Property Description for 430 East 56th Street, 7-B

This spacious home is in move-in condition, and uniquely offers south, west and north exposures with eighteen upgraded windows ensuring year round sunshine with corner windows in each room. The living room has protected open views, including treetops, and is spacious enough to accommodate two seating areas, perfect for relaxation, TV viewing and entertaining. The corner windowed dining room comfortably seats six, a table can expand toward the living area to accommodate up to 12. The impeccably designed large, windowed kitchen has abundant custom cabinetry, space-saving storage and ample countertops - complete with mounted toaster oven and radio. Ungraded internet, coax and sound cabling is installed invisibly.

The split bedrooms have en-suite baths offering complete privacy for guests. The tranquil main bedroom enjoys two exposures, overlooking trees and wonderful city vistas. The second bedroom, spacious and comfortable, is currently configured as an amazing guest room and home office with two desks, one built in with file cabinets. Both renovated bathrooms are masterfully designed with water controls to easily adjust the water temperature before entry. Both have Toto comfort-height dual-flush toilets, extra-deep Robern medicine cabinetry and custom vanities (both with electricity), and are fitted with an in-wall supply cabinet to maximize storage. The main bathroom has a walk-in shower. There are seven spacious closets, most fitted with efficient closet organizers. A welcoming foyer, gleaming bamboo floors throughout and powerful through-the-wall HVAC units with custom enclosures complete this incredible residence.

Sutton Manor, located at 430 and 440 East 56th Street, is a full-service coop in the heart of Sutton Place, where your newspapers are delivered right to your door! This friendly coop is staffed with 24-hour doormen and a supremely attentive live-in super. There are two lovely, private gardens where one can read under the trees or simply take in the crisp, fresh air, and the building has a rooftop deck. Additional basement storage is available (short wait list for bins), and bike storage is free. Meticulously maintained, the laundry room has new washers and dryers. The building has excellent financials with no assessment in 25 years. Pieds- -terre are welcome and pets are, too!

Sutton Place is a peaceful, wholly residential East River enclave right in the heart of Manhattan, walkable to work in Midtown, the United Nations or the medical corridors just blocks north or south. Easy access to the Queensboro Bridge and the FDR Drive makes for quick rides downtown, uptown or out of town. Close by are Whole Foods, Trader Joe's (coming soon), groceries and high-end butcher, fish, cheese and liquor stores, and excellent dining at many neighborhood favorites. Take in the sun in the peacefulness of the riverside Sutton Place Park half a block away, or take a bike ride or stroll along the expanding East River Esplanade, which also has dog parks. Play a game of tennis at the public Sutton East Tennis club at 59th Street, or join the exclusive Town Tennis Club adjacent to the building. This prime location is close to subways and buses, theaters, Bloomingdale's, The Home Depot and Madison and Fifth Avenue shopping, and Central Park is a 15-minute walk 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.
