Property Description for 400 East 51st Street, 17-B

Ultra Chic and surrounded by views! Perched on the 17th floor, this beautiful 2 BD / 2.5 BA home, encompassing 1504 SF, is loaded with style and showcases amazing views from every window. There are magnificent upgrades throughout the apartment. The windowed eat-in kitchen has been renovated with new light fixtures, a 32" Blanco stainless steel sink and new faucet, a custom wide edged quartz counter top and a stunning mosaic back splash. Stainless steel appliances include a Viking refrigerator, Miele dishwasher and Miele washer/dryer. Sunshine pours through the spacious bay-windowed living/ dining room with sweeping views from East to South to West. The bedrooms are generously proportioned. The master bedroom features an electric fireplace with a heating option as well. Both bedrooms have en-suit master baths, floor-to-ceiling French doors opening onto Juliet balconies and both bedrooms showcase glorious western views of the Manhattan skyline. The beautiful wood floors found throughout the apartment have been sanded and refinished with a high grade satin preventing sun damage. Additional features include an elegant entrance, an additional powder room with a custom wood vanity, a living room window seat wide enough to function as a bed and two sets of individually controlled electronic shades throughout the entire apartment . The Grand Beekman is a masterpiece of old world elegance and modern design. The building was designed by the pre-eminent luxury architect, Costas Kondylis and completed in 2003. Location is ideal - nestled near the peaceful, historic enclave known as Beekman Place, yet just a stroll away from Midtown Manhattan. Easy access to the FDR and several subway lines add to the incredibly convenient location of this building. Grand Beekman amenities include a beautiful landscaped garden room, a resident's lounge, playroom, state of the art fitness center, 24 hour doorman/concierge, a resident manager and a full time staff to attend to your every need. This dream apartment has been very gently used throughout the years, as it has always served as a pied-a-terre. It is in fabulous condition and can be purchased fully furnished.

Beekman Place | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Beekman Place is less of a neighborhood than it is a quiet two-block enclave just north of the United Nations on the far eastern edge of Turtle Bay. There is only one street that runs through the neighborhood, also called Beekman Place, that wraps itself around 49th Street and 51st Street.  

This bucolic little stretch of the east side has always been a cherished spot for those fortunate enough to have found refuge here. The noise and the street traffic from the city surrounds is virtually non-existent as there are no through streets in this neighborhood.  

The neighborhood composition largely consists of a few clusters of townhouses and prewar co-ops. The exception to the rule is the charming art-deco-styled Beekman Place Hotel at the corner of First Avenue and 49th Street and the two post-war towers, 860 and 870 UN Plaza that front the grounds of the United Nations.
