Property Description for 425 East 58th Street, 16-AB

Fabulous opportunity to have a sprawling (approximately 4200 sq. ft.) home in a top luxury cooperative. With a little TLC, the fine details, including herringbone oak floors and gorgeous crown molding will come alive again. A grand gallery with a marble floor opens to a double width living room, with a balcony, and a formal dining room. The large windowed kitchen has a WASHER AND DRYER, and there is a staff room and full bath. The master suite faces south and west and includes a dressing room, massive closet space and his and hers baths. In a separate wing, there are two additional bedrooms with ensuite baths, a home office and a huge library/media room with spectacular East River views. There is additional storage, an area set up for exercise and yoga and an exquisite powder room. This home has a private landing, 9 ft. ceilings and a flexible floor plan that could easily accommodate additional bedrooms.

When The Sovereign was built in 1974, Paul Goldberger of The New York Times noted, "The Sovereign is in the super luxury category." The Emery Roth designed building has a lobby that "extends under the entire building, and there are four semiprivate halls per floor - a welcome (and expensive) alternative to the long, double loaded corridor. Such an arrangement has probably not been used in any New York building since the nineteen-thirties."

Then as now, the residents are treated to impeccable world class service is provided by the staff that includes sentry, doorman, concierge, on-site management, valet parking in the 24 hr. garage equipped with Tesla charges. This mid-century building has an elegant lobby distinguished by Carlo Scarpa designed Venini chandeliers and rosewood paneling.

There is a lobby level state of the art windowed gym, manicured gardens surround the building, and up to two dogs are permitted. Pied a Terre, Trusts and LLC purchase are permitted with Board Approval. Please call for an appointment and do not miss this opportunity!

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.
