45 Sutton Place S #PHN

The breathtaking views down the East River from this penthouse home with two private terraces are immediately apparent upon entering the foyer into the spacious, light-filled living room and dining area. The predominant views are south (and east and west) from those rooms, and one can step out onto the south terrace for even more expansive East River and City views that include such landmarks as the United Nations, the Louis Kahn-designed Four Freedoms Park, the iconic Pepsi-Cola sign in Queens, the Williamsburg Bridge and beyond, and allow one to watch the busy river traffic. There is even a view north up Sutton Place toward the 59th Street Bridge and views of some of Midtowns most famous high rises from the nearly 38 long west terrace off both bedrooms.The lofty living space features 9+ foot ceilings, custom track-lighting, hardwood floors, marble baths and built-ins throughout. Excellent for entertaining, the dining area is adjacent to the finely crafted windowed kitchen complete with richly mottled granite counter-tops, Subzero refrigerator, cork flooring, cove lighting and a large custom pantry with a glass door that matches the glass back-splashes behind the counters. The huge 17-2 X 16-10 primary bedroom has two walk-in closets and an en-suite travertine marble bathroom. Sorry, no dogs and no subleasing. Pied-a-terres permitted. There is a 2% flip tax paid by buyer. $105 assessment until 12/31/2015. There will be an assessment for lobby and hallway renovation starting in March 2015. The Maintenance Includes Utilities!
