Property Description for 333 East 57th Street, 4-A

Unit 4A at 333 East 57th Street is a grand nine-room, four-bedroom, four-bathroom prewar cooperative apartment on a beautiful tree-lined residential block in Sutton Place. Designed in 1928, it carries the proportions and quiet confidence of a bygone era, dual exposures pulling light through the home from morning to afternoon, tall ceilings and scale that feel impossible to find today. This is the kind of home people spend years searching for.

Beyond its scale and light, Unit 4A is built for real life. The home spans approximately 3,000 square feet and lives as a full-floor residence, with a wood-burning fireplace anchoring the living room, central air conditioning across three independent zones, and a dedicated laundry room with full-size washer and dryer. Four full bathrooms serve the residence in all. Storage here is exceptional, with 17 closets throughout the home, 6 of them walk-in, plus extra-large private storage in the building basement.

A proper foyer welcomes you on arrival, generous enough to receive guests in earnest and giving the home a natural separation between the entertaining wing and the private bedroom quarters. Beyond it, the south-facing living room runs the full width of the home, flooded with light along its entire southern wall and anchored by a wood-burning fireplace, the kind of grand entertaining room that defines prewar living in Midtown East. Adjacent sits a south-facing bedroom, that works equally well as a library, den, home office, or media room, ready to adapt to however you live.

The formal dining room sits at the heart of the home, a true entertaining room scaled for the kind of dinners this address was built for, comfortably seating a long table for a holiday gathering yet just as easy for a quiet weeknight at home. It connects through a butler's pantry to a large eat-in kitchen. The corner kitchen has a generous footprint and windows on two exposures, filling the room with light through the day. At its center is a professional Wolf range, a serious cook's stove paired with a custom stainless-steel commercial-style canopy hood that vents directly to the outside, the rare prewar kitchen ready for someone who actually cooks.

Off the kitchen, a dedicated laundry room holds a full-size washer and dryer, and beyond it a maid's room, currently configured as a home office, with its own full bathroom, delivers the kind of flexible back-of-house space that is so hard to find in modern layouts.

The bedroom wing is composed for quiet and light. The primary suite faces the rear of the building and features a windowed, renovated en-suite bathroom finished to a refined standard. The south-facing second bedroom enjoys morning-to-afternoon sun and its own renovated en-suite bathroom. The third and fourth bedrooms share a windowed Jack and Jill bathroom, a thoughtful configuration for a family, for guests, or for a paired office and
guest room.

333 East 57th Street is a meticulously maintained, full-service prewar cooperative with a 24-hour doorman, a live-in resident superintendent, and porters on staff daily. Residents enjoy an elegant lobby, a landscaped private Roman garden, and a large rooftop terrace, all within a pet-friendly building that welcomes pieds-à-terre use.

Set on a quiet, tree-lined block one block from the new East River waterfront walk, the building is moments from Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, Morton Williams, and Equinox, with easy access to crosstown and East Side transit and several nearby parking garages. Unit 4A at 333 East 57th Street is a rare chance to own a large-scale prewar home with classic bones, dual exposures, and a flexible four-bedroom layout in one of Sutton Place's most enduring cooperative addresses.

Unit 4A is more than an apartment. It is a rare prewar home of grand proportion and quiet grace, the kind that comes to market once in a generation. Schedule your showing today!

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.
