355 RIVERSIDE Drive #1E

Serenity on Riverside Drive This beautifully designed one-bedroom is a truly special Riverside Drive home in a premier pre-war cooperative. Every principal room looks into the building's exceptionally well-maintained garden, creating a peaceful escape filled with greenery, climbing vines, and views of neighboring historic architecture with handsome copper detailing. The gracious living and dining room features custom lighting, elegant sconces, floor-to-ceiling built-in shelving, and a wired speaker system. A built-in entry bench and thoughtfully designed storage throughout the apartment make everyday living remarkably easy. The charming, windowed kitchen has beautiful sage-green cabinetry, excellent storage, gas cooking, a dishwasher, and a generous sink overlooking the garden. Natural light and greenery make it an especially inviting place to cook. The serene bedroom enjoys garden views and an extraordinary wall of custom closets, offering the kind of storage rarely found in a Manhattan apartment. A European-style tilt-and-turn window tilts inward for fresh air and swings fully open like a door, providing direct, private access to the shared garden. The windowed bathroom features a soaking tub and an oversized frosted-glass window framed by vines and greenery. With custom millwork, abundant storage, and carefully considered details in every room, this is a home that feels both beautifully designed and genuinely comfortable. The apartment retains grandfathered infrastructure for a ductless mini-split cooling system, including a designated compressor location on the garden patio. Designed by Carnegie Hall architect William Tuthill, 355 Riverside Drive is a 1925 cooperative with 37 residences across 14 floors, many offering city, park, and river views. The pet-friendly building offers laundry facilities in the basement, allows 80% financing, and permits subletting for one to two years within any five-year period. The location offers exceptional convenience, with neighborhood shopping and restaurants close at hand. Riverside Park is just steps away, Columbia University is nearby, and transportation options include the subway at 110th Street, the M104 bus on Broadway, and the M5 bus, which stops across the street on Riverside Drive.
