Description

FULLY FURNISHED. IMPECCABLY DESIGNED. COMPLETELY TURNKEY. Residence 12A at The Sutton is an immaculate, professionally designed three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath condominium spanning 1,947 square feet—now offered fully furnished, with its sophisticated interiors and curated furnishings by designer Rob Southern included in the purchase price. Very lightly used as a pied-à-terre, the home is in pristine condition. Three exposures—north, south and west—fill the residence with exceptional natural light by day, while open city views and twinkling Manhattan lights create a striking backdrop after dark. Oversized casement windows, ceilings over 10 feet and wide-plank oak floors further enhance the home’s sense of scale and light. A gracious entry gallery leads to the nearly 30-foot living and dining room, beautifully proportioned for both entertaining and everyday living. The adjoining chef’s kitchen features custom cabinetry, Gaggenau appliances and an oversized center island. The serene primary suite offers generous closets and a luxurious Calacatta marble bath with radiant heated floors, dual vanity, soaking tub and separate shower. Two additional bedrooms provide flexibility for family, guests or a home office. Custom window treatments, individually controlled central HVAC and a brand-new in-unit washer and dryer complete the home. Designed by celebrated architect Thomas Juul-Hansen, The Sutton is an intimate, full-service condominium with 24-hour doorman and concierge, fitness center, residents’ lounge and landscaped courtyard, children’s playroom, cold storage and bicycle storage. Beautifully designed, impeccably maintained and ready from day one. Bring your suitcase. Everything else is already here.

Broker Commission Disclosure: Broker commissions are not set by law and are fully negotiable.

How working with a buyer's agent works: I work for you, not the seller. Before I show you anything, New York brokerage rules ask us to put that in writing: an agreement and a disclosure that say I work for you and negotiate on your behalf. The agreement is non-exclusive: you can work with other agents, it runs for a short fixed term we agree on, and you can end it with a note. You may attend open houses independently without an agreement. Read how it works
