Property Description for 313 East 56th Street, 3-C

Find peace in this centrally and conveniently located two-bedroom, two-bathroom modern co-op away from all the chaos of city life!

This quiet and quaint home was recently renovated and features elegant finishes such as hardwood oak flooring throughout. Jerusalem gold stone slabs inlaid within the rich floors, complemented by a coffered ceiling, greet you upon entry in the minimalist foyer.

The open custom kitchen has been upgraded with high-end appliances such as a Sub-Zero refrigerator, Bosch dishwasher, Varenna gas cooktop and Gaggenau oven — some of which are integrated into the surrounding cabinetry. There is a built-in appliance garage above the oven for small appliances with plenty of room for a microwave, keeping the beautiful countertop and backsplash free of clutter. Additional features include a vented hood, hands-free Delta faucet, Franke filtration system and ultra-sleek dropdown bar.

The living room offers multiple lighting choices to suit the right mood. The custom TV console has all the wiring necessary for any AV enthusiast, including remote connections for all devices in a nearby closet as well as local wiring, giving you the option to keep equipment nearby. The exposed brick wall and view of charming seasonal greenery on the adjacent facade accentuate the unit's prewar charm.

The master bedroom features a built-in dresser, office "tower," bookshelf and ample closets set within the wallpapered room. The en-suite bathroom features heated flooring as well as a soaking tub with a white Carrara deck which complements the custom vanity. His and hers medicine cabinets and sconces are by Restoration Hardware. Plumbing fixtures include an undermount Kohler sink, Waterworks lavatory and shower as well as a Toto toilet. Ample storage space has also been cleverly integrated.

The second bedroom features a charming chair rail trim, concealed doors, custom plaster crown molding and window surrounds containing the radiator. The secondary full bathroom showcases a suspended ceiling with perimeter strip lighting, wall-mounted sink, Hansgrohe fixtures, curbless walk-in shower and Duravit toilet. A stacked Miele washer-and-dryer laundry tower is integrated within the ample storage space.

The meticulous nature of this renovation has yielded ample storage throughout. Among other fabulous upgrades include new insulated windows, screwless Lutron dimmers, central air, custom crowns and trim, high-end hardware, solid wood doors and all-new internal plumbing. There is also an additional storage cage in the basement at no additional monthly cost (the approximate size is 5 feet by 5 feet).

Nestled on a peaceful tree-lined block, 313 E. 56th St. is a charming prewar building with less than 15 units. The cooperative is self-managed, offering a friendly atmosphere and resulting in a low monthly maintenance fee. The remodeling of the main entry lobby has been approved to take place this summer. The scope of work will include a video intercom system, security cameras, contemporary finishes, new entry doors, upgraded lighting and detail work throughout.

Residents have quick access to excellent shopping and dining, local hot spots, top-rated public schools such as P.S. 59 – Beekman Hill International, multiple playgrounds, top-notch fitness clubs and the E, F, M, 4, 5, 6, N, Q, R and W subway lines less than a few blocks away.

Steam heat, water, taxes and gas are included as part of the maintenance.

Small pets only — sorry, no dogs allowed.

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.
