Property Description

This elegant and spacious home offers a blank canvas in an iconic Upper West Side pre-war building on Riverside Drive, designed in 1926 by Rosario Candela, one of New York's most celebrated residential architects. Nestled on a beautiful and peaceful street next to Riverside Park, this quiet and sprawling classic six-room apartment boasts an enviable layout and side park views.

After entering the foyer, you will be amazed by the 23 foot long gallery -a magnificent space to showcase an art collection and host great parties. The large primary and secondary bedrooms each feature two walk-in closets and ensuite original white-tiled bathrooms that maintain their classic charm, with opportunities to elevate them to contemporary luxury. These bedrooms are spacious enough for king-size beds, while the third, smaller bedroom (traditionally a staff room) is ideal as a private home office or guest retreat.

The expansive living room and formal dining room span approximately 43 feet, providing a grand setting for entertaining with multiple seating areas. The charming butler's pantry leads to a spacious, windowed kitchen that is well-appointed and ready for use, while also offering the perfect canvas for personalization to match your unique style.

This home boasts fantastic storage, large windows, and hardwood floors throughout, blending timeless elegance with modern possibilities.

Enjoy life in this historic and vibrant Upper West Side neighborhood, with Riverside Park at your doorstep, exceptional dining and shopping, and easy access to major transportation, including the 1, 2, 3 subways and the M104, M11, and M96 bus lines.

The building's intricately designed wrought iron doors open to a stunning lobby with ornately sculpted coffered ceilings, marble floors, and stained-glass windows, evoking the grandeur of a bygone era. This long-established cooperative offers a 24-hour attended lobby, live-in superintendent, porters, and bike storage. Residents enjoy a pet-friendly community, and subject to board approval, the building permits in-unit laundry, co-purchasing, guarantors, and pied- -terre ownership. A 2% flip tax is to be paid by the purchaser, and financing up to 66.67% is permitted.

This exceptional home is easily shown by appointment.
