400 E 56th St Apt 38L
Listing Notes
Rarely does a home check every box, but this one comes close. Set on a quiet, tree-lined cul-de-sac in the heart of Beekman, this beautifully gut-renovated corner unit delivers the kind of space, light, and thoughtful design that Manhattan buyers spend years searching for. The open living and dining area is anchored by a showstopping chef's kitchen outfitted with premium appliances, dual islands, and custom cabinetry, ideal for everything from weeknight dinners to effortless entertaining. Warm hardwood floors, bespoke lighting, and southeastern light create an atmosphere that feels both elevated and genuinely livable. Three well-proportioned bedrooms include a generous primary suite with a walk-in closet and private ensuite. The two additional bedrooms share a renovated bath with a discreet built-in washer/dryer. A flexible bonus room, equally suited as a home office, playroom, or guest space, adds meaningful square footage. Nine closets throughout and basement storage mean you'll never run out of room. Individual HVAC units offer personalized climate control year-round. The private landscaped garden is simply extraordinary, one of the finest in the city, and something you have to experience firsthand. It's a genuine urban sanctuary, steps from your front door. Located in one of the East Side's most coveted pockets, with the new Midtown East Waterfront nearby, this is as much a lifestyle investment as it is a home. 400 East 52nd is a full-service prewar cooperative (1931) within the prestigious Southgate campus. Amenities include full-time doorman, live-in super, porter, and free bike room. Maintenance covers water, heat, and electric. Storage cages available at $5,000. All purchase structures considered. 80% financing, pets, and subletting permitted with Board approval. $563.55 of a special assessment that is due in July 2027.
