Overview of The Avon House at 340 East 74th Street

The Avon House is a 12 story, mid block co-op at 340 East 74th Street, built in 1957 and converted in 1990. The beige brick building contains 119 units and offers full service amenities including a 24 hour doorman, live-in resident manager, renovated lobby and elevators, central laundry, bike room, secured storage, and a garage. The standout feature is the landscaped rooftop deck, which includes WiFi, a shower, ample seating, and 360 degree views stretching to Central Park.

Apartments typically feature hardwood or parquet floors, high ceilings ranging from 8'5" to 9', and generous proportions. Many units have been renovated with modern kitchens equipped with stainless steel appliances and granite countertops, updated bathrooms, and walk in closets. Bedrooms are notably spacious, with several listings mentioning king sized bedrooms that comfortably accommodate desks, dressers, and additional furniture. A few units feature open floor plans with 9 foot ceilings and flexible layouts that can be converted to create second bedrooms or home offices. Some apartments include private terraces.
