Property Description for 60 Sutton Place South, 2-HS

Make lush garden views your daily backdrop in this gorgeous garden home, a one-bedroom (easily converted to two bedrooms), one-bathroom co-op in highly sought-after Sutton Place.


Lined with oversized windows framing the building's private gardens, this spacious abode is filled with sunlight and has a rare and desirable indoor-outdoor ambiance. The outdoor wonderland, brimming with magnolias and hydrangeas paired with some architectural ingenuity produces a strikingly quiet and beautiful sanctuary that imparts a feeling of seclusion and tranquility. As a purely decorative space, the secured roof garden allows no foot traffic to interrupt your peaceful views, privacy or security. Tall ceilings and hardwood floors frame the bright and airy living and dining room and the adjacent kitchen offers tons of cabinet space and a convenient service entrance. The generously sized bedroom easily accommodates a king-size bed, and the windowed nook is an ideal spot for reading or lounging. Draped in Italian marble, the en suite bathroom is an upscale oasis, and four large closets placed conveniently throughout the home ensure storage will never be a concern.


60 Sutton Place South is a full service postwar cooperative boasting a circular driveway and porte-cochere entry. Residents of the pet-friendly building enjoy full-time doorman and concierge service, live-in superintendent, onsite parking garage, gym, storage, and bike room.


Located in one of New York City's most desirable enclaves, this fine neighborhood enjoys both residential tranquility and spectacular convenience. Dining, shopping, and services line the nearby streets of Midtown East, and the U.N. is just five blocks south. Situated directly across from the Sutton Place Park green, this lovely home is inches away from breathtaking East River views and outdoor space. Enjoy miles of uninterrupted waterfront paths along East River Promenade, or head under the 59th Street Bridge to find two well-maintained dog runs. Transportation is effortless from this accessible neighborhood with E, M and 6 trains and multiple bus lines nearby.

Sutton Place | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Sutton Place is usually described with favorable words like charming, cozy, great neighborhood, hidden gem, sanctuary, or even small village inside a big city. Those descriptions aren’t from real estate folks either, they’re from the people that live and work there, so it must be true.

The quiet and upscale neighborhood is more like an enclave. It’s bounded by East 53rd Street to the south, East 59th Street to the North, First Avenue to the west, and the East River to the east. Most residents will tell you that everything you’ll ever need is located in the neighborhood. When it’s time to venture out into the cityscape, Sutton Place is within easy reach to Midtown and cultural attractions like the Museum of Modern Art, Rockefeller Center, Central Park and other iconic sites.   

Manhattan has always had notable celebrity residents. But for unknown reasons, Sutton Place has had more than its share of superstars over the years. Some of the more iconic celebs include: Marilyn Monroe and Arthur Miller, Freddie Mercury, Sigourney Weaver, Joan Crawford, Michael Jackson and sister Latoya (Just for one summer).

Sutton Place is named after Effingham B. Sutton, a shipping merchant and entrepreneur. After hitting it big in the California gold rush, Sutton built brownstones along East 57th and East 58th streets with aspirations of making the section more residential. Poverty and crime dashed his dreams. The street gangs that hung out along the dead-ends and cul-de-sacs added to the neighborhood’s decay. Sutton was about to give up on his development endeavors but the Vanderbilt’s and the Morgan’s showed up in the 1920s and transformed the neighborhood. It soon became a wealthy enclave.
