Property Description for 29 East 64th Street, 2-C
This romantic 6 room home offers elegance, prewar charm and European ambience in a premier White Glove building, perfectly positioned at the corner of 64th Street and Madison Avenue. The apartment has been renovated to the highest standard whilst maintaining the integrity of its 1922 traditional detail. High ceilings and mahogany parquet floors are enlivened by perfectly restored cove, picture and baseboard moldings. A semi-private landing opens upon a gracious Classic 6 layout. The entry gallery welcomes one to a spacious living room with a hallway leading either to the private quarters or, in the other direction, towards the formal dining room, a large square kitchen and generous staff quarters.
The living room and the master bedroom each enjoy delightful tree-filled views, South, onto 64th Street. Both the master bedroom and second bedroom have stylish and serene baths ensuite. The kitchen is well-designed and generously sized with abundant cabinetry. Several sets of service and plentiful cooking utensils are easily housed. Marble countertops, solid white cabinetry, polished nickel accents and stainless steel appliances, including a Sub-Zero refrigerator and Viking 30" stove make this a true cook's kitchen. The maid's room is well-sized, with its own full bath and a washer/dryer which is vented outward. Additionally, an exceptionally large storage room transfers with apartment 2C.
29 East 64th Street is a handsome 12-story building, designed by George F. Pelham with only 41 units. The faade is accentuated by a two-story rusticated limestone base, sidewalk landscaping and a canopied entrance flanked by wall lanterns. Building services include doormen and hall men, live-in super and exceptionally large private storage rooms for residents. The building was incorporated in 1955 and is superbly managed with excellent financials and low maintenances. Central air conditioning is allowed and pets are welcome.
Amidst some of the most beautiful tree-lined townhouse streets, this is the prime Upper East Side, convenient to restaurants, shopping, museums and mass transportation. It is also next door to the celebrated Hotel Plaza Athenee and only one block from Central Park and the entrance to the beloved Central Park Zoo.

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.
