Description

Welcome to your new home in the heart of Sutton Place, where every detail is designed for comfort and versatility. This spacious 965 sq. ft. Junior 4 apartment not only offers the convenience and style you’re looking for but also comes with thoughtful updates that make city living a breeze. From the moment you step inside, you'll notice the warm glow of Southern light and hardwood floors that run throughout the entire apartment. The living and dining area is bright and welcoming, perfect for both relaxing and entertaining, complete with a contemporary built-in bar and TV cabinet for a sleek, clutter-free environment. The recently renovated kitchen features quartzite countertops and an open design that invites conversation and culinary adventures. The primary bedroom is a generously sized sanctuary with ample room for a king-sized bed, and two custom walk-in closets, providing exceptional storage space. The apartment shines with versatility, thanks to a windowed second bedroom, enclosed by elegant French doors. This space is equipped with a custom walnut Murphy bed, and is perfect for a nursery, home office, or a guest bedroom. Storage will never be a concern, with abundant closet space throughout the apartment ensuring a clutter-free and organized living environment. The entire apartment has been skim-coated and repainted with Farrow & Ball paint. Located in Sutton Gardens, you'll enjoy co-op value, with condo-like flexibility. The co-op allows pets, pied-à-terres, sublets, guarantors and co-purchasing, with board approval. With 24-hour doormen, on-site laundry, and a location that’s both tranquil and convenient, this building offers a lifestyle that’s hard to match. Steps away from several parks, the East River, and the vibrancy of New York City, life here is about enjoying every moment. Essentials are within easy reach, including Trader Joe’s and Whole Foods within three blocks, and excellent transportation links, like the crosstown M57 bus and nearby E, M, and 6 subway lines, ensuring the best of New York is at your doorstep. New to the neighborhood in December 2023, the East Midtown Greenway offers residents an added bonus—a scenic waterfront esplanade that stretches from East 53rd to East 60th Street. This beautiful outdoor space is perfect for leisurely strolls, cycling, or simply enjoying the river views, enhancing the quality of life for Sutton Place residents. Please note, there is currently an assessment of $652.50 per month, to cover the cost of an extensive lobby and garden renovation which will greatly enhance the value and appeal of the building. The assessment runs until December 2024.
