A Rare Rosario Candela Classic, Reimagined for Modern Living Designed by legendary architect Rosario Candela, Residence 10B at 447 East 57th Street presents a rare opportunity to own an impeccably renovated home within one of Sutton Place's most intimate and architecturally significant pre-war cooperatives.
Spanning approximately 1,660 square feet, this gracious two-bedroom, two-bathroom residence masterfully balances Candela's timeless floor plan with sophisticated modern updates. A semi-private elevator landing introduces a home defined by elegant proportions, soaring 9-foot ceilings, herringbone hardwood floors, and oversized divided-light windows that bathe each room in natural light.
Designed for both effortless entertaining and comfortable everyday living, the expansive living and dining room offers exceptional scale, custom built-ins, a beautifully integrated dry bar, and wine storage. Every detail has been thoughtfully curated to preserve the home's pre-war character while enhancing its contemporary functionality.
The windowed eat-in kitchen is appointed with an exceptional suite of appliances, including Sub-Zero, Viking, Bosch, Miele, and AGA, complemented by Caesarstone countertops and custom cabinetry. Whether preparing an intimate dinner or hosting family and friends, the space delivers both beauty and performance.
The private primary suite serves as a tranquil retreat, featuring generous closets and a beautifully renovated en-suite bath. A spacious second bedroom is complemented by a full bathroom designed entirely with Waterworks fixtures and finishes, bringing an additional layer of considered luxury to the home.
Completed in 1928, 447 East 57th Street remains one of Rosario Candela's most exclusive residential addresses, offering just 23 residences, full-time doorman service, and the understated elegance that has made his buildings among the most coveted homes in Manhattan.
Candela's work continues to define New York's most prestigious residential architecture, with his residences recognized for their extraordinary layouts, enduring craftsmanship, and timeless appeal. Perfectly positioned in Sutton Place, moments from the East River Promenade, neighborhood parks, acclaimed dining, and Midtown, Residence 10B offers a rare combination of architectural provenance, modern luxury, and exceptional privacy-an opportunity to own a true piece of New York history.
