IMMEDIATE OCCUPANCY

The Maisonette at Minuet is an exceptionally rare Manhattan condominium offering, combining over 3,000 square feet of interior space with an extraordinary 1,400+ square foot private garden.

Spanning two full levels, this South facing 3 bedroom, 2 full bath and 2 half bath residence offers the comfort and separation of a traditional townhouse while benefiting from the services and conveniences of boutique condominium living. Quietly positioned away from the street, the home is remarkably peaceful and filled with beautiful southern light throughout the day.

The upper level serves as the primary living floor and features all three bedrooms, two full bathrooms, a powder room, and direct access to the expansive private garden, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor lifestyle rarely achievable in Manhattan. The oversized outdoor space offers endless possibilities for entertaining, dining, recreation, gardening, or simply enjoying private open space on a scale typically reserved for townhouse living.

The thoughtfully designed U-shaped kitchen features custom BOTTEGA cabinetry, polished Taj Mahal quartzite countertops and backsplash, fully integrated Miele appliances, Hansgrohe chrome fixtures, and a large breakfast bar island ideal for casual dining and entertaining.

The primary suite features a walk-in closet and a thoughtfully appointed bathroom complete with radiant heated floors, honed North Pearl marble, custom BOTTEGA vanities, medicine cabinets with integrated lighting, Duravit wall-mounted toilets, and Hansgrohe fixtures.

The lower level is currently configured as a dramatic open recreation and living space, allowing tremendous flexibility for a media room, home office, playroom, guest suite, studio, or additional entertaining area. A powder room and oversized laundry room with full-size Miele washer and dryer complete this level.

Additional residence features include 9-foot+ ceilings, oversized high-performance windows with exceptional sound attenuation, 8-inch wide plank Croatian Sandstone white oak flooring, multi-zone HVAC, and pre-wiring for smart home automation.

Minuet is an intimate collection of just fifteen residences located on a quiet tree-lined block at the crossroads of Sutton Place and Turtle Bay. Residents enjoy a curated suite of amenities including a part-time doorman with integrated virtual doorman service, fitness center with yoga and movement studio, landscaped rooftop with outdoor kitchen and dining areas, bicycle storage, and private storage available for purchase.

Perfectly positioned in Midtown East, the building offers convenient access to many of Manhattan's major office corridors for an easy commute, while also being moments from Central Park, the East River Esplanade, acclaimed restaurants, neighborhood cafés, and grocers.

Turtle Bay | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Turtle Bay is best known for hosting the world’s dignitaries at United Nations once a year as the world institution sits on the eastern edge of the neighborhood along the East River.

But this midtown location offers a lot more, a bustling neighborhood teeming with high-rise apartment buildings and an easy walk to the Midtown business district.

Over the past two decades, developers have assembled almost every corner development site along Second Avenue and have built straight up. Not much left to assemble.

Some of the more glamorous, and of course most expensive, addresses are in close proximity to the United Nations. Trump World Tower, which caused a big stir with area residents, in particular, Walter Cronkite, when it was built sits just north of the United Nations Grounds. 

In contrast to the proliferation of the residential highrise, Turtle Bay does have some lovely tree-lined streets between the avenues. In particular, Turtle Bay Gardens, which fronts both 48th Street and 49th Street between Third and Second Avenue has always been a haven for the rich and famous.
