Street Upper West Side Apartment For Sale

THE LILIEN'S QUIET SANCTUARY AT 300 WEST 72ND STREET
Apartment 3A offers a wonderful opportunity to own in H. Herbert Lilien's distinguished 1941 Moderne gem - one of the Upper West Side's most beloved cooperatives. Designed for gracious living, The Lilien's generously proportioned apartments blend Moderne and Art Deco elements throughout, and 3A captures the building's timeless character beautifully. The apartment's graceful flow begins with a generous entry foyer - grand enough to also host a dining area. This space opens to a signature sunken living room with soaring 9' high ceilings, well-appointed archways, built-in bookshelves, hardwood floors, and curved moldings at every turn.

With three exposures, the apartment enjoys a bright and pleasant quality throughout. The king-sized bedroom faces south, stretching an impressive 16'8" in length, drawing in warm natural light and looking out onto lovely treetop views - a peaceful, green retreat at the end of the day. The windowed kitchen is outfitted with stainless steel appliances and a dishwasher, conveniently located off the entry foyer. A windowed bath completes the apartment's thoughtful layout. Four closets complete the picture, offering the kind of storage rarely found in a one-bedroom co-op.

300 West 72nd Street is an intimate 34-residence cooperative designated within the West End-Collegiate Historic District, whose period 1940s interiors have appeared on the big screen. Impeccably managed by a dedicated live-in Resident Manager, the building's common areas retain their original terrazzo floors and period décor alongside an elevator, state-of-the-art surveillance, remote front-door access via mobile phone, a new laundry room, and a secure bike room. Flexible purchase policies include pieds-à-terre, co-purchases, guarantors, gifting, and subletting. Pets are welcome.

Ideally positioned at one of the Upper West Side's most desirable intersections, the location delivers an unparalleled lifestyle. Riverside Park's waterfront paths and the Hudson River lie half a block west - just steps from the dog run and the beloved statue of Eleanor Roosevelt - while Central Park and Lincoln Center are moments to the east. Kossar's Bagels and Bialys is across the street, with Fairway, Zabar's, and Trader Joe's all nearby. The 72nd Street station (1/2/3 lines) is one block away. World-class dining, celebrated museums, and the full cultural richness of the Upper West Side complete this quintessential address.
