Oversized and impeccably laid out, this expansive three-bedroom, three-bathroom at the Sutton House co-op that can be converted to a four or even five-bedroom! 7HC commands exceptional scale, flexibility, and light-with coveted south and west exposures, a private balcony, and a dedicated laundry room that sets it apart.
A gracious entry foyer, anchored by three generous closets, opens into a sprawling great room framed by seven windows. Bright, airy, and effortlessly versatile, the space flows from a formal dining area on the left (can be converted to another bedroom)-seamlessly connected to a thoughtfully designed open kitchen-to an expansive living room on the right generous enough to accommodate a grand piano with room to spare. Step through to your private balcony, a quiet refuge for morning coffee or evening unwinding.
The renovated open kitchen is finished with custom wood cabinetry, quartz countertops, and a suite of stainless-steel appliances: a four-burner range with built-in griddle and vented hood, a double-door refrigerator, and a paneled dishwasher. A stylish pass-through bar and warm architectural wood detailing lend both character and function.
All three bedrooms face south and are generously proportioned, with the flexibility to configure up to five bedrooms. The primary suite is a true retreat-offering a large walk-in closet, a dedicated dressing area, and an en-suite bath. The second bedroom is well-appointed with excellent storage and an adjacent bathroom, while the third is expansive enough to serve as an additional bedroom, a private office, or a sophisticated den.
A rare and coveted amenity: an oversized laundry room outfitted with a Bosch washer and dryer, a utility sink, and abundant shelving and storage.

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.
