Property Description for 140 Riverside Drive, 15-H

RARELY OFFERED RIVER-VIEW RAMBLER

COVETED, SUN-FILLED, HIGH-FLOOR, IMMENSE, CORNER 3 BEDROOM (CAN EASILY BECOME 4 BEDROOM!)

BIG VIEWS - BIG SCALE - BIG SOUL - BIG OPPORTUNITY

People revere the H-Line at the Normandy for good reason. Why? Well, because the H-line is an oversized corner home that faces West and North. The most treasured H-line homes, however, are those on the Normandy's highest floors. Their trophy position gives its lucky residents some of the most heroic Hudson River views that exist on the Upper Westside. These homes -- these treasured few -- are rarely offered for sale. The Normandy's high-floor H-Line residences come to market generationally -- typically once in a lifetime. Well, now's your chance...

Floating 15 stories above Riverside Park, and featuring world-class water views from most every oversized window in this oversized residence, this feel-good, flexible home is a standout opportunity for sure. If a rambling 3 bedroom home with 3 baths is a priority, then you’ll embrace its current layout — the big foyer and gallery and huge formal dining room will suit you perfectly. If, however, you need a big 4th bedroom, then lean-in to the variety of options that this generously proportioned home offers — (refer to potential alternate floorplan as just one possible option).

The living room is truly grand, the main bedroom features the Normandy’s iconic curved, corner window (with jaw-dropping views stretching up the Hudson to The GW Bridge) — and an en suite windowed bath — and the two big guest bedrooms are served by their own full baths. With a large, windowed kitchen offering dual sinks, dual dishwashers, and a washer/dryer, this special residence — with its immense closet space, high ceilings, and its primo perch on the river — is a winsome standout for sure.

Perfectly located on one of the most ideal positions by Riverside Park — where the park is wide and most lush — 140 Riverside Drive is a full service Prewar cooperative in the heart of the Upper West Side. Famous for its supreme staff, dual entrances, grand lobby, front garden, and planted roof garden, the Emory Roth designed Normandy is a neighborhood classic. There are storage bins, a bike room, a play room, a gym, and a live-in superintendent — not to mention an enviable proximity to most every area cultural, dining, fitness, and shopping destination.

Rarely does a residence this grand, at this level, in this line, in this building, and with these river views appear on these pages. Your chance to make this home your very own is right here.

(Co-purchasing, pets, pieds-a-terre, and up to 75% financing permitted.)

(Flip Tax: 5% of net proceeds minus broker's fee -- to be split between buyer and seller)

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.
