355 Riverside Drive 5w #5W, New York, NY 10025

Rare opportunity to live in a residence designed by Carnegie Hall architect William Tuthill. This special old world prewar doorman home has views to the Hudson river and Riverside Park from the living room and formal dining room as well as the corner master bedroom. Flooded with light this unique residence has 15 oversized windows which lets the sun shine into all rooms with no interior views. Enter into a gracious foyer from a semi private landing (with only 2 apartments per floor). Stop and take in the stunning views from the side by side living room and formal dining room with direct river views. French doors separate your entertaining spaces. The dining room has a beautiful hand painted mural above paneled wainscoting, along with a south window over land marked Beaux Arts mansions. The maids room has been converted to a great home office with a powder room and hidden washer/dryer. The kitchen has a wonderful combination of original wood cabinets that have been stripped and new granite counters and stainless appliances. A separate bedroom wing just off the foyer you will find the master bedroom which has a north view as well as the direct river views and has a renovated bathroom en-suite. Two more bedrooms share another renovated bathroom. There are ceilings just shy of 10 feet high, beautifully refinished floors and skim coated walls. Live in Super, Doorman from 8:00AM to midnight 7 days a week. This lovely home is in the midst of the Columbia University neighborhood with great restaurants, shopping---and not far from the new 60,000 square foot Whole Foods.
