Description

This recently renovated home is sunny, spacious, remarkably quiet, and boasts ample closet and storage space. Featuring wide-plank white oak floors and charming views of townhouse gardens through expansive windows, the apartment exudes a bright and cheerful atmosphere. Upon entry, the proper foyer creates a sense of home, gracefully dividing the living space from the bedroom. As you enter the living area, you are basked in light from a wall of west-facing windows. The living room is spacious with room for a dining area that accommodates six. Off the living room, the windowed kitchen showcases new pale-gray porcelain tile floors, Cambria quartz countertops and backsplash, generous cabinetry and counter space, and new appliances including a Bosch dishwasher, Samsung oven and microwave, and GE refrigerator. With a flexible layout, the kitchen can be opened to the living room with a breakfast bar. On the opposite end of the apartment lies the bedroom, which is large and easily accommodates a king size bed with room for additional furniture. This room benefits from excellent natural light through northern and western exposures and features two extra-large closets, including a walk-in. The newly renovated bathroom is conveniently located just outside the bedroom for easy guest access. Riverview East is a full-service co-op located on a tree-lined block filled with charming townhouses. The building offers a newly renovated lobby, 24-hour door attendant, live-in resident manager, laundry room, garage, and bike storage. Pets and subletting are permitted with some restrictions. Situated in the heart of Kips Bay, the building benefits from proximity to a diverse array of restaurants, bars, cafes, and shops, with easy access to Trader Joe’s, Whole Foods, Fairway, AMC Kips Bay 15-plex, NYU Langone Medical Center, Target, Equinox, and Crunch. Proximate to major buses and subways including the 6 train, and an easy commute to Grand Central, the location cannot be beat.
