419 East 57th St. #13E

A Dash of Pizzazz

The “Million Dollar Red” lacquered entryway immediately packs a punch in this one bedroom, one bathroom prewar cooperative. The multi-purpose foyer functions as a dining area, gallery/library, or home office space. The gracious living room, with its woodburning fireplace flanked by mirrored walls, high beamed ceilings with inset downlights, and oversized windows, provides a comfortable lived-in atmosphere for daily living; as well as an attractive entertaining space. In the streamlined windowed kitchen, the 1950’s steel cabinets have been stripped/brushed to compliment the stainless steel appliances…retro cool. The two closets in the large primary bedroom provide ample storage. For guests, the windowed “deco-feel” bathroom is accessible through the kitchen as well as the bedroom.

419 East 57th Street is an established cooperative situated on the prettiest block of East 57th Street. Built in 1927, this full-service building features a 24-hour doorman, live-in resident manager, storage area, bike room, recently updated central laundry room, gym, and newly refurbished and extended planted roof deck. The building permits pets, washer/dryers, as well as pied-a-terre ownership; and was recently wired for Verizon FIOS. It is convenient to the new trader Joe’s, Whole Foods, public transportation, and the cinematic Sutton Square Park. The 2% flip tax is paid by the buyer.
