Property Description for 300 East 55th Street, PH-C

The Milan Condominium has long been recognized as one of Midtown East’s premier full-service residential towers. Notably, a pivotal scene from The Wolf of Wall Street was filmed inside this very residence, adding a distinctive piece of cinematic history to an already exceptional home. Penthouse C presents a rare opportunity to own a 2,700-square-foot corner residence with sweeping, open exposures in every direction. Floor-to-ceiling glass windows and two private terraces capture expansive skyline views stretching from the East River across Midtown’s iconic towers like the Chrysler Building. These outdoor spaces are exceptional settings for both refined entertaining and elevated daily living. The thoughtfully designed layout begins with a gracious entry foyer that opens into an expansive great room framed by dramatic city vistas. Just off the great room is a bespoke wet bar, perfectly positioned for hosting. Eleven-foot ceilings and rich hardwood floors enhance the sense of scale and light throughout. The open chef’s kitchen features custom European cabinetry, a substantial center island, and premium Viking appliances. At the heart of the home, the primary suite is anchored by a fireplace and outfitted with two walk-in closets and a five-fixture windowed bath that feels closer to a private spa than a bathroom. The two secondary bedrooms each have their own en-suite baths. A vented washer-dryer laundry closet, Central HVAC, and custom lighting reflect the attention to detail throughout this incredible home. Residents of The Milan enjoy white-glove service, including a 24-hour doorman and concierge, a landscaped garden, fitness center, on-site garage, and residents lounge. Conveniently located near Whole Foods, MoMA, Bloomingdale’s, Equinox, exceptional dining, and multiple transportation options, this is a distinguished offering in one of Manhattan’s most established residential enclaves. Reflected taxes are for primary residents. Otherwise, they are are $5,825 per month.

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.
