Description

A true jewel in Sutton Place, Apartment 3A at 444 East 57th Street is a two-bedroom, two-bathroom residence that exudes elegance. Tastefully designed in a sophisticated manner that pays homage to its prewar details, this is a rare condo offering that includes a separate staff room.

As you enter the foyer with a dedicated coat closet, a checkered marble floor provides a runway into the home and overlooks the grand sunken living room that is flanked with columns beneath 10'6"-high beamed ceilings. Exquisitely refined millwork in the form of custom built-ins as well as crown and baseboard molding surround the room, anchored around a central stunning chandelier perfectly situated. The true focal point of this room, however, is the timeless wood burning fireplace with a marble mantel.

The windowed formal dining room is ideally situated between the kitchen and living room, complete with dark, rich herringbone wood floors. A pocket door leads into the windowed kitchen and service entrance. The kitchen includes custom wood cabinetry, Tenedos Spiral mosaic floor and backsplash tiling, and a suite of premium stainless steel appliances including a Sub-Zero refrigerator, Wolf wall oven and cooktop, Broan hood, and Miele dishwasher.

Both bedrooms are tucked away through a separate corridor that includes two closets, one of which houses an in-unit Miele washer and dryer. The north-facing king-sized primary bedroom is bright and airy with luscious carpeting and wallpaper. Its four-fixture ensuite bathroom has two distinct vanities, and there is an exceptionally large walk-in closet. The adjacent, south-facing second bedroom has an ensuite Jack-and-Jill bathroom that is also conveniently accessible from the main gallery for any guests to utilize.

Please note that there is a separate, approximately 115-square-foot staff room unit (MR4) included in the sale of Apartment 3A. MR4 is ideal as a private home office, studio, or additional storage use.

Built in 1929 and located moments from Sutton Park and the riverfront, 444 East 57th Street is a classic prewar full-service condominium in one of Manhattan's most idyllic pockets. Full of history, this intimate building was once home to Marilyn Monroe and Arthur Miller. There is 24-hour doormen and elevator attendant, live-in resident manager, common outdoor space, private and bicycle storage. Pets, pied-a-terre ownership, and subletting are all permitted. Please note that there is a capital assessment of $306.25 per month for 3A, and $21.87 per month for MR4. Enjoy a refined lifestyle while remaining close to public transportation and endless shopping and dining conveniences. Listing courtesy of Brown Harris Stevens Residential Sales LLC ...
