Property Description for 30 Sutton Place, 5-A

Classic 7-room residence.
3 large bedrooms + maid's room.
Large eat-in kitchen
Gracious layout in Rosario Candela building.
Beautiful architectural details throughout.
An abundance of storage.

Located in a magnificent prewar Sutton Place building designed by master architect, Rosario Candela, this splendid apartment is planned on a generous and intelligent scale that continues to make prewar construction so desirable.

Original details include high ceilings (9'4"), beautiful hardwood floors, impressive crown and baseboard moldings, solid Georgian style doors, built in bookcases and a wood burning fireplace.

The floorplan presents a distinct separation between formal entertaining and private quarters. From the semi-private elevator landing, you enter the center entrance gallery. To the left is the south facing living room with wood burning fireplace. Across the gallery is the formal dining room, currently used as a library/sitting room. Beyond the dining room is the butler's pantry with extensive storage leading to the eat-in kitchen with top of the line appliances.

A windowed staff room, outfitted as an office, is situated off the kitchen with guest bath and washer/dryer. The private quarters features three large bedrooms and an updated guest bathroom. The generously proportioned master bedroom suite (measuring 23'10"X13'6") includes a separate dressing room, bathroom and several closets (one is a walk-in). There is thru wall air conditioning throughout and additional private storage.

Built as a cooperative in 1928, 30 Sutton Place has a beautiful lobby, only 42 apartments and a fitness room. Known for its dedicated and conscientious staff the building has a live in super, is pet friendly and located in the illustrious Sutton Place corridor with many fine restaurants and shops a mere block away.

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.
