Property Description for 305 West 98th Street, 7-AN
Enjoy this serene apartment in the Schuyler Arms, an Upper Westside Beaux-Arts landmark that sits on a leafy block off Riverside Drive. An approximate 300 square foot terrace is the crowning glory in this duplex penthouse. Enjoy sunsets while you dine al-fresco or as a gathering spot for you and your guests.
This top floor 2 bedroom, 2 bath home offers the type of layout not usually seen outside of a town house. This charming home is a perfect space for entertaining as well as a cherished private retreat. An entry foyer leads to a large living and dining area with soaring 10'5" ceilings, three large windows and an adjacent pass through kitchen. Down two short stairs is the second bedroom, currently used as a library, with 11' ceilings, two windows and walk-in closet. A full bath and pantry complete this level. On the upper level is the master suite with two exposures, a walk-in and en-suite bath. Adjacent to the master suite is an area perfect for home office or nursery. The apartment also features hardwood floors and copious storage. Two glass doors open onto the majestic 21-foot long landscaped terrace with open city views to the Hudson River.
The Schuyler Arms was originally three separate buildings from 1899 to 1904. The Schuyler Arms on 98th Street, with its distinctive open courtyard entrance, was originally operated as a hotel. The buildings - the south one on 98th Street and the two buildings north on 99th Street, were combined and converted to a cooperative in 1981. 305 West 98th Street is full service coop offering 24-hour doorman, live-in resident manager and a laundry room on the main level. There is also a second entrance on 99th street for extra convenience. Maintenance includes cable and internet. There is both indoor and outdoor bike storage (with a wait list). Pets are welcome with board approval. Sorry, no pied a terres, or extra storage available; W/Ds not allowed in the units. A 2% flip tax paid by seller.
Neighborhood shopping includes Whole Foods, Trader Joe's and the West Side Market. Riverside Park's dog runs, playgrounds, bike paths, gardens, tennis courts and the boat basin are all just a short distance away. Convenient public transportation includes the 96th Street subway and cross-town buses are all a few blocks from the apartment.

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.
