Property Description for 430 East 56th Street, 11-B

Rarely does an opportunity arise to acquire a residence of this caliber-meticulously renovated, brimming with natural light, and offering an unparalleled blend of space, elegance, and value. Presenting a sprawling 1,250sf 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom home with the flexibility to easily convert into a 3 bedroom layout, this residence is a testament to sophisticated design and impeccable craftsmanship.

Step through the gracious foyer into a sun-drenched living room, where southern exposures frame breathtaking views over the Town Tennis Club and beyond. An expansive layout flows seamlessly into a formal dining alcove-perfect for hosting soir es or reimagined as a private home office or third bedroom. Four corner exposures facing south, west and north throughout the home ensure an ever-present glow of natural light, enhancing the home's airy, open ambiance.

The recently gut-renovated, windowed eat-in kitchen is a culinary masterpiece, adorned with luxurious marble countertops, custom-built cabinetry, and top-tier appliances, including a Wolf gas range, hood, Bosch panel-front dishwasher, Subzero panel front refrigerator and drawer freezer, and Wolf built-in microwave. The kitchen fixtures are polished nickel and the sink has a built in water filter. Every detail has been thoughtfully curated for both beauty and functionality.

The spacious primary bedroom is a sanctuary unto itself, featuring three oversized closets, a custom-built wardrobe, and an en-suite marble-clad bathroom with a glass-enclosed shower and a dedicated dressing area. The second bedroom mirrors this grandeur, offering two generous closets and a serene corner exposure, while the adjacent renovated marble bathroom with a tub and glass door provides a spa-like experience.

Nestled just off First Avenue, Sutton Manor is a full-service boutique cooperative, offering 24/7 attentive doormen and a resident manager, expansive roof deck and tranquil courtyard garden, on-site laundry facilities, and exclusive access to the Town Tennis Club. There are storage cages for rent (wait list) and free bike storage available. Surrounded by Manhattan's finest amenities- the East River Esplanade, Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, Bloomingdale's, and an array of Michelin-worthy dining-this is urban living at its most refined. Pets and pieds- -terre are welcome, with 70% financing permitted. The Proprietary Lease states that the installation and use of any washer or dryer in any apartment is subject to the specific approval of the Board of Directors.

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.
