"I call architecture frozen music," Goethe once wrote. If so, this expansive classic 5, 2 BR prewar residence on a lofty corner of a double-wide, landmark block is waiting for its next great conductor. Watched over by an equestrian statue of Civil War General Franz Sigel at the gateway to Riverside Park, Apartment 6C sits at the center of timeless Upper West Side sophistication. 340 Riverside Drive, a 52-unit cooperative built with finesse in 1925, contains only substantially scaled five- and six-room homes, offering an elite level of privacy, community, and classic New York character. Among its artistic denizens were Jasper Johns and Susan Sontag while Billie Holiday once famously performed in jazz critic Leonard Feather's nearby living room.

Although the space requires restoration, its flexible, generous layout remains entirely intact. A congenial central foyer serves as a gallery from which all major entertaining rooms gracefully flow. The expansive living room and smart formal dining room are designed for serious entertaining. A large windowed eat-in kitchen offers plenty of room to create a chef's dream haven.

For the living quarters, a fine primary bedroom has its own ensuite bathroom. And a private second bedroom is served by a hall bath and attended by a neighborly bird household residing in their own arboreal abode. The generous floor plan easily adapts to accommodate a proper third bedroom or home office.

This full-service building provides 24 hour doorman service, a live-in resident manager and attentive porters to ensure seamless convenience. In-unit washer and dryer installations are permitted with board approval. Residents also appreciate the on-site central laundry room, bike room, and a pet-friendly policy. Please note the monthly assessment of $601.96 until 12/2027 and a 3% flip tax.

The idylls of Riverside Park, two handy subway stops, a diverse array of culinary, retail, bus services, and Columbia University are ready to satisfy every need.

Apartment 6C is ready for a visionary looking to compose their own masterpiece. Take the A train up to Duke Ellington Boulevard - the block's other name honoring a more recent maestro - to experience the possibilities for yourself.
