Property Description
The Apartment:
Tucked within one of Manhattan's most celebrated prewar enclaves, this beautifully proportioned studio at Southgate offers the rare combination of architectural character, quiet elegance, and timeless design.
Thoughtfully laid out, the residence features gracious proportions rarely found in today's studios, allowing for distinct living, dining, and sleeping areas.
Large windows invite beautiful natural light. Classic prewar details including hardwood floors, generous ceiling heights, and substantial closet space (including a custom designed walk in), create a warm, inviting home that feels both sophisticated and effortlessly livable.
Whether you're searching for a full-time residence or an elegant pied-à-terre, Apartment 4D offers a peaceful retreat just moments from Midtown's cultural, dining, and business centers.
HISTORY:
A Landmark in New York Residential Design
Completed in 1930 as part of the renowned Southgate complex, 424 East 52nd Street was designed by legendary architect Emery Roth for the prestigious developer Bing & Bing whose buildings remain among Manhattan's most admired prewar residences.
Southgate is considered one of Roth's architectural masterpiece; a rare five-building composition that transformed an entire block into a cohesive residential enclave with richly detailed Art Deco ornamentation, landscaped gardens, and an atmosphere unlike anywhere else in Manhattan.
The Building:
Residents enjoy a full-time doorman, live-in resident manager, landscaped gardens, bicycle storage, laundry facilities, and easy access to the East River Esplanade and Peter Detmold Park through Southgate's private garden. Dogs and pieds-à-terre are permitted, and electricity is included in the maintenance.
The Neighborhood & Notable Residents:
The neighborhood feels wonderfully removed from the pace of Midtown while remaining only minutes away. The quiet cul-de-sac, mature trees, and beautifully maintained private gardens create an almost European ambiance that is exceptionally rare in New York City. Beekman / Sutton Place has long attracted diplomats, artists, writers, financiers, and public figures seeking privacy without sacrificing proximity to the heart of Manhattan. The neighborhood's quiet streets overlooking the East River have made it one of the city's best-kept secrets for nearly a century. Notable residents have included, Henry Kissinger, Katherine Hepburn, Humphrey Bogard, John lennon and many more.
Living here means becoming part of a neighborhood where classic New York architecture, tree-lined streets, waterfront parks, and understated elegance continue to define an increasingly rare Manhattan lifestyle.
Apartment 4D offers more than a home, it offers the opportunity to own a piece of New York architectural history within one of the city's most distinguished prewar cooperatives.
