Property Description for 33 Riverside Drive, 1/2A1

Located in the lovely prewar cooperative, 33 Riverside Drive, located at 76th Street and Riverside Drive, this oversized convertible three bedroom, two bathroom (with the ability to add a 3rd full bath) maisonette enjoys bucolic views of Riverside Park from every room.

On the entry level, the West facing living room boasts abundant prewar details including beamed ceilings, picture moldings and herringbone floors. The adjacent master suite boasts an en-suite bath with double sinks. Both rooms have direct access to what is now a laundry room/wet bar, but which could also be a powder room, or full bath with stackable washer/dryer.

Elegant straight stairs with storage underneath lead to more entertaining space upstairs with an open renovated kitchen. The second bedroom suite has been partially opened to create a sitting room and hall bathroom with separate tub and shower stall.

This unique and beautiful home could easily be 3 bedrooms, two downstairs, and one upstairs. An additional bathroom can be added on the first floor and the current kitchen on the second floor can be enlarged.

Built in 1928, 33 Riverside Drive was made famous by George and Ira Gershwin who hosted lavish parties in their penthouse homes. This full service cooperative has a 24 hour doorman, live-in super, storage and bike room (as available). Pets and pied-a-terres are allowed.

Upper West Side | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Bracketed on its east and west borders by massive city parks, the Upper West Side (UWS) is known for its greenery, stately and elegant townhomes, safe streets and great schools, all of which make it a very desirable neighborhood for families. The UWS has maintained its community feeling, making it attractive to young professionals and retirees, both of whom want a sense of belonging in the place they call home.

Here you’ll find many apartment buildings, especially those along Central Park West. Historic architecture abounds, anchored by four luxury co-ops - the San Remo, Majestic, Century and Eldorado apartments - all of which have two towers on their interiors. They were built in the 1930s and their design was predicated on a 1929 building code that imposed a height limit on residences facing the street. There are also impressive row houses near Riverside Drive throughout the W 70 and 80 Streets. Above the 90s, you will find smaller buildings where walk-ups are very reasonably priced.

There are several world-class museums and venues dedicated to the performing arts. Plentiful dining can be found in the UWS. You will find everything from quaint Jewish delis serving up bagels and a schmear to sophisticated fine dining that has earned multiple Michelin stars, and everything you could possibly want in between. There is also abundant shopping and a vibrant nightlife.
