With fall just around the corner, the prospect of endless summer sounds tantalizing indeed. This midtown apartment has plenty to like: cherrywood floors, a Miele- and Viking-equipped kitchen, marble baths, and lots of light. But it won’t get you sand between your toes. (For that, you’d have to find an East End share, or one on the Jersey Shore if you’re on a budget.) For just about the same price, you could move to a three-bedroom, three-bath condo on Grace Bay Beach in the British colony of Turks and Caicos, where temperatures range in the seventies and eighties year-round, and you’ll have a little cash left over for rum runs.
