The main level has a gracious flow ideal for entertaining. An elegant entry hall opens into an expansive and classically proportioned living room, featuring a wood-burning fireplace with handsome marble mantle, wide plank quarter-sawn oak floors, French doors opening to the enormous roof terrace, direct river views to the east and south through two walls of huge windows, and recessed art-lighting. Also off the entry hall is a mahogany paneled library, leading to a Dupioni silk-clad dining room with impressive Manhattan skyline views and parquet de Versailles floors. The huge eat-in Chef’s kitchen features Sub-Zero and Viking appliances, granite countertops, a large island with butcher-block top and a built-in banquette dining area. With a separate service entrance, the kitchen leads to a large laundry and storage room as well as a home office, converted from the former staff rooms.
The home’s private bedroom quarters are up a gracious stair. There are two luxurious master suites, one with a wood-burning fireplace, and the other a sumptuous corner room with east and north exposures. Both feature sweeping river, city and bridge views, spacious windowed baths, and generous closet space. A private hall leads to a third guest or secondary bedroom also with two exposures (west and north), and a large terrace with stunning views. The home includes six zones of air conditioning, audio system with built-in speakers in all rooms, and service entrances on both levels.
Built in 1931, the legendary River House is one of New York’s grandest and most coveted apartment houses, with a level of service rarely seen.
