Property Description for 812 Riverside Drive, 1

Best price per sf 2-bedroom renovated condo on Riverside Drive - 1,180sf for under $700K! Elevated first floor on quiet block.

Oversized at approximately 1218sf, this beautifully renovated, home offers tremendous value, combining prewar scale with modern convenience. This residence enjoys excellent western light and views over a lovely stretch of Riverside Drive.

Originally a three-bedroom, the layout has been reconfigured to create an oversized two-bedroom home with oversized rooms and great flexibility. The windowed kitchen features a combo washer/dryer, stainless steel appliances (including dishwasher and built-in microwave), Quartz stone countertops, and ample cabinet storage.

The generous windowed dining area (formerly the third bedroom) is large enough to host gatherings or function as an expansive home office. Both bedrooms face west and are exceptionally large, offering wonderful natural light throughout the day. The windowed bathroom is impressively scaled, with double sinks and elegant finishes, rarely found in this price range.

The building is a well-maintained, prewar elevator condominium with a beautiful marble lobby, live-in superintendent, laundry in the basement and private storage (available for a fee) and a part time attended lobby 5 PM to midnight daily.

Situated close to the architecturally beautiful Audubon Park Historic District, this apartment offers easy access to the 1 (157th) and C (155th) trains, as well as a wide array of restaurants, cafes, and grocery stores nearby. Outdoor lovers will enjoy being close to both Riverside Park and Riverbank State Park. With close proximity to the Westside Highway and George Washington Bridge, commuting by car is just as convenient.

Washington Heights | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Washington Heights, a hilly neighborhood on Manhattan’s northern tip known for its affordable apartments, preserved pre-war buildings, and Dominican food. Some would argue that it's a hidden gem and one of Manhattan's last neighborhoods that has retained its culture. The large swath of land is bordered by Inwood to the north along Dyckman Street, by Harlem to the South along 155th Street, by the Harlem River to the east, and the Hudson River to the West. It is the highest natural point on the Island of Manhattan. 

Despite its high residential density, Washington Heights and Inwood have not seen modern housing construction in more than a decade other than relatively small housing units. Midtown Manhattan, Battery Park, TriBeCa, Chelsea, and Hell’s Kitchen, on the other hand, have seen an increase in building. Most of the high rise construction belongs to hospitals such as New York Presbyterian, Columbia University Medical Center, and educational institutions like Yeshiva University and Boricua College. 

Washington Heights has access to amazing green spaces like The Cloisters, Fort Washington Park, Highbridge Park and Fort Tryon Park. There is no shortage of historical landmarks either. Remember General George Washington set up his camp in Washington Heights during the Revolutionary War. He used the elevated neighborhood to his tactical advantage to spot the Redcoats. As history would have it, his plan didn’t work out so well and the British occupied New York for seven years.
