Property Description for 227 East 57th Street, 2-AB

This lovely home is located in one of the most sought-after neighborhoods, the prestigious Billionaires Row.

2AB is a comfortable and conveniently located residence in Sutton Place with south, west and north exposures. From its graciously split floor plan, sun flooded spacious living room, and 2 bedrooms suited for king size beds (both bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms) this home has it all. The large master bedroom with oversized window facing south gets plenty of natural light and offers 3 large closets. The home's 2nd bedroom comes with oversized window and a true walk in closet.

Upon entering you are welcomed by renovated windowed kitchen with plenty of counter space for major cooking. The home has its own generously sized laundry room.

227 East 57th Street is a 21-story co-op building featuring 24-hour doorman, private storage room and bike room. Situated on 57th street right across the street from Whole Foods supermarket, the building offers easy access to the best of Midtown East including world-renowned restaurants and shopping. This unique prewar building made of red brick has a newly renovated art deco style lobby and new hallway, which continue to keep the original character of the building. Let’s not forget we are Pet Friendly.

Amenities

A magnificent PreWar apartment house in the very center of the City, 227 was built in 1930, and still retains the magnificent lobby marble floors and the original wood-paneled elevator, the wood gleaming with years of love and more than a little polishing.
Converted to a cooperative in 1985, the building offers 24Hour doormen, live-in Superintendent and an international group of owners. Unusual for a coop, after living here for one year you may sublet your apartment forever! Dogs are permitted.
Washer/Dryers, that well-loved amenity loved by all New Yorkers, are permitted in the apartments, and the building has a complete laundry room in the basement as well. Twenty floors high, the building began with 118 units…many have now been combined. Most apartments have windowed kitchens and many have windowed baths. Windows are doubly-insulated thermal-paned windows, the very best you will find in NYC. Studios, 1BRs and 2 Bedrooms are equally mixed. You will not find a friendlier building anywhere! Truly a vertical village.

Midtown East | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Midtown West and Midtown East have a lot in common. They’re bustling, iconic, and full of people. But just like siblings, their personalities can be vastly different. Midtown East is a bit more sophisticated and doesn’t quite have the vivacity and unruliness that its westerly counterpart exudes. 

Midtown East is bordered by 42nd to the south, 59th Street to the north, 5th Avenue to the west, and 3rd Avenue to the east. 

The neighborhood is famous for its high-end stores, tourist attractions, posh hotels (budget ones too), and iconic architecture. Midtown East is also one of the largest financial and business hubs in Manhattan. During normal business hours the sidewalks are full of commuters and people moving from point A to point B. In the early evening, when the masses have left for the day, things suddenly get a little quieter and the sidewalks have a lot less foot traffic.  

Although largely a commercial neighborhood, residential areas of Midtown East do exist on the eastern section of the neighborhood. 

Grand Central Station is located in Midtown East and like Midtown West, it’s an extremely commutable neighborhood. The 4, 5, 6, 7 and S trains whisk people in and out of the neighborhood 24 hours a day. Grand Central Station also serves as a hub for New York State and Connecticut commuter rails. These trains can take you anywhere along the Hudson River or up into Connecticut. It’s perfect for day tripping.
