Description

*MAGNIFICENTLY RENOVATED HOME IN THE SKY*
*PLAZA 400 ; 400 East 56th Street, Apt 38E*

Kindly note that all showings and open houses are by appointment only. Please contact listing agent above this description to request an appointment. Easy show!

*YOUR HOME*
Take in the panoramic, high-floor skyline views from this magnificently renovated aerie at Plaza 400, one of Sutton Place's most sought after, amenity rich buildings. Currently configured as a large Junior-4 with one and a half baths, no expense was spared in transforming Residence 38E into a gorgeous, designer home. The generously sized dining foyer adjacent to the gleaming, well-equipped chef's kitchen easily accommodates your dinner party guests, and seven closets - two of which are walk-in - afford excellent storage space. Greatly prized among layouts in the building, the 'E' line affords the flexibility of two-bedroom conversion, and some units in the line have expanded the half bath to full with the addition of a standing shower. We have included an alternate floorplan for illustrative purposes. High floor, great views, coveted layout - what more could you ask for?

*YOUR BUILDING*
Designed by the notable mid-century modern architect Philip Birnbaum, constructed in 1968 and converted to cooperative in 1981, Plaza 400 is a 40-story, 581-unit impeccably self-managed luxury property in the Sutton Place neighborhood of Midtown East with spacious homes, strong financials, and a comprehensive suite of amenities and services. The Skytop rooftop pool and terraces offer endless 360° city and East River views. Fully staffed, Skytop offers chaise lounges with umbrellas, tables and chairs for summer enjoyment. The fitness center is equipped with a full range of free-weights, treadmills/elliptical machines, and training equipment. Quality commercial tenants include a cafe, optician, dry cleaner, nail salon, Pilates studio, children's school/daycare and medical offices.

*YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD*
Plaza 400 is conveniently located near fine restaurants, charming small specialty shops, national grocery stores and pharmacies, cafés, pubs, local riverfront parks and playgrounds. Residents have easy, nearby access to the Ed Koch/Queensboro Bridge, Queens Midtown Tunnel, FDR Drive and Roosevelt Island Tram, as well as to the 4, 5, 6, N, R, E, M, F subway lines and multiple bus routes.

    "Pied a terre since 2020 ground floor studio in a mediocre building with a great private backyard garden. Great places to walk, east river, Beekman Place, convenient to everything in midtown. Side streets are mostly quiet and tree lined. Reasonable rents in B properties near luxury buildings. Not cheap but you don’t need to be rich to live here. "
