Listing Notes

Welcome to 5R at Sutton Gardens, a beautifully renovated one bedroom, one bathroom home in a classic mid-century co-op located in the heart of Sutton Place. The apartment features a graciously sized primary bedroom with generous closet space and two exposures. The living and dining areas are spacious and filled with natural light, and the updated windowed kitchen offers modern finishes and functionality. 420 East 55th Street is a well-established, full-service co-op with a landscaped garden courtyard. Residents enjoy 24-hour doorman service, on-site storage, two laundry rooms, and an in-building parking garage. Impeccably maintained, Sutton Gardens offers a quiet residential setting just moments from neighborhood favorites, the East River Esplanade, and convenient transportation options.
