Description

Charming top-floor, jewel box, 1-bedroom with lush treetop views and Storage Unit in pre-war gem on the Upper West Side!

A proper entryway with large closet and built-in bench welcomes you and provides wonderful storage upon entering this home. Leading into the great room, coveted pre-war details like 11’ high ceilings and original hardwood floors have been enhanced by an open floorplan incorporating a newly renovated kitchen that compliments the original style with warm grey cabinetry, stone countertops, subway tile backsplash and new appliances.

In the living area, enjoy direct Western views looking onto the treetops of Riverside Park. Built-in bookshelves and an antique mantle anchor the room providing storage as well as design.

The windowed-bathroom was also renovated at the same time as the kitchen and has charming details like marble penny tiled floors, antique decorative tiles and chrome hardware.

The bedroom is ample in size, could easily fit a king-sized bed and boasts a corner closet. For additional storage this unit has a Storage Unit that transfers with sale.

Sitting on Riverside Park’s doorstep, shareholders enjoy walkways, bike paths, sports courts and the River at their front door. This mid-sized coop boasts a live-in Super, central laundry, bike room and storage.

Just a few blocks to the 96th Street 1, 2 and 3 trains, the M5 bus stop out front and easy access to the West Side Highway, 244 Riverside Drive is easily accessible to all parts of the City and beyond making it perfect for a primary resident or a pied a terre.

Co-Purchasing OK. Sublet policy is 2 out of 5 years after living in the unit for 2 years. Sorry, no dogs but the building does allow cats.
