Stretch out in this spacious 3 bedroom, 3 bath Prewar Sutton Place Beauty. This rarely available, over-scaled home is an intelligent combination of three apartments -- a graciously flowing residence with high beamed ceilings, lovely oak floors, and an ideal mix of original detail and modern elegance -- all in a prime address along 57th Street - in one of Manhattan's most respected cooperatives. From this re-imagined and renovated home's large sunny living room with open views to its big bonus den or 3rd Bedroom (see alternate floor plan)  to its practical and pretty, renovated, open, windowed, eat-in Chefs kitchen with Viking and SubZero appliances (including a wine cooler) plus a generous island making this the perfect apartment for gracious entertaining for both large parties and intimate gatherings. Just off of the entry and next to the kitchen, there is a large laundry room and a full bathroom.  A graceful hallway sweetly divides the entertaining rooms from the bedroom wing. There are two well scaled master bedrooms both with renovated en-suite baths and an additional bedroom currently configured as a home office and media room. There is an abundance of closet space throughout this apartment as well as through-the-wall air conditioning. 227 East 57th Street is graced by a stellar location - perfectly prime to all Midtown East's cultural, dining, and shopping destinations (Whole Foods right across the street) - and well attended by a stupendous 24-hour staff and resident manager. This is the fresh home for which you've been searching. Offering storage, bike, laundry, and a newly decorated lobby preserving the original art deco character of the building.  It is pet friendly and permits unlimited subletting after one year.
