Property Description for 340 East 64th Street, 2-G
WIDE & WONDERFUL: MAGNIFICENT MIDCENTURY CORNER CONDO
TREETOP VIEWS - COVETED SPRAWLING LAYOUT
POOL ON ROOF - GYM - PLAYROOM - GARAGE - NEW LOBBY
In a midcentury building, the best lines tend to be in the corners. The corner homes get the best exposures, the best cross-breezes, and the best layouts. Homes in the corner embrace you -- they literally hug you as you enter their big foyers -- wrapping you in their wonderful wideness and surprising you at every turn.
This sunshiny sprawler is set in the treetops -- every oversized window offers a leafy green view, and every room gives you impressive scale and room to breathe -- room to stretch out -- room to expand. The foyer/gallery is grand -- doubles as a music space, a gallery, a bonus library, a playroom. Flowing off of this is the large, dramatic, East and North facing, corner living and dining rooms. With a wide-open plan and an easy proximity to the windowed kitchen (with new appliances), this condo home is built for easy, refined living, and comfortable entertaining.
The bedroom wing is quite separate from the rest of this well-planned, mindful residence. There are three sizable bedrooms, all with en suite bathrooms, all with immense closets, and all with a thoughtful hall and big closets at their entry. Privacy - quiet - treetops: The bedrooms are sweet retreats indeed.
With a flexible floor plan (please see alternate plan with a potential 4th bedroom option!), with tons of storage space, and with an easy-to-live, easy-to-love, common sense layout, this feel-good residence stands out for all the best reasons.
The pool on the roof is being freshly re-invented for the Summer, and the building's resident sky lounge (with kitchen) was recently renovated. The fitness room is big and well appointed for gym enthusiasts, the playroom is large and well stocked, and the attentive staff includes a resident superintendent and kind doormen and porters. There is a porte cochere driveway, a building garage, and storage and bike rooms. Nearby is easy transportation, and easy proximity to most every area dining, shopping, and cultural destination.
This is the marvelous Midcentury home that offers you space, light, and a layout that comes with bragging rights. The next chapter of this condo is ready for you to write -- your wide and wonderful world begins right here.
(In addition to the monthly Common Charges there are 2 Assessments: $480.37/month, which is ongoing, for building facade work, and a Capital Fund Assessment of $1,042.09/month ending in September 2020.)

Upper East Side | Manhattan
Quick Profile
Exuding a cosmopolitan, refined air that is reminiscent of Paris or other European cities, the Upper East Side (the UES, to local cognoscenti) has a reputation as being a bastion of wealth and privilege. Even though it was built by American “royalty” families like the Vanderbilts, Roosevelts, Kennedys, Carnegies and Rockefellers, whose elaborate mansions once anchored Fifth Avenue, there are affordable housing options throughout the neighborhood. The further east you move, away from Central Park and the more commercial avenues, the more likely you are to find quiet, tree-lined streets with historic townhouses and brownstones. Keep your eye out for reasonably priced apartments in pre-war low-rise and even a few high-rise buildings.
With abundant, beautifully landscaped green spaces, including the oasis of Central Park acting like a backyard, the area is quiet and lushly green. You can relax and unwind in John Jay Park, Carl Schurz Park or take a stroll along the East River Promenade. The whole neighborhood seems isolated from the workaday chaos of the city at large. Add to that the history of the neighborhood and the abundance of cultural institutions, and you have a uniquely welcoming neighborhood.
Known for its abundance of high-end retail shopping, especially on Madison Avenue, the Upper East Side is host to the Barneys New York flagship department store. Here you can find upscale goods, fashion and home decor items. You will also find the edgy runway-inspired Alexander McQueen collections. If you are dying to treat your feet to red-soled opulence, be sure to visit the Christian Louboutin boutique. These are only a small sampling of this high-end shopper’s paradise that features everything from designer boutiques that offer the ultimate in haute couture to resale shops where you can find last season’s best on sale at hefty discounts .
There are many unique dining experiences, from fine dining to the casual bite-on-the-go, awaiting you in the UES. Sushi is going through a renaissance in the city, and the best omakase-style sushi can be found at Sasabune on E 73rd Street. Omakase sushi means that you leave the choice of ingredients, preparation method and presentation to the chef. Elegant French cuisine can be experienced at JoJo, E 64th Street, housed in gorgeous townhouse. Just for fun, visit the Lexington Candy Shop on Lexington Avenue, to get a taste of an old-fashioned soda fountain.
