RIVERVIEW RARITY: HIGH-FLOOR HEAD-TURNER IN PRIZED, FULL SERVICE, PRE-WAR BUILDING ON RIVERSIDE PARK


COVETED CORNER 2BR w/OVERSIZED LIVING ROOM, LARGE BEDROOMS, EAT-IN KITCHEN, & BIG SIGNATURE FOYER/GALLERY


UPGRADED, PET FRIENDLY, PRE-WAR CLASSIC w/SUNKEN LIVING/DINING, DECORATIVE FIREPLACE & WASHER/DRYER


With a divine position wrapping the northwest corner of its treasured, historical building, this heroic home brings you big space, classic style and world-class views. Offering dramatic, open vistas of the Hudson River and Riverside Park directly from its king-sized primary bedroom suite -- and side-long from every other room -- this bright beauty is a residential stand-out.


Above you are high, beamed ceilings -- underfoot are herringbone Oak floors -- and everywhere there is light and beauty. Off of the over-scaled foyer/gallery, the sunken living/dining room is an impressive 25-feet deep, anchored by a beautiful decorative fireplace and two large windows with side-peeks of the river and park. With a comfortably-scaled sitting area and room enough for ten-person dining, this is the perfect space for stretch-out living and elegant entertaining. This great room is served by an upgraded, windowed, eat-in kitchen with dining bar and pass-through opening. With solid-surface counters with integrated sink, ample cabinetry, and a suite of top-shelf appliances, the kitchen offers an ideal scale and a handsome practicality.


A graceful residential hall graciously guides you to the expansive, corner primary suite with its signature, jaw-dropping river, park and big sky views to the West, and with views north to the George Washington Bridge. Here, sunsets are magical, the space is large, the closets are generous, and its windowed bathroom (with original cast iron soaking tub) is en suite. The supremely scaled second bedroom has a new entrance -- smartly designed French doors now open to the big foyer -- bringing more light and river views to the gallery and living room. Easily restored if need be (see original plan), this guest suite is a versatile den/office with its own windowed guest bath with classic step-in shower and a washer/dryer.


Beautifully set where Riverside Park meets 104th Street, this feel-good home is perfectly perched in the coveted Bloomingdale district of the Upper Westside. Every area cultural, dining, and shopping destination is nearby, and transportation options are plentiful -- not to mention a prized front row seat to gorgeous Riverside Park. Enjoying all the services of its landmarked Deco, doorman building (with laundry/bike/storage rooms and resident Superintendent), this easy-to-love home will inspire your soul and win your heart.
