CORNER CLASSIC BY RIVERSIDE PARK


In 1930, the renowned master architects Gronenberg & Leuchtag created one of New York’s most treasured buildings: 50 Riverside Drive – a formidable, handsome beauty with grand proportions and a supreme perch on one of the most convenient and coveted locations on the Upper West Side. This stretch-out, classic home is testament to this timeless vision – an important, inspiring find that is ready for its next exciting chapter.


A welcoming entry gallery spills into a bright residential hall that gracefully leads you to all of this home's big rooms. A treasured layout and jumbo scale unfolds, creating a classic canvas with an easy-living flow. A large living/dining room is the heart of this resplendent residence. Naturally lit by a trio of big windows, the living room is served by an extra-large, adjacent, eat-in, windowed kitchen. This home is ideal for stretching-out and refined entertaining.


Quite separate from the core of this residence are the peaceful, grandly scaled bedrooms -- both with en suite, windowed, classic baths. The primary bedroom is a corner suite (cross breezes anyone?), and offers huge closets and room for a sitting area. Its jumbo bath offers a soaking tub. The large guest bedroom, currently configured as a bonus living room/office, is a flexible and fantastic bedroom suite -- ideal for all of life's growing needs.


Throughout this residence, the closets are plentiful and immense. Underfoot are beautiful original hardwood floors, and soaring above are high ceilings with original plasterwork. Everywhere you look there is soul and beauty – and potential. Here, there is a good feeling – a feeling anchored in the classic comfort that comes with time.


Sweetly positioned in its treasured, historic building, this home enjoys the benefits of its full-service address. With a top tier, seasoned staff that includes round-the-clock doormen, a resident superintendent, laundry/bike/storage rooms, and a playroom, life here is easy and convenient. Nearby is most every area cultural, educational, dining, and shopping destination, supreme access to Riverside Park, easy access to playgrounds, ballfields, transportation, and more. Life here is good -- and fun.


In 1930, Gronenberg & Leuchtag envisioned grand beauty and grace standing proudly by Riverside Park. Today, that classic beauty and grace are right here waiting for you – ready for your vision.
