The East River and Midtown views from this two-bedroom co-op at 30 Sutton Place are stunning enough. But a glass-wrapped solarium and two landscaped terraces take life at the top to a whole new level with all-season outdoor living. Asking $4,950,000, this pretty east side penthouse offers the elegance of pre-war architecture within, enhanced by lively interiors and endless sunshine.
Starting with a private elevator landing, a gracious foyer leads to an expansive living room. Framed by 10-foot ceilings and East River and city skyline views, this irresistible entertaining space is anchored by a wood-burning fireplace.
Just off the living room is an intimate dining area. From here, step into the newly rebuilt glass-clad solarium that allows for sun worship in any season. This shimmering sunroom offers panoramic views and access to the home’s wrap-around terraces.
A classic kitchen with a French country vibe features custom cabinetry that surrounds ultra-capable appliances and decorative tile. Bespoke details like a bar pantry with a wine fridge add to the home’s guest-ready checklist.
A spacious primary bedroom enjoys the warmth of a wood-burning fireplace and plenty of closet space as well as private access to the terrace. The second bedroom works as an intimate library or guest room. Each has an en-suite bath; a full laundry room ups the convenience quotient.
In a city where private outdoor space is rare, terraces like these are a find indeed. The landscaped outdoor rooms feature mature plantings, lush greenery, seating and dining areas and plenty of room to expand on your gardening skills. This endless enchanted garden is blessed with Manhattan and East River views as a backdrop for dazzling evening entertaining or inspired morning meditation.
This pet-friendly 1928 residence offers full-time doormen, dedicated staff, and a fitness room. In classic Manhattan style, the co-op comes with a staff room and private wine cellar on the lobby level. There is also storage space available in the basement.
