BIG, BRIGHT, UPGRADED, HIGH-FLOOR, MOVE-IN-READY HOME w/WASHER-DRYER IN PRIZED PRE-WAR BUILDING
CORNER CLASSIC IN COVETED F-LINE IN FULL-SERVICE, TREASURED ADDRESS BY RIVERSIDE PARK
In 1930, the renowned master architects Gronenberg & Leuchtag created one of New York’s most treasured buildings: 50 Riverside Drive – a formidable, handsome beauty with grand proportions and a supreme perch on one of the most convenient and coveted locations on the Upper West Side. This spacious, classic home is a testament to this timeless vision – an important, inspiring find that is move-in ready -- an upgraded classic.
A welcoming entry gallery spills into a bright residential hall that gracefully leads you to all of this home's big rooms. A treasured layout and gracious scale unfold, creating a timeless, generous design that offers a fabulous flow for an expansive life. A large living/dining room is the heart of this resplendent residence. Naturally lit by a wall of big, bright windows, the living room is served by an open-plan, upgraded windowed cook's kitchen. With a jumbo stone-capped dining bar, and top-shelf stainless appliances (including wine fridge), this eat-in kitchen makes refined entertaining a snap in this immense, lofted living/dining/kitchen space.
Quite separate from the core of this residence are the peaceful, grandly scaled bedrooms -- both with en suite, windowed, classic baths. The primary bedroom is a sun-filled, peaceful corner suite (cross breezes anyone?), and offers huge closets and room for a sitting/work area. Its large, classic bath offers a soaking tub. The big, bright, quiet guest bedroom is a flexible, fantastic suite with its own full classic bath -- a bedroom ideal for all of life's growing needs.
Throughout this residence, the closets are plentiful and immense. Underfoot are beautiful original hardwood floors, and soaring above are high ceilings with original plasterwork. Everywhere you look there is soul and beauty – and there is a new washer/dryer and heartwarming built-ins. Here, there is a good feeling – a feeling anchored in the classic comfort that comes with time.
Sweetly positioned in its treasured, historic building, this home enjoys the benefits of its full-service address. With a top tier, seasoned staff that includes round-the-clock doormen, a resident superintendent, laundry/bike/storage rooms, and a playroom, life here is easy and convenient. Nearby is most every area cultural, educational, dining, and shopping destination, supreme access to Riverside Park, easy access to playgrounds, ballfields, transportation, and more. Life here is good -- and fun.
In 1930, Gronenberg & Leuchtag envisioned grand beauty and grace standing proudly by Riverside Park. Today, that classic beauty and grace are right here waiting for you – upgraded and ready for you to move right in.
