You Just Know.


You know when you enter a home and you immediately get that good feeling? You enter the foyer, and you take in the open plan living/dining rooms anchored by the working fireplace; you glide through the windowed, eat-in kitchen; you enjoy the lower level guest suite, and you begin to discover and explore the private terrace with city/river views that envelops all of it — and something special happens. Something comes over you, you decompress, and you just feel it. Then, you go upstairs and you get to know the top floor bedrooms, with their respective marble baths, and you discover yet another private city and river-view terrace off of the luxe primary suite. Now, you don't just feel it -- you know it.


The scale and layout feel right -- like a house. The easy flow works; the windows are big; the rooms are fresh, lively, and bright; the ceilings are high; the classic fireplace actually works; there is an integrated sound system, the generous closets are outfitted; the eat-in kitchen is well-appointed, sun-filled, and gorgeous; there is a washer/dryer, central ac, and a bonus guest suite (3rd bedroom); the marble bathrooms are perfect and tasteful; the bedrooms are perfectly scaled, sun-filled, and serene; the exposures are ideal; and the dual terraces are simply perfection. It all works. You know that gut feeling when you just know?


The current owners of this prized home have stylishly renovated his heroic home from top to bottom and back to the slab -- nothing was overlooked -- and everything, from the new copper plumbing to the upgraded electrical system, and from the fantastic custom floors to the beautiful plasterwork, was redone, reimagined, and redefined. Now, you get to enjoy the fruits of their smart and elegant choices.


Move-in ready, fresh, and fantastic, this resplendent residence has classic Sutton service running through its handsome veins, yet this glamourous, feel-good, trophy home is fully relevant and perfectly poised for a beautiful, big 21st Century life. Its comfortable rooms allow you to stretch out and relax in style, its fantastic flow works well for easy-living and comfortable entertaining, there are big walls for art, custom built-ins, a marble topped wine bar (w/wine fridge), big windows bringing you lovely light at every turn, a designer kitchen with top-shelf appliances (Sub-Zero fridge, Wolf oven and Miele dishwasher), ample marble counters and custom cabinets, enviable storage, and comfy, beautiful rooms that offer a lovely sense of place and peace -- all surrounded by big terraces.


Perfectly positioned on its intimate Penthouse level, in its coveted, well-served and well-run, pet-friendly Sutton Place building (famous for its dedicated, seasoned staff, resident manager, amazing Mid-Century lobby, en suite garage, gym, and prime location by the new Riverfront Promenade), this easy-to-love and easy-to-live home is the renovated, winsome Penthouse that stands out for all the best reasons.


Here, you get to enjoy a primo perch in a convenient, pristine neighborhood with an authentic, heart-warming, storied soul. Shops are boutique and vendors know your name and what you like. Sutton Park is up the street, and the newly opened East River Promenade expansion offers you magical moments along the water right in front of your building. Every area shopping (Whole Foods), dining, cultural, and fitness destination is a stone's throw from you — transportation is easy — and you are supremely situated by the Upper Eastside, downtown, and midtown.
