About This Home

212 East 72nd Street is a vacant shell, formerly a single-family residence, complete with a curb cut for a private garage. With approved Department of Buildings plans in hand, the future owner can begin construction immediately to create a bespoke home. The existing structure encompasses approximately 5,200 square feet across five levels plus a cellar. The property offers five private outdoor spaces: a large south-facing garden, two covered terraces, a roof deck, and a portico at the penthouse level. Set on an oversized 102-foot-deep lot, the home benefits from abundant natural light at both the front and rear. The maximum buildable area is approximately 18,220 square feet; which, should be independently verified. Situated on East 72nd Street between Second and Third Avenues, the property is located in the heart of the Lenox Hill neighborhood on the Upper East Side and enjoys proximity to the area’s impressive array of cultural pursuits, public transportation, highly ranked schools, Madison & Lexington Avenues shopping, galleries, and eateries.
