Dobrodošli doma u ovaj prekrasan stan od 885 stopa kvadratnih, jednosoban, s jednom kupaonicom na 14. katu Riverwalk Courta s prozorima od poda do stropa na dvije strane i sjajnim pogledom na East River i most. Stanovi poput ovog ne dolaze često. Kada se pojave, odmah shvatite zašto.

Dnevna soba na uglu od 18 stopa u #14D je mjesto gdje se ovaj stan predstavlja. Dva zida prozora od poda do stropa unose svjetlost iz dva smjera, a na ovoj visini pogledi se protežu preko Queensboro mosta, East Rivera i horizonta Upper East Sidea na način koji očarava. Ovo je prostor o kojem razmišljate kada niste kod kuće.

Blagovaonica se nalazi neposredno uz dnevnu sobu, odvojena iz ugla, široka 10 stopa, s jasnim pogledom prema prozorima. Iza nje, otvorena kuhinja za kuhare s granitnim radnim površinama, uređajima od nehrđajućeg čelika i vrstom skladišta koja čini jednogodišnji stan pravim domom. Spavaća soba je utočište: tiha, odvojena od dnevnih prostora, s velikim prostorom za ormar i mramornom kupaonicom. Ulazni hodnik stvara pravi prag između hodnika i stana. Uz čvrste drvene podove, visoke stropove i perilicu/sušilicu unutar jedinice, svakodnevno iskustvo života ovdje je lako.

Nedavne nadogradnje u #14D uključuju nove drvene podove postavljene širom stana, dodatnu električnu instalaciju za indukcijsku ploču, potpuno nove uređaje i nove prozorske rolete.

Riverwalk Court, dovršen 2008. godine, a razvijen od strane Related Companies, je vodeća zgrada u kompleksu Riverwalk s devet zgrada. Costas Kondylis i partneri dizajnirali su je s stepenastom strukturom i obiljem kutnih prozora, a rezultati su očiti u jedinicama poput ove. Zgrada nudi potpune usluge: 24-satni portir i konzijer, fitness centar s yoginim studijom, dječju igraonicu, prostor za zabavu, krovnu terasu s pogledom od 360 stupnjeva, skladište za bicikle i prostoriju za pakete. Kućni ljubimci su dobrodošli.

Dugačak dvije milje, širok 800 stopa na najširem mjestu, usidren u East Riveru između Midtown Manhattana i Queensa, Roosevelt Island više nalikuje malom gradu unutar New York Cityja nego susjedstvu. Stanovnici šetaju uz obalu rijeke, voze biciklom putem za bicikle i provode vrijeme u FDR Four Freedoms Parku, izvanrednom spomeniku Louisa Kahna na južnom vrhu otoka. Cornell Tech kampus otvoren je 2017. i donio je više energije zajednici otoka. Za javni prijevoz, F vlak vozi s postaje Roosevelt Island, a zračni tramvaj povezuje izravno s 60. i Drugom ulicom u otprilike četiri minute. NYC Ferry dodaje još jednu opciju. Za sve ostalo: Midtown East i Upper East Side su samo nekoliko minuta udaljeni, a sve više stanovnici otkrivaju da im više ne trebaju koliko su očekivali.

Welcome home to this beautiful, 885sf one-bedroom, one bath home on the 14th floor of Riverwalk Court with floor-to-ceiling windows on two sides, and sparkling East River and bridge views. Apartments like this don't come up often. When they do, you understand immediately why.

The 18-foot corner living room in #14D is where this apartment announces itself. Two walls of floor-to-ceiling windows bring in light from two directions, and at this height the views sweep across the Queensboro Bridge, the East River, and the Upper East Side skyline in a way that mesmerizes. This is the room you think about when you're not home.

The dining area sits just off the living room, carved out from the corner at 10 feet wide, with a clear sightline through to the windows. Behind it, an open chef's kitchen with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and the kind of storage that makes a one-bedroom feel like a proper home. The bedroom is a retreat: quiet, separated from the living areas, with generous closet space and a marble bath. An entry foyer creates a real threshold between the hall and the apartment. Add in solid hardwood floors, high ceilings, and in-unit washer/dryer, and the daily experience of living here is easy.

Recent improvements to #14D include new hardwood flooring installed throughout, added electric line to support an induction stove, brand new appliances, and new window blinds.

Riverwalk Court, completed in 2008 and developed by Related Companies, is the flagship building in the nine-building Riverwalk complex. Costas Kondylis and Partners designed it with a stepped plan and abundant corner windows, and the results are evident in units like this one. The building runs full service: 24-hour doorman and concierge, a fitness center with yoga studio, children's playroom, entertainment lounge, roof deck with 360-degree views, bike storage, and a package room. Pets welcome.

Two miles long, 800 feet wide at its broadest, anchored in the East River between Midtown Manhattan and Queens, Roosevelt Island is less like a neighborhood and more like a small town that happens to sit inside New York City. Residents walk the riverfront promenade, bike the greenway loop, and spend time at FDR Four Freedoms Park, Louis Kahn's quietly extraordinary memorial at the island's southern tip. The Cornell Tech campus opened in 2017 and has brought more energy to the Island community. For transit, the F train runs from Roosevelt Island station, and the aerial tram connects directly to 60th and Second in about four minutes. The NYC Ferry adds another option. For everything else: Midtown East and the Upper East Side are minutes away, and increasingly, residents find they don't need them as much as they expected.
