Enjoy beautiful open city views, magical at night, from this bright and quiet, corner double-exposure studio at Charing Cross House, an impeccable full-service doorman building located on East 72nd Street, one of the most beautiful double-wide residential blocks in the city. Ideal as a first home or pied--terre, the studio includes an entry foyer, a generous living area with hardwood floors, and a wall of built-ins accommodating a queen bed, a work-from-home desk, and ample storage. The window above the built-in desk offers diagonal city views and cross-ventilation. The built-in bed allows the studio to function as a spacious living/dining room during the day and a cozy bedroom suite at night. If you prefer a more conventional studio layout, you can easily remove the wall of built-ins. The kitchen features stainless appliances, ample cabinetry, granite countertops and a ceramic tile floor. The windowed bathroom features classic white-tiled walls, white marble-tiled floor, and an oversized closet. There are also two over-sized closets in the entry foyer area. Charing Cross House is a well-managed, full-service co-op offering 24-hour doorman service, a stately marble lobby, state-of-the-art 24-hour fitness center, on-site laundry room, bike and storage rooms, and a live-in resident manager. Youre also just minutes away from Whole Foods, Citarellas, Graces Marketplace, Target, Equinox and countless restaurants and shops. For recreation and relaxation, Central Park, the crown jewel of Manhattan, is just a few blocks away. The building is conveniently located across the street from the 72nd Street subway station for the Q train, which provides you with easy connection access to many major subway lines throughout Manhattan. There are also several Citi Bike stations nearby, including one across the street. The M72 crosstown bus stop is just across the street as well. The 6 train on Lexington Avenue is also easily accessible. The low monthly maintenance fee of $1,002.02 makes this home even more compelling. The building permits pets and pied-a-terres. There is a monthly assessment for capital improvements of $144.05 per month through February 2026.
