Property Description for 36 Sutton Place South, 4-A

Welcome to a generously proportioned, fully renovated 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom home in the heart of historic Sutton Place. Enter through a gracious entry foyer that opens on to an elegantly designed great room. Beautifully refinished hardwood floors are present throughout. A large windowed dining area looks out over the sunken living room, which features sun-splashed Northern and Eastern exposures facing tree-lined Sutton Place South. There is an abundance of space for both living and entertaining. The triple-mint kitchen is situated off the dining room and features two windowed exposures along with stainless steel appliances and wall-to-wall cabinet space. Three large closets in the entryway put to rest all concerns of storage, with a coat closet, separate storage closet and an additional utility closet upon entry. There are 7 closets in total throughout the home. Bedrooms are situated off a separate wing of the unit, conveniently separated by the expansive entry hall. The king-sized primary bedroom features curved windows looking out on to a tree-lined courtyard. A large closet and renovated ensuite bathroom round out this bedroom. The second bedroom is also large enough for a king bed and is currently being used as a den / office. This bedroom features a personal closet and French doors that open on to the entry hall, so it easily doubles as both an extension of the living space or a separate bedroom. An additional renovated bathroom is available right outside. 36 Sutton Place South is a white-glove cooperative with an impeccably renovated lobby, furnished roof terrace with stunning river views, planted meditation garden and a brand new gym. There is a 24-hour doorman, bike room, live-in resident manager, and laundry room. Washer/dryers are permitted with board approval. Additional building storage is available for rent subject to availability. Pied-a-terres and parents purchasing are permitted on a case-by-case basis. 60% financing is permitted. There is also a 2% transfer tax paid by buyer. Unfortunately, dogs are not allowed. One block from the East River, where bike paths are easily accessed, 36 Sutton Place South is also conveniently located a stone's throw from the Crosstown bus and a Citibike station. The E and M trains can be found at Lexington Avenue and 53rd Street and the 4, 5 and 6 trains are available at 59th Street and Lexington.

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.
