New Price!
Entering from your own elevator landing, 15A immediately greets you with a flood of southern light washing in from the oversized living room. This rarely available A line apartment at 173-175 Riverside Drive has three exposures, two large corner bedrooms, and an inviting and elegant layout. The entry gallery is the hub of this gracious home; to your left is the formal dining room with windows facing north and east, and to your right is the living room with full city and side river views: a 55’ span. Remember parties? You’ll want to have one as soon as you can in this living room that easily fits a baby grand. The 15th floor has 9’6” foot high ceilings, an extra 6” higher than lower floors, that makes this apartment feel all the more open and airier.
The two well-proportioned bedrooms are off a separate hallway. The enormous main bedroom has windows facing south and west, and a second bedroom has windows facing north and west. Both bedrooms are bathed in light and have ensuite bathrooms and large closets. The eat-in kitchen as currently configured has a vented cooktop, double wall oven, and under-counter W/D units. A sweet staff room with full ensuite bathroom makes for a great home office or small guest room. Through-wall AC units are installed in the living room, dining room, and both bedrooms.
