5 Riverside Drive #3C

Sophisticated Triple Mint Riverside Drive Two Bedroom Home

3C presents the perfect combination of prewar Art Deco elegance blended with 21st century style and ease of living. Facing Riverside Park, the oversized picture tilt-and-turn window in the sunken living room reveals the glory of the park throughout the seasons. An Art Deco decorative fireplace centers the large living room with ample area for a full size dining table allowing for gracious entertaining. Adding to the elegance of the home are ebony-herringbone hardwood floors and high ceilings. There are two large master chambers, one faces the park and enjoys a corner exposure west and north with beautiful views of the park revealed through dramatic corner windows. The other king-sized master bedroom has an en-suite windowed marble bath, two closets, one a large custom fitted walk-in closet.

Walnut custom cabinets line the windowed chefs kitchen outfitted with top of the line stainless steel appliances, and stunning Crema Marfil marble countertops extending into a dining counter. No detail has been overlooked in this stunning renovation including the addition of a stacked washer and dryer in the apartment.
