Property Description for 440 East 56th Street, 2-C
Spacious Junior 1-bedroom home, mint condition throughout, loaded with custom closets in prime Sutton Place coop. Great flow and cozy home-like layout with bay windows, wine bar, and separate sleep space. If you dream of a home that looks new and on-trend, 2C delivers.This home lives like an apartment twice its size.
The large dressing room and adjacent walk-in closet is a luxury usually reserved for very luxurious New York City apartments. The entry gallery features a six feet wide, floor-length hanging closet, perfect for dual wardrobes, coats and more. Both the bathroom and kitchen were newly, and stylishly, renovated. The bathroom features classic tiling and a large walk-in shower. The roomy L-shaped and windowed kitchen has plenty of custom cabinets, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, a dishwasher, and a floor-to-ceiling pantry closet. The queen-sized bedroom is big enough to walk around and make the bed.
The entertaining bar with wine cool and built in cabinetry at the back end of the living area is an elegant architectural feature. At the opposing end of the main living space, curving around the end of the room most likely to serve as a dining area, is a street-facing bay window letting in tons of natural light and expanding the spaciousness out into the visual distance beyond. The rounded and windowed end of the room makes this apartment feel like a very high-end home.
The community roof deck at Sutton Manor will become your weekend and evening oasis for entertaining friends. Or when you only have a few minutes, you can tuck into an Adirondack chair in the beautiful courtyard garden to quietly read a book. Residents benefit from a bike room, storage lockers, a central laundry room, and the attention of the live-in super and helpful doormen. Pied-a-terre and pets are okay. Coop board allows 70% financing or less.
For those who want easy access in and out of Manhattan via the FDR drive, or who just like the quiet neighborhood feel of this elegant and convenient part of the Upper East Side, Sutton is the perfect choice. Walkable to midtown, plenty of restaurants and retail nearby including Whole Foods and other groceries.

Sutton Place | Manhattan
Quick Profile
Sutton Place is usually described with favorable words like charming, cozy, great neighborhood, hidden gem, sanctuary, or even small village inside a big city. Those descriptions aren’t from real estate folks either, they’re from the people that live and work there, so it must be true.
The quiet and upscale neighborhood is more like an enclave. It’s bounded by East 53rd Street to the south, East 59th Street to the North, First Avenue to the west, and the East River to the east. Most residents will tell you that everything you’ll ever need is located in the neighborhood. When it’s time to venture out into the cityscape, Sutton Place is within easy reach to Midtown and cultural attractions like the Museum of Modern Art, Rockefeller Center, Central Park and other iconic sites.
Manhattan has always had notable celebrity residents. But for unknown reasons, Sutton Place has had more than its share of superstars over the years. Some of the more iconic celebs include: Marilyn Monroe and Arthur Miller, Freddie Mercury, Sigourney Weaver, Joan Crawford, Michael Jackson and sister Latoya (Just for one summer).
Sutton Place is named after Effingham B. Sutton, a shipping merchant and entrepreneur. After hitting it big in the California gold rush, Sutton built brownstones along East 57th and East 58th streets with aspirations of making the section more residential. Poverty and crime dashed his dreams. The street gangs that hung out along the dead-ends and cul-de-sacs added to the neighborhood’s decay. Sutton was about to give up on his development endeavors but the Vanderbilt’s and the Morgan’s showed up in the 1920s and transformed the neighborhood. It soon became a wealthy enclave.
