Description

Located in the distinguished River House cooperative on 52nd Street, this sophisticated 6 room residence with big, generously proportioned rooms, has the grandeur only found in 10 to 12 room pre-war apartments. There are very few apartments like this NYC, grand in scale yet with just 6 rooms. A private elevator opens to the centerpiece of the home, a grand central foyer, which leads to the 4 main rooms of the home.

The living room with original hardwood floors and decorative fireplace has intoxicating and panoramic views of the East River. This room flows into the neighboring library/second bedroom, with custom bookshelves, en-suite full bath and lovely bar area for entertaining. There is not a time of day that the movement on the water does not provide beautiful light and reflection into these rooms.

The master bedroom, with en-suite bath and walk in closet faces West. There is a gracious formal dining room adjacent to a renovated windowed kitchen. The home also features a staff room/office and two large closets in the foyer.

Everything in this apartment has been refurbished including new windows, new kitchen, baths and air conditioning. All owners of River House have the option to join The River Club, complete with two indoor tennis courts, swimming pool, squash court, fitness center, meeting room and private guest rooms for short term stays. Built as a cooperative in 1931 by William Bottomley, one enters the River House at the end of a cul-de-sac, through a wrought-iron gate into a private cobblestone courtyard with fountain and driveway.

Two doormen and a concierge greet guests to the River House. Interesting fact: Originally, the building featured a pier where residents could dock their yachts, but that amenity was lost with the construction of the FDR Drive.
