Property Description for 140 Riverside Drive, 15-K

Located in the coveted Normandy at 86th & Riverside Drive, Apartment #15K is a stunning, sun-filled and beautifully gut-renovated three-bedroom, two-bathroom riverfront home that captivates immediately with its panoramic open Hudson River views; one of the most iconic vantage points in the city with extraordinary sunsets at day's end. Perched on a high floor, there is natural light throughout the apartment along with two exposures offering both cross-light and air in both directions.

As you enter into the foyer, you can admire the restored, original herringbone floors, prewar details and coat closet. Off the foyer is the windowed chef's kitchen complete with custom millwork and marble countertops, Wolf range, Subzero fridge, and washer/dryer closet tucked within the grey Shaker cabinetry. From the farmhouse sink, gaze through a generous pass-thru over the bar-like countertop into the dining room, featuring original trim and chair rail. A "secret closet" built behind the southern wall of the room can house linens, wine and more.

As you continue through the apartment you will enter the gracious living room and be immediately struck by the sweeping views of the Hudson River and the tree tops of Riverside Park framed by new double-paned windows (featured throughout the apartment). Built-in bookshelves line the southern wall and frame a handsome fireplace housing a Hearth cabinet - the only ventless, no gas, no electric fireplace allowed in New York City. The bespoke marble work and mantel frame adorn this cozy spot to enjoy fires in the winter overlooking the magnificent Hudson.

A separate foyer leads to the 3 generously-sized bedrooms (all with California Closets) and includes a linen closet. Facing the river is the primary bedroom with an oversized walk-in closet. The primary bath is custom-designed with stunning marble slabs throughout, including a spa tub and rain shower. The second bedroom holds a beautifully-renovated ensuite bathroom and two large closets. The third bedroom features distinctive curved windows facing East and two closets.

This home was gut-renovated in 2018 with great attention to detail and luxury finishes. Every room features custom finishes, including the window shades and vented millwork covering the hidden, thru-wall A/C units and radiators. From the marble countertops and Watermark fixtures to exquisitely maintained original details throughout, this home features everything you'd hope for in a prewar home with modern touches for your every need.

Located in the heart of the Upper West Side and across the street from the beauty and recreation of Riverside Park, The Normandy is a landmarked art deco building designed by famed architect Emery Roth in 1938. Designed with two wings, the building spans from 86th street through to 87th street, each side with a separate entrance and elevator bank and connected by a grand, windowed center lobby overlooking the front garden. This full-service cooperative offers an attentive staff of full-time doormen, handymen, porters, and a live-in resident manager. The Normandy has every amenity: two new gyms, laundry, children's playroom, community room, bike storage and storage (wait-list), and a huge furnished, landscaped roof deck with 360-degree views east to Central Park, south to downtown and the World Trade Center, west to the gorgeous Hudson River and beyond, and north to the George Washington Bridge. Pet and pied-a terre friendly, the building allows 75% financing and co-purchasing.

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.
