Residence 2C at 313 East 56th Street is set on a quiet, tree-lined block. Only one flight up, this two-bedroom, two-bathroom home strikes a balance between prewar charm and everyday livability. Exposed brick wraps the walls throughout, framed by oversized windows and warm hardwood floors that bring in natural light all day long.

The primary bedroom is a true retreat, anchored by a wood-burning fireplace. The second bedroom is equally generous with an en-suite bath with soaking tub. The second bathrooms feature a glass-enclosed shower and in-unit washer/dryer.

The kitchen is finished with a dusty rose backsplash and countertops, stainless steel GE appliances, and a herringbone brick floor that nods to the building's prewar roots. A breakfast bar offers casual seating just steps from the sunlit living and dining space, ideal for morning coffee or evening entertaining.

313 East 56th Street is a charming, self-managed prewar cooperative with fewer than 15 units, offering the intimacy and low maintenance that comes with a small, well-run building with a part-time super. There is dedicated storage unit.Just moments from Sutton Place's best shopping and dining, with quick access to the E, F, M, 4, 5, 6, N, Q, R, and W trains. Pets are not permitted.
