300 E 54Th St

Connaught Tower is a 34-story postwar cooperative completed in 1978 that offers one-bedroom and larger combined residences in a full-service, white-glove setting. The exterior reads as a high-rise Midtown East tower set back from the street with a semi-circular drive and planted courtyard; several apartments include private balconies or terraces and many units feature oversized windows with expansive city and East River views. Interiors commonly showcase functional prewar-inspired details adapted for modern living: crown molding, built-in storage, walk-in closets, windowed kitchens with granite counters and islands, breakfast bars, formal dining areas, and generous foyer space. Building common areas are extensive and distinctive: a renovated Penthouse Club includes a glass-domed indoor swimming pool, sauna, gym, sun deck and a lounge with a catering kitchen; additional outdoor roof decks, landscaped gardens and courtyard spaces extend the amenity footprint. Practical conveniences include 24-hour doorman and concierge service, on-site garage with direct access, private storage, bicycle room, central laundry, live-in superintendent and valet-style driveway access. The coop is pet-friendly (board approval), allows pieds-à-terre and permits in-unit washer/dryer subject to approval. Located in Midtown East/Sutton Place, the property places residents within easy walking distance of multiple subway lines, commuter hubs, grocery stores and concentrated dining and shopping options.
