## Property Overview

The focal point and highlight of this high-floor residence at Charing Cross House is the expansive, south-facing private terrace where you can grow your own basil and tomatoes! If private outdoor space is on your A list, 16B is a MUST-SEE! This bright and spacious mid-century gem has perfect bone structure; it could use anything from a cosmetic lift to a full makeover. Bring your architect or designer if you are thinking about creating the home of your dreams!

16B greets you with an elegant layout that begins with a spacious, proper foyer leading to flexible and oversized living areas. North and south exposures provide gorgeous natural light throughout the day. The generously sized L-shaped living/dining area will accommodate full size furniture without compromise and create the backdrop for making memories with friends and family. You might have to debate which might be the primary bedroom with each so well-proportioned that it is up for discussion! Whichever you choose, the second bedroom could be just about anything you need given its dimensions are that generous. Do you need closets? We’ve got you covered with seldom seen closet space. Whether you are looking for a full-time residence or a fabulous pied-a-terre, 16B will no doubt check off your boxes!

Charing Cross House is a luxury, full-service, 24-hour doorman cooperative located on one of the stateliest double-wide residential blocks in the city. Built in 1957, the 178-unit residence is comprised of two buildings; a 6-story north building facing East 73rd Street, which is connected by a wide corridor, to the 17-story south building facing East 72nd Street. The lobby, halls and elevators have all been tastefully renovated. Residents enjoy a state of the art 24-hour fitness center, on-site laundry, bicycle and storage rooms, and a live-in resident manager. Co-Purchasing and guarantors are permitted with board approval. Four-legged family members are welcome!

Located in the heart of the Upper East Side, residents are just blocks from Central Park and the entrance to the East River walkway. Restaurant options are almost endless with a plethora of dining options nearby, as well as boutiques, museums, and other cultural venues.

Sales data through June 2026.

Sale prices are the consideration recorded with the City in ACRIS, and each sale is dated by the day the City recorded it. A closing date reported to the MLS typically falls one to two weeks earlier. Recorded sales describe what has already happened and are not an appraisal, a valuation, or an estimate of what this home will sell for.
