400 East 56th Street Midtown East Apartment For Sale

Welcome home to unit #9O at Plaza 400.

This oversized 1BR, 1.5BA Junior 4-which is convertible to a 2BR-offers unparalleled value and potential for its next owner. Recently refreshed, the apartment is comfortable as-is or offers the opportunity to undertake a renovation and unlock immediate equity.

Enter the sprawling 900+ square foot residence through a formal entry foyer, flanked by two spacious walk-in closets.

The oversized living room offers endless flexibility, with a wall of bright south-facing windows and more than enough space to accommodate a full dining area, a large living setup with sectional sofa, home office, and more.

The galley kitchen features ample storage, a dishwasher, and a full-sized gas range. While fully functional in its current condition, the space could benefit from cosmetic updates-or be opened to the living room to create a breakfast bar with barstool seating. Please inquire for virtual renderings and a cost estimate for a full kitchen renovation.

The hallway leading to the massive, king-sized bedroom includes a full wall of closets and a recently updated powder room.
The bedroom offers exceptional scale for the price, easily fitting a California king bed, desk, and additional furniture. It also features a corner exposure, two walk-in closets, and a private en-suite bath.

Unit #9O is situated in one of the most desirable buildings in Sutton Place-400 East 56th Street-a full-service cooperative celebrated for its attentive staff and first-rate amenities. Residents benefit from 24-hour door staff and a dedicated concierge, onsite property management, a resident superintendent, and a seasoned support team.
