Two units tastefully combined and imaginatively renovated in 2012 create a warm &welcoming entertainer’s dream - with an open concept kitchen, spacious & light-filled living and dining rooms. The private master suite and adjacent library study provides tranquility and function apart from the hustle of midtown, a direct subway ride away.

your art and books. Curl up in the window seat to watch the boats go by. The adjoining dining room can accommodate your formal dinners, casual buffets, or an intimate dinner for two. Crown-molding and a guest subway-tiled bathroom and several large closets round out this
cooking, dining, and living space.

The master suite faces directly west over the Hudson River and has been renovated with his and her custom walk-in closets and luxurious bathroom. Sliding doors connect to the adjacent library/study, with custom built-in bookcases, desks and reading nook, ideal for a professional couple. This space could be converted to an additional bedroom, if needed. (See alternate floor plan 1)

A second bedroom, with ensuite bath, occupies its own private wing, also with direct garden, bridge and river views. An additional third bedroom is located off the foyer with open views of Castle Village gardens.

The Castle Village Co-operative pre-war apartment buildings occupy over seven acres above the Hudson River, with beautifully manicured lawns, community gardens, a roof deck with 360 degree views, a children’s playground and outdoor seating areas to sip a late-afternoon
beverage with your neighbors.
