303 E 57TH Street 38AB/27N

Agent's Note

From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Corcoran Group.

The apartment at 303 East 57th Street is defined by high ceilings, oversized windows and striking architectural details. Two units were combined to make this 3,721-square-foot co-op, with four bedrooms, two full baths and three powder rooms.

Windows face all four directions, and the description places city and East River views from every room, including the Chrysler Building, Central Park and Billionaires' Row. South-facing windows get about 8.5 hours of direct sun on the winter solstice, though nearby buildings can block some of it. Natural light comes in from every direction, so the rooms don't depend on one exposure for brightness.

The layout includes an oversized living and dining area, which is the largest space for entertaining. A staff or guest room on the 27th floor transfers with the apartment, adding flexibility beyond the four bedrooms. Two private terraces and a balcony add outdoor space to the home.

Laundry is in the unit, with a washer and dryer, which is a practical convenience every day.

The building is full-service, with 24-hour concierge service, an elevator, an indoor pool, a sauna, a spa, a roof deck, a bike room, garage parking, valet service and laundry in the building.

Lexington Av/59 St station, served by the 4, 5, 6, N, R and W trains, is about 7 minutes on foot. Queensboro Oval is about 5 minutes away, and the East River is about 0.4 miles to the south. Whole Foods Market is about 2 minutes on foot, so groceries are close by.

Because this is a co-op, the purchase goes through the building's board review, so it's worth raising the requirements with your broker or attorney early.
