Description

Floating Above the Hudson

Perfectly positioned on the 10th floor of 37 Riverside Drive at 76th Street, this classic prewar home is graced with stunning park and river views to the north- gorgeous light from every window. A timeless space of enduring elegance and extraordinary potential.

A grand gallery welcomes you off the semi-private landing, flanked by three closets, and sets the tone for the gracious proportions found throughout.

The stunning corner living room occupies the northeast corner of the home, with a picture-scale, double window framing Riverside Park, the Hudson River, and a direct sightline to the GW Bridge- all bathed in glorious light.

Returning through the gallery, the formal dining room is an elegant and sun-filled space. It can be easily converted to a third bedroom, as others in the line have done.

The kitchen is a chef's delight- white cabinetry with deep pull-out drawers, generous built-in pantry storage, a Viking double wall oven, GE microwave, four-burner gas cooktop, stainless steel sink, dishwasher, built-in desk, and a newer Liebherr refrigerator and freeze and a charming built-in banquette.

En route to/from the kitchen, an in-unit Miele washer and dryer- with dedicated space for folding or additional storage makes laundry seamless. Tucked within the kitchen itself, the original staff half bath is perfectly poised to become a handsome powder room.

The primary bedroom is a serene and oversized retreat in the northwest corner with direct river views, a windowed en-suite bath, walk-in closet, and additional standard closet- exceptional storage by any measure. The second bedroom is equally generous, with elegant wood built-ins and its own windowed en-suite bath.

Additional highlights include custom window treatments- all by Douglas Hunter, with dual rollers for precise light control- recessed high-hat lighting throughout the kitchen wing, prewar moldings, antique brass knobs and other distinctive hardware.

Oversized windows at this elevated floor clear all neighboring buildings, ensuring unobstructed northern views of the Hudson River, and beyond. This lovely home has been carefully maintained, and it shows.
