The kitchen is separate and windowed featuring over 9’ ceilings, allowing for abundant storage options. The primary bedroom, with an ensuite windowed bathroom, measures as big as a standard living room at 12.5 feet by 16 feet and has two exposures. The grand scale room allows for a king-size bed plus plenty of space for a comfortable seating and office area.

The second bedroom, also notably large, can function as a bedroom or an office. Both bedrooms face west, offering pleasant views of trees and low-rise buildings and provides a warm and bright glow. 2A features abundant closet space and ceilings heights ranging from 8.5 feet to over 9.5 feet.

An unusual offering is an exceptionally large storage room that transfers with the sale. Washer/Dryer allowed with board approval.

Riverside Towers is an impeccably run and financially sound cooperative. The building amenities include a 24-hour doorman, live-in resident manager, a beautiful roof deck with breathtaking views, a laundry room, community room, bike room and recently renovated hallways and elevators.

The building allows pied-a-terres, co-purchasing, guarantors, and 75% financing. Pets are permitted with board approval with a maximum of one dog per unit. Subletting is allowed 4 out of 5 years after 2 years of ownership.

There is an ongoing assessment of $100 per month for capital improvements. 2% flip tax paid by buyer.
