Property Description for 105 East 64th Street
IN CONTRACT - While you can easily go to Central Park from this gem of a townhouse located on 64th Street off Park, there are days and evenings when you just want to stay in. That is when you will delight in opening the doors on to your private enchanted garden, just beyond your elegant living room.
This 20ft. residence was built back in 1881 and was occupied by one family from the turn of the century through l968, when it was purchased by the present owner. In 1941, the house was restructured as a two-family dwelling, but it can easily be converted back to a one-family residence. The house stands out in this elegant neighborhood for its wisteria vines which grace the stone facade from street level all the way to the top.
Upon entering, you are greeted by the feeling of open space. The huge windows on every floor create a very special light which permeates throughout. The ground floor living room with its elegant fireplace faces the lush oasis of your very own garden.
The parlor floor, above, features two large rooms with 11'2 ceilings. These rooms can be redesigned as spectacular entertainment space if the house is used as a one-family home, or used as bedrooms with baths if kept in their present state.
At present, the upper triplex is a self-contained, airy, well-lit, 3,600 sq.ft. space featuring a large living room and a dining room (with fireplaces) as well as 6 bedrooms and 3.5 baths. While the triplex is presently occupied, it will be delivered vacant.
This townhouse has limitless possibilities; bring your architect and make this historic home yours.

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.
