345 East 56th Street, 10-C

Filled with designer touches and updates, this bright and airy home is the perfect move-in ready retreat in a premier Sutton Place postwar co-op.

Set high on the 10th floor, overlooking a quiet courtyard, this lovely home has a welcoming, serene quality that melts away city stress the moment you enter. Arrive in a generous foyer flanked by closets, including a huge walk-in, and take in the loft-like great room that stretches a full 30 feet long to wide sunny windows. This generous footprint offers an inviting flow for entertaining and plenty of room for arranging spacious living and dining areas. The beautifully renovated kitchen has been opened up to the great room to ensure an uninterrupted flow of light and conversation. Cooking is a joy here thanks to custom cabinets and brand-new stainless steel GE appliances, including a gas range, French-door refrigerator, built-in microwave and dishwasher.

A smart pocket door separates the living area from the rest of the tranquil home for optimal privacy. The sprawling king-size master bedroom includes another enviable walk-in California closet equipped with a stacked GE washer-dryer, and the second room features built-ins and a custom closet of its own. In between, the large bathroom boasts lovely tile-work, a roomy tub/shower and a new vanity cabinet with hidden hair dryer and accessory outlet. No detail was overlooked in creating a gorgeous home that's both comfortable and convenient. Hardwood floors, crown moldings and baseboards run throughout. All three HVAC units are brand-new with 30-year lifespans. Custom blackout shades grace the living room and master bedroom, and recessed wall kits remove AV cables and wires from view. Please note: This is a large one bedroom with a spacious den / bonus room.

Sutton East is a fantastic, well-maintained cooperative building offering 24-hour doorman service, live-in superintendent, storage, bike room, central laundry and on-site parking (at an additional fee). Recent building updates include a fully renovated lobby, new landscaped and furnished rooftop, upgraded HVAC and brand-new elevator mechanics. Co-purchasing, pied-a-terre's, guarantors, cats, and dogs up to 35 lbs. are permitted.
