Description

ALL S ARE BY APPOINTMENT ONLY - PLEASE VIEW THE VIDEO FOR MORE INFORMATION

Walking from the private elevator landing and into the foyer of this spectacular home, you will see how special it is.

The spacious formal dining room has a big window and custom built-ins that provide lots of great storage. The living room also has big picture windows and French doors that open to the newly replaced, 1000 sq. ft. wrap terrace. With its sweeping river and city views this home offers an urban oasis for the new owner.

The windowed kitchen offers custom cabinets, granite counters, a water filter, and top appliances including a Viking stove with a griddle.

All three of the main apartment bedrooms are flooded with light and two (including the primary) have updated en-suite bathrooms.

There is an extra bedroom that is the perfect guest room or home office with a full bathroom, washer/dryer, and its own entrance located just down the private hallway.

Additional features are hardwood floors, split central A/C, crown molding, recessed lights and speakers, a charming window seat, and a powder room.

The history of this one-of-a-kind penthouse is wonderful. It was the former residence of world-famous songwriter Ira Gershwin, and his brother George lived in the penthouse right next door on the other elevator landing!

33 Riverside Drive is a pet and pied-a-terre friendly co-op that offers a doorman, live-in super, storage, and bike rooms. Not only will you have Riverside Park right outside your door, but just blocks away is the best shopping and convenient transportation options proving you can have it all!

Maintenance is reflective of a one-time $30,000 credit towards the maintenance by the seller. Actual maintenance is $8,963
