Property Description for 45 Sutton Place South, PH-N
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 master 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!

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.
