Property Description for 303 East 57th Street, 14-E

Immaculate, pristinely, renovated apartment offering an exceptionally bright, airy 1,150 square-foot Junior 4/Conv 2, with two virtually impossible-to-find, extra-large Calacatta marble bathrooms. Residence 14E blends sophisticated design, craftsmanship, and extraordinary storage. A gracious entrance hallway with generous storage welcomes you into an oversized sunny living room framed by a full wall of windows, showcasing spectacular city skyline views. The adjacent dining area, separated from the kitchen by French doors, has been ingeniously transformed into a versatile live/work space, complete with two fully wired, removable built-in office bays featuring custom desks and storage cabinetry. Two elegant floor-to-ceiling folding doors conceal the entire workspace, effortlessly restoring the room's sleek aesthetic.

The stunning renovated kitchen showcases exquisite granite countertops and flooring, cutting-edge Miele, GE Monogram, and GE French-door appliances, a ducted, fully vented range hood, and wall-to-wall, abundant floor-to-ceiling cabinetry. Two exceptional Calacatta marble bathrooms, with vast cabinet space, add another layer of luxury that surpasses any other apartment available. The spacious bedroom is a private retreat, distinguished by a dressing area and two enormous custom-designed walk-in closets that offer dream-worthy storage, complemented by a third wall-length oversized closet with double sliding doors. Beautifully integrated into the layout, these impressive storage spaces provide organization without compromising the apartment's elegant proportions. The renovation extends throughout the residence, with fully skim-coated walls, refinished flooring, and crown moldings, creating a polished finish of the quality workmanship. The result is a beautiful home that feels elegant and ready to enjoy from day one, a perfect pied-à-terre or primary residence. A welcome bonus is the 11-by-8-foot private terrace, a splendid outdoor sanctuary overlooking a glittering skyline.

The Excelsior is a prestigious, white-glove, full-service coop with a 24-hour doorman and concierge desk, including a palatial marble lobby that is served by a covered, circular driveway for effortless pickups and drop-offs. Residents enjoy an impressive array of amenities, including a state-of-the-art health club with a saltwater pool, rooftop deck, laundry facilities, and an on-site garage with valet service and direct building access. Pied-à-terre ownership and pets are welcome. Ideally located on Billionaires' Row in the heart of Sutton Place and steps away from Whole Foods and Sutton Place Park. Near major transportation, world-class luxury shopping, and some of the city's most desirable restaurants.

All appointments and open houses are by appointment only. Please provide 24 hours' advance notice.

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.
