About This Home

Welcome to the John Pawson Residence, an architecturally stunning, triple-mint, renovated 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom minimalist sanctuary nestled in a secluded-yet-central pre-war building at the end of a tranquil cul-de-sac in the exclusive Beekman neighborhood.

Masterfully crafted by British designer John Pawson, Apartment 5F is a stunning, one-of-a-kind trophy residence which seamlessly blends dazzling views overlooking the East River with walls washed with light, to bringing the element of water from the outside into the interiors creating a serene, contemplative sanctuary.

This gracious 6 into 5 room home was completely redesigned and constructed to create a space of rest and contemplation, with signature Pawson elements including custom Italian lighting to accentuate the walls and glass, stunning wall reveals, and seamless poured concrete surfaces throughout.

The heart of the home is a sun-splashed open-plan living room, dining room, and kitchen spanning over 30 feet in length. The massive living room features oversized picture windows framing breathtaking East River views. Steady streams of natural light accentuate the beautiful pine floors and individual poured concrete slabs. Formica drawers underneath create a gallery-like setting with additional storage. The living area features ample space for dining and impressive entertaining, directly adjacent to the stunning chef's kitchen. A signature John Pawson wood-burning fireplace completes this room, offering year-round charm.

The spectacular chef's kitchen was masterfully built with only the finest materials. The gray concrete slab peninsula was poured onsite in order to achieve no seams. Integrated top-of-the-line appliances include a stainless steel Gaggenau 4-burner stove with steamer, vented hood, Miele invisible dishwasher and invisible Sub-Zero refrigerator. Additional high-end kitchen features include a stainless-steel backsplash, custom cabinetry with abundant storage, and fiber optic lighting.

A dramatic frosted glass wall connects the living area to the primary suite, allowing light and river reflections to pass through, blurring the boundary between indoors and out. The stunning king-size primary suite boasts massive proportions and a wall of custom built-in closets. The luxurious en suite spa bathroom features an oversized floating concrete vanity, a skylight, a separate soaking tub, and a sumptuous walk-in shower. The second bedroom has abundant closet space, a concealed built-in desk area, and easy access to a windowed full bathroom with a shower.

John Pawson is a British architect and designer known for his minimalist aesthetic, which emphasizes simplicity, clean lines, and the careful use of light and materials. Born in 1949, he founded his London-based practice in 1981 and has since created a diverse portfolio, ranging from private residences and religious spaces to hotels, museums, and retail interiors. His work, often described as "warm minimalism," is characterized by a deep attention to proportion and atmosphere. Notable projects include the Nov Dvr Monastery in the Czech Republic, London's Design Museum, and interiors for Calvin Klein. Pawson's approach is influenced by Japanese and modernist traditions, and his philosophy extends beyond architecture into product and furniture design.

455 East 51st Street is a full-service pre-war co-op adjoining Peter Detmold Park on the East River. Residents enjoy a private gatehouse, a landscaped courtyard, full-time door attendants, a resident manager, storage units, a gym, and a shared rooftop deck with commanding city and river views.

The building is close to a wide range of dining and shopping, minutes from the United Nations, Grand Central, Rockefeller Center, and MoMA. Accessible subway lines include the 6, E, and M. Pets and pieds-a-terre are permitted. 2% flip tax, paid by buyer.
