Property Description for 400 East 52nd Street, 4-B

Refined Design Meets Tranquil Beekman Place Living

Welcome to this thoughtfully renovated Southgate alcove studio, a refined Midtown East residence offering classic architectural charm paired with modern luxury finishes-all set on a quiet, dead-end street in the coveted Beekman Place enclave.

The home opens into a spacious, open-concept living area defined by beautiful oak floors, and serene northeast-facing light. The generously proportioned alcove easily accommodates a king-sized bed and currently features a custom Murphy bed, allowing for effortless flexibility between living and sleeping spaces.

The kitchen was fully remodeled in 2020 and showcases premium finishes and appliances, including a Wolf cooktop, Bosch refrigerator, Bosch dishwasher, and a Bosch combination microwave/convection oven-an elegant and highly functional space for both everyday use and entertaining.

Two large closets provide excellent storage, further enhanced by a private storage cage included with the apartment (3' x 3' x 5', with no ongoing maintenance fee). Comfort and efficiency are thoughtfully considered throughout.

The Southgate is a distinguished, Emery Roth-designed cooperative known for its timeless elegance and full-service lifestyle. Building amenities include 24-hour doorman coverage, a lush private garden for residents, bike storage, laundry facilities, and on-site storage. Sublets, pied-à-terres, and pets are permitted.

Perfectly positioned in the heart of Midtown East while offering rare privacy and quiet, this home presents a sophisticated opportunity to enjoy classic New York living with modern comforts.

Beekman Place | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Beekman Place is less of a neighborhood than it is a quiet two-block enclave just north of the United Nations on the far eastern edge of Turtle Bay. There is only one street that runs through the neighborhood, also called Beekman Place, that wraps itself around 49th Street and 51st Street.  

This bucolic little stretch of the east side has always been a cherished spot for those fortunate enough to have found refuge here. The noise and the street traffic from the city surrounds is virtually non-existent as there are no through streets in this neighborhood.  

The neighborhood composition largely consists of a few clusters of townhouses and prewar co-ops. The exception to the rule is the charming art-deco-styled Beekman Place Hotel at the corner of First Avenue and 49th Street and the two post-war towers, 860 and 870 UN Plaza that front the grounds of the United Nations.
