Description

River VIEWS!! If you have been waiting for a Hudson River view, your time has come. This 1,500+ sq. foot 2BR / 2BA prewar apartment has eight (8) full size windows on the Hudson, with gracious and well-proportioned rooms and hallways that represent the best of "Pre-war" design. As you enter 11B you find yourself in a west-facing 8 × 14 Gallery with a double-wide coat closet. From the center of the Gallery, walk directly into either the dining / kitchen room (21' x 13'8") or the living room (23' x 14'5"). Both the Dining and Living rooms have double-wide windows facing the Hudson. In several other "B" line apartments, shareholders have removed the wall between these two front living spaces, creating an expansive "Great Room" of well over 600 sq. feet, and 29 feet across. The 11B kitchen includes basic elements, but can be built out with flexible design by the new owner. 395 Riverside's architect designed seven apartments per floor in the original layouts (13 bedrooms total), but none of the bedrooms can hold a candle to the primary bedroom of the "B" line. The 11B Primary bedroom has an "en-suite" bathroom, three closets and three (3) windows on the Hudson, including a signature window in the NW corner of the building that faces diagonally toward an open view of the George Washington Bridge. Built in 1924, 395 Riverside was developed by Schwartz & Gross and designed by architect Gaetan Ajello. There is a beautifully appointed and meticulously maintained lobby with 24-hour doorman, live-in super, porters and maintenance staff. 395 Riverside is one of the best managed co-ops on Riverside Drive, with a healthy reserve fund, moderate monthly charges and excellent financials. This pet friendly co-op faces Riverside Park and sits within the bustling Columbia University neighborhood. Numerous restaurants, the popular West Side Market, the Hungarian Pastry Shop, and the Cathedral of St. John the Divine are all within a block or two. No fewer than four K-8 schools call this area home – the School at Columbia, Bank Street, Cathedral School and St. Hilda's. Mount Sinai / St. Luke's medical center is one of the largest in the city, and sits just two blocks from 395 Riverside. If you can't make the scheduled Open House windows, please reach out to make an appointment.
