Description

Welcome to 5 Riverside Drive, Unit 5D, located in the heart of the Upper West Side, where Riverside Drive meets West 73rd Street. This spacious one bedroom home offers classic elegance in a fully and thoughtfully renovated package. The seven oversized windows help fill the space with light from northern and western views that look out onto Riverside Park and offer sunset vistas over the majestic Hudson River. Upon entering the apartment you are greeted with a gracious foyer, newly refinished herringbone oak floors, and a sizable walk-in closet. The sunken living space has a charming electric fireplace and decorative mantel, finely crafted built-ins, and an abundance of overhead lighting, which has been smartly implemented throughout the apartment. The room easily accommodates both living and dining furniture, with room to spare. The windowed, open kitchen features top-of-the-line appliances, a sprawling custom Caesarstone countertop, and a sea of cabinet space. Down a short, but expertly designed hallway (complete with floor-to-ceiling built-in storage) is the serene king-sized bedroom. The real showstopper of the apartment is the dreamy primary closet, with over 50 sqft of custom-designed space, which can be neatly concealed behind double pocket doors. Finally; the bright, windowed bathroom is equipped with a large vanity, a glass-enclosed spa shower, gorgeous marble tiles, a heated floor, and stacked Bosch washer and dryer. Situated in the iconic, pre-war 5 Riverside Drive, this full-service coop offers a full-time doorman, porter, live-in super, storage for rent, a bike room, and additional common laundry. The building was constructed in 1936 and consists of 19 stories and 100 residences. 66% financing is allowed. Pets are welcome; but sorry, no pied-a-terres, guarantors, or co-purchasing. The location of this home is truly unbeatable. Just across the street from Riverside Park, nearby to Trader Joe's, Fairway, and Citarella, Lincoln Center and Juilliard are just a short distance away, plus all that the vibrant UWS has to offer with its charming shops and delightful restaurants. Don't miss this opportunity to own a piece of Manhattan's Upper West Side. Reach out today to schedule a private viewing and experience everything that 5 Riverside Drive, Unit 5D has to offer.
