Property Description for 235 East 57th Street, 5-B

This is a very generously proportioned one bedroom, one bathroom cooperative apartment with a well-designed recent renovation. The apartment opens to a spacious entry foyer with a double wide closet to your left. To the right is a renovated and expanded open kitchen which features GE stainless steel appliances (dishwasher, gas range and stove), glass tile backsplash, and Caesarstone counter tops. The living room has been updated with recessed lighting and a built in bookcase that houses the radiator and Friedrich through-the-wall- air conditioner. The living room's wall of windows and bright views north overlook the neighborhood townhouses, abundant trees and gardens. The large bedroom offers a private retreat away from the living room and also has a generous closet, wall of windows, built-in bookcase and Friedrich through-the-wall- air conditioner. There are two additional storage closets in the hallway between the bathroom and bedroom. The bathroom has been renovated to include a Toto toilet, modern ceramic vanity and tiles, along with a new soaking tub/shower. In addition, the entire home has lovely refinished hard wood floors. The B line is one of the most desired layouts in the building due to its proportions and peaceful surroundings. 235 East 57th Street is a full service cooperative with a full time doorman, live-in resident's manager, landscaped courtyard, roof deck, laundry room and recently renovated lobby and hallways. Located at the intersection of Midtown East and Sutton Place, many of New York's best attractions fill the nearby blocks. Whole Foods Markets is directly across the street, Home Depot and the Container Store are around the corner. Bloomingdale's is up the block, and Fifth Avenue luxury shopping is just west. Enjoy the glorious East River promenade and waterfront strolls nearby or Central Park only several blocks away. Access to transportation is excellent with N, R, W, Q, E. M, F, 4, 5 and 6 subway trains all nearby as well as the uptown/downtown and crosstown buses on the corners. Generous Board policies permit pets (dogs under 30 pounds), subletting and pieds-a-terre living with approval.

Midtown East | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Midtown West and Midtown East have a lot in common. They’re bustling, iconic, and full of people. But just like siblings, their personalities can be vastly different. Midtown East is a bit more sophisticated and doesn’t quite have the vivacity and unruliness that its westerly counterpart exudes. 

Midtown East is bordered by 42nd to the south, 59th Street to the north, 5th Avenue to the west, and 3rd Avenue to the east. 

The neighborhood is famous for its high-end stores, tourist attractions, posh hotels (budget ones too), and iconic architecture. Midtown East is also one of the largest financial and business hubs in Manhattan. During normal business hours the sidewalks are full of commuters and people moving from point A to point B. In the early evening, when the masses have left for the day, things suddenly get a little quieter and the sidewalks have a lot less foot traffic.  

Although largely a commercial neighborhood, residential areas of Midtown East do exist on the eastern section of the neighborhood. 

Grand Central Station is located in Midtown East and like Midtown West, it’s an extremely commutable neighborhood. The 4, 5, 6, 7 and S trains whisk people in and out of the neighborhood 24 hours a day. Grand Central Station also serves as a hub for New York State and Connecticut commuter rails. These trains can take you anywhere along the Hudson River or up into Connecticut. It’s perfect for day tripping.
