Description

Watch the world go by in this pre-war perfection at 400 East 59th Street! Very rare "E" line in this architecturally unique building. 400 East 59th Street is known for its soaring ceilings, huge picture windows, wood burning fireplaces, and beautiful herringbone floors, and 12E has that all and more! This handsome apartment has double exposures to the north and south making it feel like a real home. The gracious living room welcomes you in with a stunning oversized picture window that spans the width of the wall letting light in all day long. The rich herringbone floors, soaring ceilings, and wood burning fireplace flanked by well-placed bookcases, finish this elegant and generous living room ideal for hosting dinner parties by the stunning evening view or for quiet nights reading by the fire. Two generously sized bedrooms, each with their own en-suite bathroom on either side of the apartment allows for privacy. With three walk-in closets, and six closets in total throughout, an extremely well laid out windowed kitchen and a designated elegant entry foyer makes this home very practical for everyday living. 400 East 59th Street is a gorgeous Sutton Place pre-war coop building with a full-time doorman, live-in super, laundry room, bike room, and storage. Pets are permitted. Please note your maintenance includes all electric and basic cable.
