370 Riverside Drive #9E

Sun Drenched Pre-War Charm

Apartment 9E has all rooms facing south and is flooded with sunlight through its eight tall windows. The layout is large and flexible, originally with two spacious bedrooms. The second bedroom was later divided into two rooms and as such, 9E is currently configured with a sizeable primary bedroom plus an office and guest room. The flexible layout will allow you to restore the spacious two bedroom option or even create a three bedroom.

Upon entering, you will find an elegant foyer where you may find yourself selecting places for your favorite pieces of art. Stroll through the apartment and enjoy the ambience. Enter the expansive living room and you’ll be greeted by the crown jewels of this charming apartment – sunny Southern exposures, high ceilings and classic pre-war details including beautiful moldings and oak parquet flooring. Other features include an updated windowed kitchen equipped with a washer/dryer, plenty of closets and two full bathrooms. Constructed in 1922, 370 Riverside Drive is a 15-story brick, limestone, and terra cotta Georgian Revival residential building located in the Morningside Heights Historic District. This full-service building is well managed physically and financially. It includes a landscaped Roof Deck with spectacular views of the Hudson River and the surrounding area, a large Community Room, Children’s Playroom, Bike Storage, Central Laundry and storage units. The building is pet-friendly, and, pied-a-terres, co-purchasing, and guarantors are considered on a case-by-case basis. There is a $485/month capital contribution, but there is no flip tax.

The location is wonderful and will appeal to those who enjoy walking, jogging, biking, or a trip to the dog run. Riverside Park is across the street along with the Hudson River Waterfront Greenway. It is in close proximity to Columbia University and the vibrant culturally rich community that surrounds it, and Morningside Park which is just a few blocks away as are many wonderful restaurants and shops. The 1 train and cross town bus are just two blocks away.
